Come Along With Me to Spain!

I'm calling it my Camino Mixto - as I am adding quite a bit of variety to this Epic Adventure! And you can come along with me to Spain - virtually!

Part 1 - Walk from Leon to Ponferrada (pause for Part 2)

I start the Camino Frances in León, Spain, after two flights and a train ride. From León, I walk westward to Rabanal del Camino, where I am stopping off for two and a half weeks to do duty as Hospitalera (see Part 2)!

Part 2 - Hospitalera duty at Refugio Guacelmo in Rabanal del Camino

Next I continue westward until reaching Ponferrada, where I make a left turn onto the Camino Invierno (Part 3). I follow this route to Santiago de Compostela.

Part 3 - the Camino Invierno from Ponferrada to Santiago de Compostela

After a celebration in Santiago, I head south to Lisbon, where I meet up with my other half to explore the city and take a Western Mediterranean cruise (Part 4).

Sounds like a lot, I know. But I do have about eight weeks for this adventure!

As you can imagine, I will be pretty busy for the next two months. If you would like to follow along, go to FindPenguins at https://findpenguins.com/arlenelaskey/trip/camino-mixto. You can register and get notifications when I post (probably daily) or just check in now and then.

I hope to do a few 'Live from the Camino' blog posts, but no promises. And I might post a little on Facebook. Maybe.

What about my book (Quest for the Enlightened Pilgrim), you ask? Or even if you didn't ask, lol. I have sent off my final draft to be proofread and formatted, so should be ready to launch shortly after I return home. Stay tuned!
