The Camino de Santiago, known in English as the Way of St James, is a network of pilgrims’ ways or pilgrimages leading to the shrine of the apostle Saint James the Great in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain, where tradition holds that the remains of the apostle are buried. I saw a BBC documentary about this many years ago. I prepared and hoped to do it one day. An opportunity presented itself, and with ten days’ notice and the support of my family, I made reservations and walked from Tui to Santiago de Compostela. Approximately 75 miles. This is not necessarily an entertainment video but a video diary of my trip and experiences.
