Getting ready
I laid everything out before leaving and kept the bag as light as I could.
A short record of my two Camino walks in 2024: a few photos, a few documents, and the moments that have stayed with me.
The Camino de Santiago is a network of pilgrimage routes that all lead to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.[1]
My first Camino. I walked from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela, 2–6 June 2024.
I laid everything out before leaving and kept the bag as light as I could.
The first people I met on the way. The trip stopped feeling solitary very quickly.
I still remember a shopkeeper who looked just like Linus.
This was the view one day before the walk began.
My second walk ran from Santiago to Muxía and then to Fisterra, 1–6 September 2024. I kept the documents from that route.
I received this at the end of the walk to Muxía.
The certificate, stamps, and passport from the end of the route.
