About this listen

What does an overweight, 69 year old man do, when confronted with a challenge to his comfortable, retired, gentle ‘sailing into the setting-sun’ lifestyle?

He picks up his bag and goes for a walk. A 800 kilometre walk across the north of Spain, from St. Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. The Camino Frances.

This isn’t a travelogue or a guide. It’s the story of a long forgotten youthful dream that refused to die. There’s no seeking of answers, no seeking of self or God. Just a desire to get off the sofa and kick the aches of impending old age into the long grass. If anything else happened, it’s a bonus. Marvellous!

A lot did happen. The physical challenges. The emotional challenges. Unexpected connections with the past. The reaffirmation of the warmth of friendship and kindness. The characters along the way, both pilgrim and local. All woven together into a colourful, unforgettable journey.
