The Complete Camino

It’s now been over a month since I finished the Camino and returned back home to the US. What a whirlwind it has been. I spent a month with the same people, waking up, walking, eating, sleeping, doing everything together. Then, suddenly, we were all splitting up and heading off to different corners of the globe. That was definitely a strange experience.

Now that I’ve had some time to begin to normalize back into American life, I’ve decided to take all of my posts from my Camino down from the main page and organize them into one post. I still have all the posts available, but you just have to click the links here or the find the link on the category menu.

Some people told me I inspired them on by walking 500 miles across Spain, others hope to do something similar one day. I hope you enjoy reading about some of my adventures along the Camino. If you have any questions, I am more than willing to answer them.

Enjoy … and Buen Camino!

It’s also a pretty funny looking mountain – it’s nothing like the rolling hills of the Appalachian Mountains or the pointy peaks of the Rockies.
