Two years ago I started a hike which had a positive impact on me. It’s a famous ancient pilgrimage path called Camino de Santiago. I got a lot of questions regarding this walk of almost 800 kilometers or 500 miles. Here are some of them…. How long did you walk? I started to walk from …
Our European Premiere provided us with the perfect excuse to find ourselves back on the Camino during the week prior to the big event. The Camino worked its magic from the very beginning as a group of seven special women decided to make the journey to Spain to walk the Camino Finisterre – Muxia … …
