An Australian diplomat in his sixties embarks on the ancient pilgrimage route across northern Spain, seeking meaning and connection in an increasingly fractured world. What begins as a personal challenge transforms into a profound meditation on faith, history, and the simple act of placing one foot in front of the other.
Drawing on encounters with fellow pilgrims from across the globe, this thoughtful account explores what drives modern walkers to follow in the footsteps of medieval travellers. It's a refreshingly honest portrayal of the physical demands and spiritual rewards of long-distance walking, capturing both the camaraderie of the trail and the solitary moments of reflection that make the Camino such an enduring draw for seekers and wanderers alike.
