    2 months, 500 miles, and over 1,000,000 steps. The Camino gifted me many things one of which is deep gratitude for the journey itself. I hope you enjoy! BUEN CAMINO!

      Been following your adventures for a while now, especially enjoyed watching this one 🙂. I'm going on my first camino next spring, starting from my hometwon in Belgium. It will take me a good 2 months to get to St-Jean, i'm going as far as Muxia and Finisterre, so i'm thinking i will be hiking fot about 4 months...can't wait 🙂
      Until then i'm living vicariously through your adventures. Thanks for sharing all this x

    Thank you Crystal for this amazing reflection of your journey on the Camino. I am a “veteran” of the Camino having traveled it over the span of three installments in 1999, 2000, and 2001. I have sought out and watched many CZcams video accounts of people who have documented their Camino journey…yours in my opinion was absolutely the best I have ever watched. Your narrative and thoughts so captured the heart, essence, and spirit of this amazing 1000 year old tradition. Bravo, my fellow pilgrim! Thank you and Buen Camino for the many roads to come in your life.

    “What am I really doing with my life?
    I want to be of value to the world. “
    (Midlifecrisis 1.0 - video time 1:00 )
    By documenting a journey like yours, with a video like this, you’re already bringing value to the world! Not only by giving information about the pelgrims hike, but also by openly sharing your struggles with a question most of us will face sometime.
    So maybe your guides gave you an ‘immediate inspiration’ to share the big question - What am I really doing with my life? - and by sharing only you create value.
    Keep up the good work. ❤

    This was really very well done. In 2019 my wife and I walked the Camino Portugues and my daughter walked the Camino Frances and we plan to do the Frances in the future. It's cool that you tackled the impact the walk has on your life. While the reasons for walking are as numerous as the Pilgrims, two lessons for me were that we are all out there for our own reasons and so a perceived unfriendly "Buen Camino" may be simply a sign that the person you just encountered is in the moment of their journey. Nothing more and nothing less. Secondly my walk allowed me to return to my life of abundance and purge a little. Spending weeks with everything you need in a 30 l backpack caused me to view my closet and my possessions differently and over the next 6 months following my return home, I made many trips to Goodwill. Again, thank you for this. Well done. You are a very good visual storyteller and I enjoyed following your journey.

    What a beautiful and honest documentary. I walked the Camino Frances with my sister back in 2018 and this brought back so many memories. I found it hard enough to walk and try to capture in a journal what I was going through. I don't know how you found the energy to not only walk, but film and then edit this project. When I did it, i had to leave my wife and 2 boys behind. My son Tiago was only 6 months old when I left, and I hit that emotional wall in Sahagun. I was missing them so much and felt guilty for being on Camino. I still get teary eyed when watching people enter the courtyard in Santiago de Compostela. The camino is one of my highlights of my life so far. I was so happy to share it with my sister. I am leaving in 2 weeks with my sister to do the camino Portuguese from Porto. Bom Caminho and thanks so much for sharing.

    Since watching the Emilio Estevez/Martin Sheen film, The Way, several years ago, I have periodically binged Camino documentaries and vlogs. This film (Yes! A film rather than a vlog!) is among the best! The exposition of challenges - physical, emotional, philosophical - is heartfelt, honest, and engaging. The traverse of La Meseta really got to me. Your honest discussion of depression at the completion of the trek in Santiago was refreshing. I enjoyed the viewing experience so much that I just emerged from the Icelandic hot springs along with you and your husband! Buen Camino! Ganji per vel!

    I didn't think I'd get emotional watching this, but when you started crying when you made it at the end made me tear up! and then when your friends all cheered you on was such a special moment. I loved your commentary and insights throughout the journey and can relate to a lot fo what you discussed. Feelings of not feeling like you've done anything in your life, questioning what you want out of life. I hope you get all that you desire! I am moving to Spain soon this year and you've inspired me to do complete this walk at some point so thank you! Wish you all the growth, lessons and blessings this life has to teach us.

