Janelle, your story brought me right back to my own Camino in the summer of 2019, a journey that forever changed me. The Camino has a way of breaking you down and building you back up, teaching resilience, trust, and the beauty of human connection. Your lesson of waiting two days before quitting resonated deeply, as did your moment with the nun, those small, unexpected acts of kindness are what make the Camino so sacred. Thank you for sharing your journey; it’s a beautiful reminder that the Camino never really leaves us. Buen Camino, always.
Hey Janelle...thanks for sharing your journey! I loved the honesty and resonated with a lot that you shared. I am going to take this saying and use it forward if thats ok (“Only you can make yourself better. You have to do more things outside of your comfort zone.”). Louise pulls these amazing posts together for us (as Our Everyday Journeys substack) and I have just managed to sit down and read this one...makes me want to get my backpack out of storage today! 🫶
Hi Mark, thank you! Louise does such an amazing job putting these stories together! Yes, use the phrase, apply it, let it take over and see what magic can unfold from just getting uncomfortable. Go grab that backpack! 😊
