I churned this one out quicker than expected. The lessons and tricks using the video software for the ‘Norte’ one, had come in handy!
Stitching all the footage together was good fun, bringing back the experience of this solitary pilgrimage.
It was a unique Camino, one that tested me in many ways I didn’t expect – I’m quite proud of this adventure. I managed 7 days with little interaction, save for my pigeon Spanish and miming skills with the locals at the end of the day.
Long days, some unexpected, and I kept a level head as my travel plans to Granja de Moreruela unraveled – it felt like I was on an episode of ‘Race Around the World’!
The scenery had its own charm, I reckon some of the best over my travels on these ancient trails. There were many occasions I just had to stop, blown away by the landscape. Even when the path passed through the destruction of the August’s wildfires – it may have been somber, but there was something profound in that charred land.
If you have a spare hour, join me as I walk across the golden Castillian plains and climb the green (sometimes black) rolling hills of Galicia.
The Camino Sanabrés isn’t for the many. It’s for the few.
