Graffiti Messages from God: Life Lessons on the Camino de Santiago (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781704587226)

At its most basic level, the Camino de Santiago is a long walk. It's also a religious pilgrimage for many Catholics, one that dates back to the ninth century. For others, the Camino is a spiritual meditation where the mindless act of walking allows one to enter an almost Zen-like state. And for still others, it's a physical challenge to conquer as one walks hundreds of miles over mountains and the flat Meseta, through tiny villages and large cities, alongside breathtaking scenery and heartbreaking poverty.The Camino begins wherever you need it to and follows a variety of paths, all marked by yellow arrows. No matter which road is taken, they all end in the cathedral plaza of Santiago de Compostela, in the northwest corner of Spain.Every Camino is as unique as the individual walking it. This short book tells about my 37-day journey in the form of letters and reflections written to my parents, each sparked by a unique message scrawled by a fellow traveler, which I captured in a corresponding photograph.
