I even felt like that after fifteen months of travelling with my family. I was the only one not ready to go home. And I felt it after my first five caminos, even the one that lasted nearly three months. But this last one...not so much. I wanted...

Drawn in my Credential by the vivacious French hospitalero this sello is a precious memento!
On my recent Invierno/Ingles Camino about half the time the date was not added to the daily sellos, so I did it after going to my room. A few even handed me the stamp to do it myself. Very impersonal, but I do not speak Spanish and mostly stayed...