    You SHOULD think..."LOOK at what I have done.". Not everyone can travel and experience everything you have. All the places & experiences that you share with us. You should look at your life and say to yourself "I've been sooooo lucky". I'm very thankful that you've chosen to share it. 😊

    This entire video touched my heart. You had so many words of wisdom in this documentary. I really needed to hear what you had to say. We all go through different experiences in life. I resonate with the "leaving your past behind" with the rock. The strength it took to endure this walk, we see you! You add value to the world just by being you. I just went through a total emotional day healing. Your video is something that added value to my healing journey. I think that's very beautiful. Thank you for your existence on this planet. ✨️💜

    What a beautiful testimony of your Camino! I connected with your struggle in the middle section. Sometimes I feel a little sad and empty for no obvious reason. It made me feel less isolated for having those emotions when you so eloquently described what that felt like for you and how you gave yourself the grace to just be with those feelings. I’ve hiked the Francais route a few times in my life and I know I will again one day. It’s a place of refuge, beauty and joy. ❤️

You've allowed me to add something to my rucksack (my guides, my intentions) that I'm going to forget when I do the WHW soon. Even if this trail is much shorter on its own, it will still be a revelation for me. I burst into tears when you stood in front of the cross. And you were right, it's not because it's the place and everyone's doing it, that you have to do it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, this video brings me so much,

You are an inspiration to me and, I’m sure , to many others as well . I have so enjoyed following you on this trek . I truly feel that doing this trip alone , as you did , is the most beneficial to the soul . I really do , as arduous as it may appear at times . I’m so happy that you got so much out of your experience . Your truly heartfelt emotion at the end of your journey said it all . Omg You actually made me tear up as well! 😭

I imagined to myself what it would be like to leave a husband and children (old ones who already work) for so many days and all the emotions on the surface... and although it may be hard and painful, It would also be beautiful... I've had the idea of ​​going for five years now, I'm preparing myself, God willing, for next year... So congratulations on everything you've achieved on this path and I wish you a blessed path in life.

    Me ha encantado tu viaje.El video está muy bien editado y con mucho sentido. El Camino es un viaje introspectivo que todos deberíamos hacer una vez en la vida, salir de nuestra zona de confort y encontrarnos a nosotros mismos. Tú ya lo has hecho, gracias por compartirlo.

    I really enjoyed this, your sincerity and everything. I am 60 and want to do this soon for many reasons. I am starting to get more serious about it and watching more videos to learn and prepare myself more mentally. Now to prepare myself physically.

    Thank you for sharing your journey. I love your authenticity. Last year my sister and I walked the Portuguese route. I wanted to reflect on my life. I was very grateful for that opportunity. I plan to do the French route but can’t find the courage right now. I’m scared of being lost….I will do it someday. Take care and hope you’re doing well.

    Fabulous video that you. It brought back memories and emotions from when I did it 7 years ago. When you cried, I cried along with you. Watching your video was like reliving my own journey. And I too had feet that looked like yours with bandages and plasters all over them and walked half the time in my sandles. Well done, you did a wonderful job of the video.

    more interesting than seeing the beautiful landscapes of the Camino again is recognizing in other people the transformations that this experience brings... only those who have overcome their challenges recognize every smile and every tear. excellent video.

    Thank you for this, I enjoyed it greatly. I really choked up watching parts of this especially your last few kilometers, (yes us men have emotions 😂) but I loved the laughter too and the beautiful contacts you had with others. I too walked the Francais and like you I believe I found myself and it has made me a better person.
    So thank you so much for this excellent contribution to the camino I've watched a lot and its up there with the best! Bless you.

    OMG what a fantastic video/journey, I felt like I was with you, now I don't have to do it myself (I couldn't if I tried) you were amazing, I cried, laughed and loved every bit about the journey, I cried so much at the end for you with mixed emotions, what a feeling it must have been, what a wonderful young lady you are, I hope you truly have an amazing and more adventuristic life, thank you so much for sharing this unbelievable journey x (UK)

      Thank you! I am still walking :) We just finished the West Highland Way and Great Glen way in Scotland. It was beautiful but very different than the Camino. I think Camino's can look many different ways. Maybe you can take your own Camino, even if it is near your home or more of an inward Camino if you are unable to walk. I appreciate the kind words. Blessed be
