I really enjoyed your post from the Camino. My community blog has a section called "Medicine for the Midlife" and it's the journal entries from an American who just picked up one day and did the Camino. It's interesting. My blog is always looking for travel reviews, photos, commentaries, etc, to share. If you have the time, check it out at dirty-hippies.blogspot.com, or email me at dirtyhippiesblog@gmail.com. Continued fun on your travels! Heather :)
