Walking the Camino de Santiago is a quest for answers found only within yourself
Stopping at O Cebreiro along the Camino.
In the foothills of O Cebreiro, close to the provincial border between Castilla y Leon and Galicia in northern Spain, the walk was long and steep.
We proceeded steadily for hours uphill through the greenery, and it was in the walking that I felt I was, at last, coming home after a long trip. The Camino de Santiago can be hard and it can be smooth. Today it was hard.
