It has been a very special part of my Camino experience living in Galicia to hear the pilgrims share their stories and the WHY THEY CAMINO? Muchisimas Gracias IMAXINA AUDIOVISUAL for volunteering your creative talents and time to help us begin to share this story. We are excited to take pictures and more video this year capturing the SMILES, STORIES and CAMINO ADVENTURES of The Global Pilgrims!!! Bo Camiño!
“To walk is an art,” he said, “To walk is the art of looking at the horizon, thinking about where I want to go but also enduring the fatigue. And many times, the walk is difficult, it is not easy… There is darkness… even days of failure… one falls… But always think this: do not be afraid of failure.
“Do not be afraid of falling. In the art of walking, what is important is not avoiding the fall but not remaining fallen. Get up quickly, continue on, and go,” he said to applause. “But it is also terrible to walk alone, terrible and boring. Walking in community with friends, with those who love us, this helps us … get to the end.” – Vatican Radio

GALICIA – is an incredible and beautiful land waiting for you to discover!!! Enjoy!!!
“The Royal Hospital of Santiago had its origins in the religious fervor of the Catholic Monarchs, who built it to give aid and shelter to pilgrims following the long route of stars to the tomb of the Apostle. If you follow the path of legends in this Parador Museum, you will discover the message of salvation displayed on its carved stones and its evolution as a hostel and hospital, at one time even housing orphaned children.”

One of the feelings that I love about the Camino is remembering my childhood camping adventures with family and friends. The Camino brings you back to nature and remembering many of the beautiful smells, feelings and sights that only nature can inspire. Combining this with a little new creativity and modern conveniences – what a fantastic way to relax and enjoy a warm fire and some good conversation while you listen to the music that nature provides.
Love this idea and would be fun to see it on the Camino somewhere – who knows maybe I can get my friend German Limeres to put one at his historic house on the camino. I can already smell the fire and feel my feet brushing softly the ground as we all sway slowly in the swings.
