Warning: One Camino is Rarely Enough (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Huffing up into the Pyrenees on the first day of my first Camino a compact woman who looked to be in her late sixties caught up to me. “Bonjour,” she said. “Bonjour. Ça va?” I asked. After exchanging details about where we were from she asked me if this was my first Camino. “Yes,” I said, thinking, Why on earth would someone do this more than once? She told me it was her seventh. I thought I misunderstood her French. “Septième?” I asked. Yes. Seventh time. Half-way through that first Camino, I t

Camino Conversations: Walking Solo on The Camino del Norte with Rebecca Lindell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rebecca Lindell’s Camino was more than a 500-mile walk. Like so many of us who embark on a Camino — especially a 30+ day route — the Camino changes us.
