Elena, Canada
“We have a choice every day – often on the Camino my feet hurt and my body was tired … each day I told myself to ‘choose’ to focus on the beautiful scenery around me, the amazing sunsets, the incredible people I met … and the little surprise joys that each day brought.”
Jessica, Canada
“I came to understand that you can’t spend your life planning ahead, because you will miss the true beauty that each day has to offer.”
Dorothy / “Little Chicago,” USA
“They called me ‘Little Chicago’ (that’s where I’m from), and decided to ‘take me under their wing.’”
Eva, Canada
“I think it’s in the nothingness that I found everything. I needed the shooting pain in my feet to remind me that I was alive.”
Greg, USA
“I wanted to prove to myself that I could reach Santiago, even if I had to crawl there!”
David, USA (2014)
“Every day was fundamentally the same, but also truly unique. That is what I loved the most.”
Elliott, Wales
“So I quit my job, sold everything but the most dear possessions, left my flat, ended my relationship and stepped onto the Way.”
Nilanj / “Señor Vino,” USA (2014)
“These things, these daily adventures, these constant little joys, helped me realize again that ‘life’ is much more than our work lives.”
