More 2024 Camino Guides available
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

It continues to amaze me that no matter how different we may be individually; nationality, age, gender, reasons for walking, path chosen etc, our experiences impact us similarly & lead us to do things that we may not normally consider. I've never been a fan of tattoos, esp as they seem to be addictive... , but I'm already envisioning mine. Starting next month, I'm walking the full Via Francigena from London to Rome. When I return home, on my upper arm, I want a tattoo of a shield divided into four with; a scallop shell (multiple Caminos), St Olav's Way cross (Norway), the Sanskrit mark for "yu"..to join, connect, bond, unite (Way of 88 Temples, Japan) & the 2 keys of St Peter (VF). Still deciding on wording; would like 'Not all who wander are lost' (I prefer it without 'those') but could be too long for the size of the tattoo. I want to represent all the paths that have meant so much to me. And for future walks?...well, thats what my other arm is for! I don't think there could be a more personal way to symbolize your journey. Now...will I chicken out...?!

Mine says “Cor unum in Deum” -one heart in God. It is written on the small wooden cross that is worn by the nuns in Carrion de los Condes and has special meaning because I was asked to sing two songs at the pilgrim mass the evening I stayed there.
Two weeks later I ran into a pilgrim who had been at that mass. He said he bought two of their crosses-one for him and the other he did not know why. But when he saw me he said he knew; it was for me.

I think that my tattoo was what kept me going some days. I was not going to get one unless I completed all 500 miles. I DID and I love my tattoo.

Let us pick up your suitcase once you arrive in Europe....
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
After my 4th Camino in 4 years, I got this tattoo in Santiago.
