Download or read book Along the Camino Portugu s written by Julia Zacharias and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-05-22 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrimages have great historical and religious significance. The Camino Portugués is one such pilgrimage. Its origins date to medieval times, and people today still walk the trails, some for spiritual purposes, but others simply for the joy of retracing the steps taken by many before them. Julia Zacharias and her partner, Katharine, took on the challenge of this 300-kilometre walk from Porto, Portugal, to Finisterre, Spain, in 2015. During the weeks along this coastal and picturesque trail, Julia documented her experiences with intricately detailed drawings of the forests, rivers, ancient stone structures, and animals she encountered along the way. Despite her fragile hip, and the challenges it presented, she persevered on this once-in-a-lifetime experience with her once-in-a-lifetime love. They climbed countless mountainsides, sang away the heat of the day, and dreamt new dreams as they gradually learned how slowing down can open up a new appreciation for the simple things in life. Along the Camino Portugués is a love letter to this incredible experience, peppered with whimsical artwork that evokes the feelings, sights, and sounds of this unique trip. Whether you plan to walk the Camino Portugués yourself or just wonder what it may be like, this book will transport you, taking you on an unforgettable journey of discovery.

Book excerpt: Trekking 500 miles on the ancient Camino de Santiago was not just an item for Russ Eanes to check off his bucket list. It was a journey he had dreamed of taking for decades. At age 61, with his children grown, he was too young to retire but wise enough to know that he needed to reorient the hurried pace of his life. He left his work and took a sabbatical to "reset" himself and the first step was to head to the Camino. With everything he needed in a 16-pound pack and, equipped with a set of seven simple principles, he took off from St. Jean Pied de Port, France, to walk, as pilgrims have for twelve centuries, across Spain, to realize his dream. It was the Walk of a Lifetime. In a style that is part personal memoir and part travel memoir, he combines history, spirituality, coffee, culture and humor into an engaging journey of personal rediscovery.

Download or read book Northward To Santiago written by Patrick Tierney and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year hundreds of thousands of pilgrims make their painful, blister-popping way to the shrine of St James in Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain. Most follow the celebrated Camino Francés over the Pyrenees then westward for nearly 780 kilometres; fewer choose to walk the quieter, lesser-known and - let's be honest - much shorter Camino Portugués which winds from Lisbon, north through Porto, into Galicia. Always a man to do things by halves, Patrick Tierney - a product of that gift that keeps on giving: a 1950s Irish Catholic upbringing - set out to walk the upper section of the Portuguese route. After a few heady days sampling the city's eponymous liquor, he skulks out of Porto into the shimmering heat of July, intending to reach Santiago in time for the city's annual celebration of its patron saint. On the way, our wanderer wrestles with many important issues. Can an atheist really go on pilgrimage? Could a two-week solitary hike help him adapt to life on his own following the death of his beloved wife? Is walking alone a good way to meet people? Who knew a combination of Compeed and Vaseline could ease the path to salvation? And can a thirsty Irishman find a decent beer anywhere in Iberia?Punctuated by creaking knees and a daily battle against chafing in unmentionable places, 'Northward to Santiago' is part memoir, part rumination on grief and loss, and in no way a reliable guide to hiking anywhere. Written by a man happy to describe himself as 'a mere pond skater on the meniscus of life', it offers neither insight nor profundity. It is instead an honest attempt to map the internal and external journey of a grumpy cynic, ageing and aching his way to some sort of reconciliation with what he has lost, gratitude for what he has had and, perhaps, picking up along the way faint hints of a future still to be explored. And - trigger alert - its pages contain splutterings that purport to be 'poetry'. You have been warned.

Book excerpt: The sky darkens and the wind increases rustling the leaves of the trees. The fragrance of Eucalyptus is in the air, and it feels biblical. As soon as I step under a canopy of trees, the sky opens up. I leap up under a tree and lean against the muddy wall of the trail and wait as God unleashes His power.
