Through Jane's experiences and discussions she has with other women pilgrims she meets on the 500 mile trek, you will discover why the Camino (also known as "The Way") attracts people from around the world, and what it means to embrace the Camino.• Learn how to prepare for the Camino, about the daily rituals in long-distance walking, and the camaraderie shared among these modern-day pilgrims.
• Visualize the beauty of northern Spain through Jane’s vivid descriptions.
