"Do you like going for long walks?" Being asked this question by a fellow pilgrim, or peregrino, a few days into my month-long journey walking 500 miles across northern Spain seems ridiculous. And then, I realize it's a brilliant question. It seeks to answer why someone would embark on such a challenge. Honestly, I don't like walking. So why would I - or anyone - take a month off from work and life, leaving their family behind, to walk the Camino de Santiago? The physical, mental, and spiritual journey that is the Camino is profoundly personal yet universally transformational.

Audible version prompted me to buy the paperback
Revisado: 12-19-21
I had an Audible credit I needed to spend and I was looking for a book about the Camino when I saw a review by Sharon Franta. I crossed paths multiple times with Sharon and her son during my Camino in 2017. Her review prompted me to get the Audible version of this book. The journey the author made was vastly different from mine and yet, eerily similar. He was on a fixed schedule and paid a price in blisters and pain. I had the luxury of time and was blister-free. Mr. Rada taught me that the spirit of the Camino will touch you no matter how hard you try to outrun it. When we left a town in the morning, neither of us knew where we would sleep at the end of the day. Some of the things I heard him read to me in his book were things I had written in my Camino journal 4 years earlier. If you are thinking about making this Pilgrimage, I highly recommend this book. He has some good advice that he, admittedly, did not follow. Make the Camino your own. If you have your Compostela, this book will bring back lots of memories. Also, I like his quotes at the end of each chapter. Buen Camino!
