Hello pilgrims (new and old alike).

In both 2022 and 2023 I walked the Portugues Coastal with a few friends and decided to video the experience for the first time (I also walked in 2018 and 2019).

In 2022, I TRIED to encapsulate the feeling of the Camino and what we saw. It did well (13,000 views, not bad for someone who never makes videos). But people asked me to do something a bit "more" the next time.

So in 2023 we returned and I tried again to make an interesting video. To my shock, this time we received over 135,000 views (insane). And despite the ending being weak (I neglected to film much at the cathedral), it's been pretty well received and I like it.

But I want more feedback, so when I head back in 2025, I can provide people with an even more meaningful video. Note: this year I opted for The John Muir Way in Scotland which was fanTASTtic.

Sidenote: last year I was on a podcast talking about how the Camino helped me overcome an injury and change my life. I LOVED doing the podcast. Hope people enjoy it as well: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/episode-10-the-camino-cures-with-brian-weston--53466813

Let me know your thoughts. I am typically not a public person with this kind of stuff but I had too much fun not to share! Buen Camino

Open to feedback but I do hope people like the videos!

3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Back is blank for engraving.
I liked them. I also like videos with narration an d better yet audio of what people are saying.
Your video shots and editing was very nice. One last thing, most of the women I know prefer not to have their backsides featured. Put the camara in front, looking at you.
 
Beautiful videos Brian - you’ve captured the essence of the Camino for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Buen Camino for your 2025 camino -
Cheers from Oz -

Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!

Agreed. It was cleared with them as to how I was filming :)
