Tomorrow I leave for northern Spain to start a two week pilgrimage. I will start in O Cebreiro and walk for seven days (about 100 miles) to Santiago de Compostela. There are many Caminos (“Ways”) in northern Spain and throughout Europe and I have chosen to do part of the Camino Frances.

Once in Santiago, my friend Natalie (who I met through couch surfing in Nepal!) will join me and we will hike to Finisterre– once known as the “end of the world” — on the Atlantic Coast. I´m very much looking forward to walking, meeting people from all over the world, and discovering little villages in northern Spain.

Hopefully I´ll meet some yogis along the way who want to release tense, sore muscles after long days of walking!
