I’m sure you’ve heard all about the legendary Camino de Santiago spirit! Ask any pilgrim to tell you all about their Camino de Santiago and you will see their eyes light up as they share their tales of adventure.👣💚👣

What is the Camino spirit in reality? Well, the life of a pilgrim is a mundane one. Eat, sleep, walk, and repeat is the daily life of a pilgrim while talking to your fellow pilgrims, of course.👣💚👣

Most pilgrims will say that walking the Camino takes them far out of their comfort zone, especially if they choose to stay in shared rooms in an albergue.👣💚👣

The peace and tranquillity of walking in nature is the perfect opportunity to reflect on life. I like to say that the Camino demands that you give your troubles over to the path, as the walk has a way of pushing up all the problems of yesterday until you are left with a hollow feeling inside. An emptiness which creates space for the Camino spirit to rise within.

The Camino spirit is joy, pure and simple. Joy gives a person the ability to see the world through a different lens and experience the magical in the mundane in everyday living.

The mundane life of a pilgrim creates space for the magic to happen. You experience pleasure in the very simple things in life. You find the magical in the mundane in the deep, blue skies, the stunning countryside, the simple cuisine, and companionship along the way.

This Camino spirit is mirrored in the pilgrims around you, creating an environment of peace, acceptance, and kindness towards one another, as you walk yourself and each other to Santiago.

The Camino spirit is priceless for this reason. Once you connect with your inner joy and experience the magic in the mundane, the Camino experience shows you a different way of being. The real test is to live the Camino spirit in everyday life.

The Camino spirit really is that crazy little thing called joy.

The Camino de Santiago, also known as the Way of St. James, is a popular pilgrimage route that spans across Europe and leads to the shrine of the apostle St. James the Great in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. The pilgrimage has been a significant spiritual journey for centuries and attracts people from various backgrounds, including religious pilgrims, hikers, and tourists.
The main route of the Camino de Santiago, known as the Camino Francés, begins in St. Jean Pied de Port, a small town in France, and covers approximately 800 kilometres across northern Spain. However, several other routes, such as the Camino del Norte, the Camino Portugués, and the Camino Primitivo, vary in distance, starting point, and scenery.
The Camino de Santiago offers you a chance to connect with nature, reflect on life, and experience diverse cultures.

Along the way, pilgrims pass through quaint villages, beautiful countryside, historical monuments, and medieval towns.

Completing the Camino de Santiago is a personal journey, and many walk it for reasons such as spiritual growth, self-discovery, physical challenge, or simply to experience the history and culture associated with it.
It is certainly not limited to any specific religion or belief system, welcoming people of all backgrounds and faiths.

Upon reaching Santiago de Compostela, pilgrims traditionally visit the stunning Cathedral of Santiago, which is believed to house the relics of St. James and receive a Compostela certificate to mark their achievement.

The Camino de Santiago is an enriching and transformative experience for many pilgrims.

Bookings for 2024 are open, and you are welcome to message me and discuss what Camino is most suitable for you.

There are days when simply seeing feels like happiness itself … you feel so rich, the elation seems almost excessive, and you want to share it --- Robert Doisneau

Casamindela, is a charming and quaint 19th century family run estate located along the Camino Portuguese central route, a piece of heaven that we all search for on our pilgrimage. Built on 50 acres of agricultural land in 1864, it’s the perfect place to rest, recover and recollect.

“Good morning” hills took us out of Fisterra up into tree plantations, down to secluded beaches and up again along peaceful pathways.

The option is to walk to Fisterra first and then Muxia or vice versa. Never seen so many happy pilgrims with cheerful “Buen Camino”s, all of us savouring the last day. Perhaps if we walk slowly it will last forever….

Re-fueled at the best coffee shop in Lires before tackling our last lot of hills.
Coming into Muxia hugging the coast line and thinking of the journey.

We started at Porto on the coast and ended in Muxia on the coast.

Leaving at a glorious sunrise following the stone and water route before a delicious breakfast. Meandering along the river and vineyards led us to a sea side harbour town with sandy beaches and plenty bars. 26km of walking.

