Beskrivelse
PrefaceThe Way of Saint James, also called the 'Camino de Santiago' or the 'Camino', is a crazy but rewarding adventure. For readers who are considering it, this book will be a help to make an informed decision and then plan it well.To do the Camino is to walk, nothing more. Walking is not running or climbing, but neither is it strolling at the mall.This guide is based on my experience of having completed the Camino from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela walking about 500 miles in 35 days, and having finished better than I was at the beginning.Buen Camino Index1.

12. Personal notes If you are an urbanite who has spent his life locked in four walls, it is logical that now you want to go out into the country. If you work all your life sitting, it is very logical that you want to walk. If you stay in insane and sad offices, you want to breathe clean air. If your days are filled meeting with colleagues and clients, now you want to enjoy solitude. If you must achieve absurd objectives, you want to do something where the end is not a goal.Now you can say goodbye to all that, and alone or accompanied, go to the Camino de Santiago.Buen Camino About the authorJuan Mart n-Garc a is Spanish, 60 years old, author of a recognized book over the history of Spain. He has done the Camino only once, he is not a walking expert, nor an athlete. His motivation for doing the Camino was to understand why hundreds of thousands of people not only start, but complete every year a 500-mile journey. An essential book for pilgrims
