My #1 tip for first time pilgrims is to slow down and embrace what the experience has to give.

Everyday you will walk around people from all over the world. Taking the chance to meet these

people is something I highly recommend. From a packing perspective, my main tip is to use poles.

Using poles correctly can take off a percentage of your weight onto the poles with every step
you take. That weight that the poles take from you adds up in the long run.

People often ask what the hardest part of the Camino is. Honestly, every year the hardest part of the trip is saying goodbye and stepping back into normal life. The Camino has a way of extracting you from your normal life and puts you into this alternate life for the time you spend on it. It is different from most vacations too, in the sense that the Camino creates a new way of life for you. Some of the pilgrims I went with last summer referred to it as “The Post-Camino Letdown.” There’s something intangible about the Camino that is just so magnificent and captivating that cannot be replaced. I always try to remind myself to be grateful that it happened, and to look forward to the next opportunity to go back.

Heather Strode was a mother, wife, daughter, sister, professor at WKU, house mom to KD’s, best friend to many, and a pilgrim. She was in her element while walking the Camino de Santiago in the summer of 2024 with her son Tucker and they already had plans to return in 2025 to continue their pilgrimage.

Unfortunately, Heather passed away in her sleep on December 31, 2024. To honor her memory and the profound impact her beautiful life made on so many a memorial scholarship in her honor has been formed. The application will be a 2-3 minute video answering the question: Why do I want to walk the Camino de Santiago? Deadline for applications is February 28th. The applicants will be reviewed and a winner will be selected by Heather’s husband, Ted, and her 2 sons, Tucker and Tyler.

For more information please contact John Klein directly at 270-846-5012
