Two years ago I started planning to do the Portuguese Way pf the Camino de Santiago, but “chickened out” thinking I wasn’t ready for it. I ended up spending those days at Trás-Os-Montes (probably my favorite region in Portugal), assuming I’d left the Camino behind for a while. I quickly found out that wasn’t the case, as I discovered I was right in a route that goes through the Montesinho Natural Park (later found out it’s an alternative to the Silver Route that joins the Sanabrese Way). I don’t believe in signs, but this has been a small motivation ever since.This year was the time to finally do it, and Ana Morais and João Eugénio joined me in it. Slowly and steady we managed to walk the 160km from Ponte de Lima to Santiago de Compostela, sit down in the middle of Praza do Obradoiro and stare at the cathedral’s “gigantuous” facade while thinking about what we had done! And I couldn’t stop thinking I’d wanted to keep walking all the way to the coast, to Muxia. Throughout last week I picked  some shots for each day, but  also shared lots of fragments on Instagram Stories.  If you missed some, or want to see all of them again, I grouped all my Camino stories here: www.instagram.com/stories/h… #camino #caminodesantiago
