Whether you're drawn to the vineyards of France, the valleys of Patagonia, or the geysers of the American West, my goal is to provide thoughtful, elevated travel experiences.

May 29, 2024 🇪🇸 Los Arcos -> Logroño

Today finally started to feel normal. It was long, hot, and sunny, but I started to feel strong rather than worn down and weak everyday. My body is adjusting to the daily miles, and I’m starting to find a routine and rhythm on the Camino.

The heat was no joke. After 8+ hours of walking in the same direction, I learned that the sun somehow finds the most random places to target. Today’s was the back of my leg, which led to a ghetto engineered makeshift sunshade. Sometimes the Camino teaches profound lessons, and sometimes it teaches sun protection.

May 28, 2024 🇪🇸 Villatuerta → Los Arcos
27.7km

Day 6 started to test my reasons why I even decided to do this trip. It’s both physically and mentally challenging each day to power through the sun, heat, and elevation.

Somewhere between Villatuerta and Los Arcos, we made it to the famous wine fountain, saw cats sleeping in windowsills, and somehow ended up letting the drunk guy lead the group… which is exactly how we got lost….. I was that drunk guy :)

But getting lost led us to one of the best meals of the trip, passing an old metalsmith along the way, and eventually arriving in one of the most beautiful cities we’d seen so far.

Sometimes the wrong turn becomes the best part of the story.

May 27, 2024 🇪🇸 Uterga -> Villatuerta

Day 5 was a lot of cloudy walking and Spanish paella. Believe me, I am NOT complaining about the clouds today, very thankful for the shade as the days grow warmer.

May 26, 2024 🇪🇸 Pamplona —-> Uterga

Today felt simpler. Leaving Pamplona behind, the walk slowly opened into farmland and rolling hills, poppy fields, and for the first time in a couple days I wasn’t completely stuck in my own head. The climb up to Alto del Perdón was windy and tiring, but reaching the metal pilgrim statues beside the huge windmills made it feel worth it. It’s one of those Camino views you see in pictures, but standing there in the cold wind after climbing all morning felt different in person.

Yesterday was the day I wanted to quit. Today just felt like the day things started looking brighter. Nothing huge changed, my feet still hurt and there were still plenty of uphill stretches. The villages after the descent felt quiet and calm, and by the time I reached Uterga I felt tired in a good way instead of a defeated way.

May 25, 2024 🇪🇸 Larrasoaña -> Pamplona
19.8 km

This was the day I remember calling mom and crying about how physically challenging this was. Your feet hurt, your legs are sore, you didn’t give yourself enough breaks the first 2 days to recover properly. You feel weak and defeated. Of course I never had the intention of quitting but the harsh reality of what I had signed myself up for really started to sink in.

Everyone always tells you how amazing this experience is and how it’s one of the best things you’ll ever do, but no one tells you how much this truly weighs on your body.

Regardless, after flushing out my frustrations, we reached Pamplona! The home of the Running of the Bulls.

We were sitting outside grabbing tapas for dinner when a few girls next to us started chatting. They wanted to show us some of the sights around town! We tried local delicacies like pigs ear (good flavor awful texture), bought matching brackets (which surprisingly I STILL HAVE ON TODAY), and enjoyed the Saturday night ahead of us.
