Trip Day 41
Camino Frances Day 38
Stayed at Albergue y Pensión San Marcos, Palas de Rei, Spain

I’ve walked over 500 miles/800 kilometers (over 1.1 million steps) of Camino Frances from France to Spain. Camino de Santiago Frances is an ancient pilgrim path across the north of the Iberian Peninsula.
✈️ I began my journey on Tuesday, October 10, 2023 from home in Washington State, USA.
🚶‍♀️ Started walking on Friday, October 13, 2023 from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, France.
🎒 I arrived in Santiago de Compostela, Spain on Wednesday, November 22, 2023. Took me 41 days. 💕
🌊 I traveled to Muxia, Fisterra, & Cee to see the Atlantic Ocean.
✈️ I arrived back home on Wednesday, November 29, 2023! Total of 51 days.
🏋️‍♀️ I lost over 13 lbs. 👏 Gained a lot of strength & muscle. 💪🦵
This was my longest solo journey to date. Can hardly wait to walk other Camino routes and volunteer my time as a Hospitalora to help my fellow pilgrims along the Camino.
Thank you to my wonderful husband for telling me to go live my dreams of walking the Camino. ❤️
I miss all my Camino friends so much. ❤️
