• Provides a first person account of a solo female who walked the Camino Frances from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain...around 800km or 500 miles!
• Contains over 70 full colour photos, all taken by the author
• Includes reflection and writing prompts (for before, during, and after your solo adventure!)
• Challenges the idea that women must always prioritize others and that solo travel is selfish.
• Reveals, and doesn't sugarcoat, the very real challenges of this kind of long walk through a foreign country: injuries, blisters, bedbugs, loneliness, decision fatigue, etc.
• Reminds you that there is no one right way to do the Camino: your journey will be uniquely yours
• Inspires you to set your own intentions, be present, listen to your body, practise patience, and celebrate yourself!

About the Camino:

The Camino de Santiago, also known as the Way of St. James (or simply The Way), is a network of ancient pilgrimage routes that lead to the shrine of Saint James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain. There are dozens of pilgrimage routes, with the most popular being the Camino Francés, or French route. Today, each year, tens of thousands of people from around the world walk a Camino route for religious, spiritual, personal, or recreational reasons.
