Earlier this fall I walked 260 kilometers from Porto, Portugal to Santiago de Compostela, Spain on the Coastal Portuguese Camino route. Below I tried to capture what was a pretty epic experience. I was at a crossroads. Not the metaphorical one I’d been perpetuating since turning 40 six months earlier. Literally, I had to choose between going right or left for the last stretch of my Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. I’d walked over 250 kilometers and this was the final push.
So great to read your story Laurel, and to meet you en route. I hope we meet again one day :)
This is beautiful, Laurel! I’m so glad you made this dream happen and that it proved so meaningful. ❤️
