Walking in the footsteps of pilgrims and... theropods?

🦖🦕🦖

This is one of those special sites that 90% of pilgrims miss.

On the Camino Frances, don't miss these unbelievably well-preserved dinosaur footprints as you enter the town of Logroño.

145 million years ago a carnivorous theropod left its tracks in stone, and now they're enjoyed every year by thousands of pilgrims walking that same path!

I'm NOT going to tell you that rainy days on the Camino de Santiago are fun.

They're really not.

You can spend a small fortune on rain gear, and in a torrential downpour, you're still going to be wet.

But let me explain why this is a CRUCIAL part of the Camino experience...

Many of us have designed our lives to avoid discomfort at all costs. With enough money and planning, we're able to stay safe, warm, cozy, and comfortable...ALWAYS.

While this is certainly a lifestyle we WANT, I don't think it's one we NEED.

We need struggle.

We need adversity.

We need challenge.

We need frustration.

We need annoyance.

These moments forge deep character in us.

These moments teach us that we are tough, resilient, and strong.

These moments can generate gratitude as they gently remind us of life's many blessings.

These moments remind us that we are not, in fact, mini-gods with the power to vanquish every ugly thing life brings our way.

And they teach us to relinquish control and surrender to the moment.
..

Who taught us to avoid the rain by any means possible?

I don't know.

But if we learned it,

then we can unlearn it too.

I've heard it said that walking the Camino de Santiago is the cheapest way to see Europe.

With so many affordable albergues (6-15€ per night), that may be true.

Though you can book nicer accommodations along the Way, the Camino de Santiago will never be a "luxury" experience. In fact many days, feel like the exact opposite.

Those of us who've walked it have had bad days,

rainy days,

painful days,

hot days,

cold days,

long days,

frustrating days,

and everything in between.

Many days, we've felt "poor" in body but rich in spirit...

Rich in memories.

Rich in experiences.

Rich with time in nature.

Rich with the peace of solitude & contemplation.

Rich with friends, old and new.

Rich with laughter.

Rich with love.

"I wanna be rich when I grow up."

You already are.

Walk your peace, pilgrims.

There's nothing like the feeling of arriving in this sacred spot.

Nestled in the heart of Galicia, the awe-inspiring cathedral at Santiago de Compostela has stood as an icon of faith & history since its construction began in the early 11th century.

Built over the tomb of Saint James, it's drawn millions of pilgrims through the ages.

The plaza in front of the cathedral has witnessed countless reunions, tears of joy, and moments of awe as pilgrims from all corners of the world step into a story centuries in the making.

Who will be arriving here in 2026? or 2027?

And if you've arrived here before, what was your experience like?

It's a special kind of sadness 😂

Albergues on the Camino de Santiago can be VERY different. You must recalibrate your expectations for each one...

➡ They always take cash, but not all of them accept credit cards.

➡ Whether you get meals depends on the albergue.

➡ Not every hostel has hot water (though most do).

➡ While some offer blankets & towels, many only provide a mattress cover or sheet and a pillow with a case—ranging from disposable materials to occasionally plush cotton.

AND REMEMBER...

There are always more upscale, private accommodations along the way if you need a night of sound sleep and pampering. 😴

A great reminder that the Camino is not a race...

And it's not a competition.

There are no deadlines...

And there are no timekeepers.

The Camino de Santiago is a contemplative journey where strangers become friends...

All sharing the path, each at their own pace.

Walk your pace, pilgrim.

Have you seen our Radiance of the Apostle fine art print?

More than 1,000 years ago, a mysterious French scholar composed the Codex Calixtinus, the first ever guidebook for pilgrims walking the Way of St. James. This print features an exact replica of St. James as depicted in the original Codex Calixtinus manuscript.

Arrayed in fine robes and set on a background of shimmering gold, the hallowed saint oversees the declaration, “Ultreia et Suseia,” a Medieval pilgrim greeting translated as “Let’s go further. Let’s go higher.”

This is the perfect piece to hang alongside your framed pilgrim’s credential or passport.

TO SHOP the print (and see more than 20 others) just click the product tag in the image OR buy it on our website at the link in our bio.

Buen Camino!

Good luck to all you pilgrims desperately trying to learn an entire language before you leave for the Camino in a month. 😂

(and if you know of something better than Duolingo, let us know in the comments...please!)
