Last night blues

[KariannNor]

Seems like everyone is longing to go home. I don't! I want to just walk and walk and live the Camino. Anyone recognizes?

Greetings to you wonderful people from a heavy rain Santiago.

And thanks to Victoria at the Pilgrims House for listening and solving my last minute stupid problem with wrapping in a painting.

I most definitely recognise the feeling. The Blues suck....

I can so relate to that feeling. Guess you may have to plan another one . I am not sure there is a cure for that feeling of loss, except to stay fit and keep on walking back home and spend time outdoors.

Hi !
Yep every time i think the same at the end!
I think it's the new day everyday; you set of into the morning and wondering what it will bring!
Where i live i have walked the same routes here for 24 years same scenery, same people .

I know that feeling well, and the only thing that made it better was being able to turn right around and walk back the way I'd come.

I am sure finishing your camino in a heavy rain in Santiago adds to the "blues" that Peter mentioned.

Yes, this is so true for me, too. So predictable, and I'll say a bit boring.

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 to be home. I had tired of albergue life. That was five months ago and I am now feeling the pull back!

But after some time, it is soothed by planning the next one!

Yes, as a fellow Norwegian, it is always bittersweet to see the Cathedral in Santiago, knowing the walk is over.

That was five months ago and I am now feeling the pull back!

And we shared a pleasant evening/night's dinner, stay in Casa Bastan, Uterga back then. And some walking. And the pull is back here too: Hope to see you again in April/May 2025!
