From our home on the transformative Camino de Santiago in Spain, join me as we share stories with inspiring pilgrims, courageous adventurers and wise teachers from all over the world. Blessed to be living on this sacred path for over a decade and to have met, served and accompanied thousands of pilgrims, I’m honoured to be sharing some of these magical encounters. And, what we realise, is that these extraordinary outer caminos are really the invitation to walk our Inner Camino. These are conversations and explorations to inspire, enliven and explore camino wisdom and life wisdom.
