À propos de cet audio
In the winter of 2018 I returned to Spain to finish the 500 mile, million step, pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. This is the story of my winter journey. Walking the Camino in winter has unique challenges as well as benefits.
The lessons learned in this book may be useful to anyone considering a pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago, or any long-distance walk.

Worth every penny, and I don't mean this facetiously. Just accurately. Basically it's a deadpan reading of the author's Facebook posts , an interview plus a packing list. Concise, practical, secular. I have no idea if the walker is Catholic or even Christian. Pilgrimage strictly speaking is not what this winter hiker's guide is about.
I learned some useful tips. Examples...
- Hiking in winter verus autumn is a tradeoff.
- Japanese toed socks prevent blisters
- many foreigners do this hike
- Destination church gives you one of two versions of a certificate if you get stamped along the way
- walking backwards downhill can be useful
- no need to carry much water as not long distances between settlements
- Hostels along the way
I liked the author's plain narration and diary writing. No pretences. Don't expect but a few tidbits of history. This is not Saint John of the Cross either.
I must read a different guide to find out the story of St. James and what the trip budget range is. I am perplexed why the author ate in restaurants rather than self-catering with cheese, fruit and nuts. Perhaps for the warmth and to socialize? He hints that eating out in Spain is affordable, but being the EU I will just presume he was on a higher budget than I will be in Sri Lanka.
It is what it is described to be.
