    Still one of my favourite Camino videos, made all the more special as an 'online' friend appears in it shortly before he died.

    Alexandra, thank you for your wonderful video. Your interviews of the countless number of people were most insightful. It made your journey come alive. Every person has a purpose for walking; loss of loved ones, painful pasts, the challenge of the journey, looking for answers. God placed each person there for a reason. Thank you for sharing!

    I leave for Barcelona tomorrow and start the Camino on Sunday from St Jean. As I've been packing I've had CZcams on in the backgrouns and suddenly found myself multitasking with your video. What a nice way to prepare for my journey. Thanks.

    This is the first documentary I could find that does not so much focus on the person doing the camino, but on the persons joining you. The first movie that gives a real feel of what it's like to be there and be part of the camino family. Thank you very much for that, Alexandra. 27 days until I'm back for my next walk, and this vid just boosted my anticipation even higher.

    Walk the Camino - you are never alone. Great video, having walked the Camino I just become so emotional with the beautiful memories of the people and places. Once you start walking the Camino it never ends - it lasts a life time. You walk surrounded by angels. You talk from your heart with love. The first language of the Camino is silence. Thank you Alexandra... I love your happiness. Eugene

    Bravo, Alexandra, bravo! My wife Becky and I started the Camino in 2016 and finished in Santiago in 2018. Your video captures for us the best part of the Camino: interactions, conversations and friendships with people met along the way. I aspire to go back for a month each September for five years, starting next year and until I turn 80 (Becky does not plan to walk it again). Your video gave me hope that I will be able connect with people as a solo Peregrino as well as we did as a couple. Thanks!

    Someone asked me about Camino resources, and I immediately thought of your amazing documentary and how you captured the essence of the Camino. I did the Portuguese Camino 2 years ago and just watching this again has given me Camino fever. Might be just what I need to do to mark my 65th next year. Buen Camino

    Thanks for all the kind words. I wasnt planning on making this, but the people and stories were so magical and compelling.... @elle yes, walk. Do it. I almost talked myself out of it, too. In fact, most of the people I conferred with, all had cold feet but really, its the pilgrimage of a lifetime. There is a ton of support, you always go at your pace, and amazing people and camino magic along the way. Yes! Its your time to walk now.

    This is a truly special video that absolutely captures the Camino de Santiago journey for so many of us. Thank you so much for this. I completed my Camino about three months ago and I'm still coming to terms with the profound experience it gave me. It's brilliant how you managed to ask the simple questions and allow others to open up about their reasons for doing the Camino. It's a minefield of emotions out there, but that is a big part of the magic of this walk. Everyone that walks the way with you is a treasure in the moment, as you are for them. I felt we were all like stars of light, just like the stars above the route that follows the Milky Way. Each dot of starlight above seemed to be reflected in the light of people's souls below on the Earth.

  • @paulcunliffe4434
    @paulcunliffe4434 Před 5 lety

    Brilliant video so informative and inspirational. I loved that you involved and asked the question of "why do you walk the Camino" to so many fellow pilgrims it told me a lot. All replies were heartfelt and honest. I did really like the conversation with Ian Kitchen and so sad when you said he died the next day. RIP to a good man. I have turned 65 years of age this year and will attempt my first Camino in September so your video has provided me with food for thought so thank you so much. Buen Camino

    Hi Alexandra from across the Bay. I watched your short video and was so happy I had hoped to find you made a video of your entire Camino and voila, I find exactly that. This full length video was heartwarming and appreciate so much your listening to all the people you met up with. While the beauty of the place, the history and spirit was never lost, your focus on the people you gathered into a fluid tribe along the Way was inspiring on its own. I so enjoyed this video and si Dios quezer, will be on my own Camino next year.

    @rowen3648 Před 6 lety +3

    (It's on this page) Yogi productions ' The Camino de Santiago: a pilgrims journey is the second best/entertaining video of walking the Camino.This - however - is the best; it captures howm it feels to reluctantly finish a journey and reluctantly say goodbye (probably for ever) of friends made while walking the Way.It is also fun and funny.So thank you for something rather precious,Alexandra.

  • @GarGri
    @GarGri Před 5 lety +1

    An enjoyable documentary for some of the music making up the background soundtrack.Touching for one interviewee that proved to be the classic, one day you're here the next day you're not.
    Well done Alexandra Liss for using the Camino scenery as a backdrop for the conversations and reasons for doing the camino.
    Personally I did my Camino as way of seeing what the author of a book "Spanish Steps, Travels with my Donkey" was writing about.
    I have a feeling that although it is nearly four years since my first Camino, it is calling me back.........

    Good video.
    I've walked the Camino three times, and it never gets old for me. Each one was a spiritual adventure in of itself. Each one was different as were the fellow pilgrims I met along the Way.
    Anyone who watched the video that now wants to walk it, I say yes. Be daring and make that jump. When you finish you wonder why you were ever hesitant in the first place.

    You did an extraordinary video about your experience on the CdeStgo. It was deep, funny, complete, unpretentious, tender, filosophical, humble, humane, endearing, sensitive & sensible.
    In spite of not being religious, your spiritual part of you did a great job capturing the best of all the people --from all walks of life--you came across to bring out their wisdom and insightfulness.
    Admirable work.
    Congratulations,

    Hi Alessandra! I just stumbled on your video. I found your presentation very real, as the sceneries and conversations were quite typical; refreshingly profound, personal and topics that are/were mainly not materialistic (as is in our "normal" reality). I did the Camino Frances solo last year [Sept-Oct 2016] which is in one word: incomparable. I liked and loved the experience that I will do another solo, this second one via Camino del Norte come summertime. I thank you for your video which makes the experiences very alive; makes memories of this kind of unique life-journeys to always relish and forever treasure for our lifetime Take care..

    Hi Alexandra, just wanted to let you know how much I loved your video, my name is Manny and I visited Santiago de compostella in July this year for the first time, me my wife Christine and family live in Scotland, we had a different sort of pilgrimage and we met my sisters and family for the 1st time , my father left Galicia in 1965 , I was born 1971 , he died in 1983 so we never had any contact until social media kicked in , since researching and watching lots on CZcams I have enjoyed your video the most ,the scenery, music , and people in the video is great, I may not ever do the Camino due to time commitments but for sure I will return to Santiago de compostella , you have an amazing talent and keep up the great work, thanks again Manny and Christine.

    Because of my disability my body is older than me.I was worried(still am) about slowing people down;spoiling their walk by accidentally getting in their way.The old couple have shown me the way.Just to do it;and do it at my own pace......it isn't a race.Some do the Camino in less than a month.It may take me two.No matter. As long as try it;do it; finish it;that is all that matters.
