I would like to introduce you to my good friend of 15 years, Karen, who will be walking the Via de la Plata with me. When asked her reasons for making this journey, she states, “Like a compass with it 4 main directions, I too have four main intentions for walking the Camino. First, I want to challenge myself on many levels. Second, I wish to slow down, simplify and see the day without the modern contraptions of my life. Next, I am ready to Walk the Talk of the million words that I have read, for over 45 years, about spirituality. Lastly, it is my intent to do something really different, and be open to it all! Surrounding these main points is experiencing the priceless friendship of one dear friend and opening the door to new ones. I know as we walk, and I write and draw, there will be surprises for me. Like an unopened package, I do not know how to name them right now.”
