50 Days for Fifty Years

Blaise sets off to celebrate her 50th birthday, to give gratitude for her life. A walk of 50 days for 50 years, following the Way of St James in the north of Spain.

Walking the ancient pilgrim walk, Camino de Santiago, has a profound affect on her life. Most of what Blaise learns is gradual, just like the step-by-step journey of over 800 kilometres by foot.

With each passing day, the journey brings more knowledge and understanding into her heart, cementing much of what she already knows, and continues well after she returnshome to her life in Australia.

This daily travelogue will interest women travelling solo or anyone planning to walk the Camino and includes costing, travel advice and a list of items carried along the Way. Part memoir, part travelogue, readers will take the journey with Blaise and get a feel for the physical, mental and spiritual growth that transpired over 50 days of walking and beyond.
