What Will My Camino Hold?
by Abby
(Bodega, CA)
Thank you so much for this. I have been pining to do the Camino do at least 5 years, and am finally going in late April. It is oddly difficult to understand, or explain why it is so important for me to go. I also wonder why it is so important for me to be selfish and go alone. I don't want to have to worry about anyone else. I feel slightly guilty about leaving many people who will miss me. I question whether it is just a 'bucket list ' item or trying to escape my life. Yet, I am so hoping for all those things you mention. Your words help me justify this journey at least to myself.

Carbon fiber construction (not aluminum) in a trekking pole makes them ultra lightweight. We like the Z-Pole style from Black Diamond so we can hide our poles in our pack from potential thieves before getting to our albergue! There are many to choose from! (See more of our gear recommendations! )
