My Sentiments
Usually, in the middle of the walking day, I forget that I´m in Spain. Looking around, I see the cars, signs, architecture and people, and comprehend that they´re strange and different. And yet, I don´t get the sense that I´m travelling -- I feel more like I´m at home.
DirtyPilgrims.com is not what it sounds like. Joke's on you, perv.
But seriously, folks: Becky and Jess are two Canadian girls embarking on a six-week-long walk across Spain. For us, the 800-900km route begins in a small, French town called St. Jean Pied du Port and ends in Santiago (but extends to the coastal town of Finesterre if we have the energy).
El Camino de Santiago has religious origins and translates into English as "the Way of St. James". Nowadays, the Christian Pilgrimage route is followed by thousands of people each year for many different reasons. Read our blog to find out why we've chosen to take on this crazy endeavor.
