This should be my last Camino on the Francés Route. After two previous attempts, 2018 will be on my terms and if it falls short, there’s no one else involved. 2014 was a memorable Camino with some of my family and if I can relive that experience and complete the whole walk, I’ll pack the Camino Francés away with fond memories.