A short but glorious hilly route to Armenteira saw us trekking up mountains through forests and down ancient walkways arriving at the mythical monastery for the night. Actual sounds from the forest

The earliest record of this monastery dates from 942 and its foundation is attributed to Saint Fructuosus of the Benedictine Order. Emperor Charles V granted it the privilege of housing a School of Theology between 1556 to 1648.

After an enormous croissant breakfast we climbed out of Redondela into the peaceful forest, the sound of bagpipes calling us towards Pontevedra. Joining the spiritual route we arrived at the Monasterio de Poio tired and elated after a 30km day.

After some serious climbing we finally reached the top of the hill and enjoyed a nice casual walk into Redondela. Lots of pilgrims on the road, many left without accommodation. Make sure you book ahead. Read this in my John Brierley camino guide. I hope you enjoy the read. https://www.amazon.com/Inner-Camino-Path-Awakening/dp/1844094650 The Inner Camino …. Many traditions celebrate the day we were borne, others mourn the day we separate from our Divine Origin and chose to take a detour into fear. Many religions disguise this decision by proclaiming we were banished from heaven; others claim we became so enamoured with our delusional drama that we forgot our heavenly Source. We need to remember why we came here before we can choose to go Home. Life is a classroom and we need to learn the lesson, live the Answer and leave. The Garuda is a mythical bird; born fully grown symbolising the perfection of our essential nature, it is ready to fly Home as soon as our shell cracks open. The mythical Bali Ha’i (your own special island) lies over the horizon but is not found by death, but by choice. Reference to John Brieley book - Camino guides

Leaving the Hospederia we walked through a quaint village leading us onto a woodland path until the big city. Once in the city, we decide to stick closer to the coastline; best decision as we saw a many large cruise ships in the harbour visiting for the day, fancy wancy rich folk cruisers and many boats. Vigo is a big, vibrant and a beautiful city that comes alive after 8 pm, it has some incredibly interesting statues and some very good looking buildings.

An absolute stunning walk today. Started off with a boat taxi that took us from Caminha to A Guarda - Spain. We then walked the entire day hugging the breathtaking coastline of Spain. What an amazing day! 🌸. Today’s walk was 23km.

Started the day in Fão meandering through villages, conquering forests and finally crossing the bridge into Viana do Castelo. Finishing a rewarding 30km with sundowners at Monte da Santa Luzia. Cheers!

An early start from Vila do Conde to Fão. It rained most of the way, but it wasn’t cold. An enjoyable walk in the rain. Today’s walk was 26km.

The journey begins

I have been asked on many occasions by my clients if there is a chance that they may be able to attend a Botafumeiro Ceremony. Nowadays, the Cathedral authorities fund the use of the Botafumeiro on the Roman Catholic Holy Days and feast days. At ALL OTHER TIMES, the use of the Botafumeiro is by paid subscription. Sadly, a limited number of men are available to participate in the Botafumeiro ceremony. Once upon a time, the Cathedral reached over to the adjacent Seminario San Martin Pinario to obtain the needed manpower from the seminarians or other religious persons living there. But times have changed. These secular men must be scheduled in advance and compensated for their efforts. Eight trained men are required for each incidence of the Botafumeiro ceremony. The Botafumeiro ceremony has been part of the Mass at the Cathedral for about 1,000 years. In fact, the Cathedral authorities have adapted as best they can to the social and economic realities to keep this historical ceremony alive. Essentially, when a group or individual wants to ensure that the Botafumeiro is used at a Mass that their group plans to attend, they contact the Pilgrim Office well in advance to make the arrangements. I believe that if a group requests and pays for this ceremony, they also receive reserved seating in one of the side apses adjacent to the altar to get a good view of the ceremony. As July and August are months with many pilgrim groups doing the Camino, the schedule is relatively packed with paid requests to use the Botafumeiro at many more Masses than usual. I have been fortunate to see this on several occasions. In my opinion, everyone visiting Santiago de Compostela should experience the Botafumeiro at least once.

I first walked the Camino in 2015 with 4 of my friends. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to start my own business and share my passion with as many people as I can reach.

Since then I have walked as a guide with small groups and with individual persons. I have organised and planned many Caminos for eager peregrines; I have enjoyed each and every individual requirement of the planning.

I work closely with other tour operators and hotel groups involved in the Camino de Santiago sharing new ideas and information.
