Day 16 on the Camino. I made it all the way to Arzua with a mix of driving and walking. It’s tough just now with the storm still passing through.
From Seville I travelled seven days without meeting a single person or saying hello, heard the first English voice in Salamanca, then my first...
So today, my Camino friends.
Today has brought me understanding and inspiration and answers.
Today I didn’t walk the Camino, nor do I think I will tomorrow. Where I am at now, on my own, in the beauty of nature and solitude, alone yet not alone, this is where I need to be just now to connect...
For those who have Facebook I wrote this an hour ago to my community back in Northumberland, England. But it has relevance for anyone who has doubts and needs a little inspiration. This little miracle happened last night on the road to Monasterio.

My truth is that I’m finding this journey so far cold, lonely, a worry, a search for stamps in soulless places that all seems...

Oh dear. Please help me with some information here. There is no way I...
Blessings, thank you Tom. I never expected to find this kind of support on the forum. It is sooo welcome.
Would you like a crazy story? About an hour ago in Minesterio I was having a little bit of trouble with google translate in the the company of a man and his girlfriend, and three...
Thank you MSPath! Picked up a stamp at a restaurant. I think I’m getting the hang of it now. Time for a walk now. Chilly but lovely sunshine.
Buen Camino
Hi. I’m Nigel. 67 year old, currently living out of a converted pickup truck trying to walk as much of the Camino from Seville as possible, but with a walking disability that restricts how much I can do per day.
It’s pretty lonely. Seen no one so far and Albergues have been closed. Day 3 on...
