      Ahh, the memories! So many fears, so little time! But I made it! Being that I’m a native Spanish speaker, I wasn’t worried about language issues, other than knowing I would be in France when starting out and I don’t speak a word of French, but...

      Beauty is all around Us. Taking the time to slow down, switch off and just 'give ourselves' to the Camino can be such a wonderful immersive experience. I think I end up walking so slowly, because I just want to soak it all in. I want to savour...

      Ok I'll go again. . . This on the way in to Ventosa left me with a lump in my throat. I found the words just beautiful, how proud they are of their village and how it ends with "We spend our lives looking for what we already have. It's just a...

      Good ole lavender!!!! I would've loved that treatment but my blisters did not materialized long after Viana so understandably I skipped "The Oasis" :rolleyes:

      This was at an establishment called “Oasis” in Viana. After a frustrating search trying to find help for my blisters, this shop offered foot treatments with cold water infused with lavender. Ahh! Just what this tired pilgrim needed!!!

      I don’t think you are overthinking, but then again, I myself am an overthinker (“I overthink, therefore I am” as I jokingly say about myself). You might want to look at my recent thread “Post Camino Insights” to get a sense on what it’s been...

      Actually, I wasn’t planning to do another one because I was so exhausted and drained after this one, but…I’ve decided I’m moving to Spain and I’m applying for an NLV visa. I don’t know exactly where I’ll live (Valencia? Malaga? Granada? Sevilla?)...

      Well..if it wasn't an easy going towards Ibaneta, I can assure you it would have been 100 times worse going straight down for Roncesvalles ( even if you'd not met any bulls... but then we can't be sure of that) On any case you now have a "cool"...
