A book, like a wise friend, who inspires one, in both a touching as well as a humorous manner, to stop and reflect on life's path and the \"way\" it is leading and then, at the end of a stimulating read, one has to bid this friend farewell...\u003c\/i\u003e (CP Magazine)\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eJACKET BLURB\u003c\/b\u003e To be alone with yourself for once, to free your mind, to throw off private and professional ballast. These are the reasons that inspire thousands of pilgrims onto the Way of St. James each year. And so it happened to Eduard Freundlinger: after a chance encounter he spontaneously set out to walk a distance of 800 kilometres - untrained and unprepared - but full of strong determination and always a sense of humour. What started off to be a rather painstaking escape from everyday worries and problems, developed, with every step in the direction of Santiago de Compostela, into paving the way for a happier and more satisfied life.In an appealing but thought-provoking way, Freundlinger relates exciting encounters, bizarre experiences and crazy episodes from his pilgrimage as well as his life's story in an engrossing autobiographical account full of adventure and reflection. He lets the reader share authentically in his conversion to becoming 'Pilgrim Brother Eduard'. \u003cb\u003eREADER'S OPINIONS\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003ePamela Hurley\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eA book that one never forgets. There are books which one might have read already, but would NEVER pass on, books which one keeps sitting on the bedside cabinet and recommend to everyone with joy. This book clearly belongs to them. I feel like having walked along the St. James Way too. It was an adventure whilst reading - moving, deep, personal and thought-provoking. Many thanks for this informative read.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eCynthia Mace\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis has not been the first book about the Way of St. James I have read. But by far the best  I found it very touching as the author not only seasoned it with pleasant humour, but every now and then also allowed the reader a deep insight into his soul. A book written with a lot of honesty which does not only follow the Camino but takes the reader on a journey into Eduard Freundlinger's diversified and interesting life. A 'must' for everyone who keeps thinking about his or her life's deeper sense. Absolutely recommendable \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteven Ruskowsky\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eI know so many books about the Way of St. James, but I cannot quite recall at what time I was so riveted that I had to read it in one go. A thrilling book which makes you think but also makes you laugh. I would highly recommend it.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003ePaul McNeil\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eIt is a rare writer who can honestly and openly share experiences from one's own life, and share in such a way as to hold the reader's interest (and sometimes make one LOL). I personally have no desire to hike long distances or perform any sort of pilgrimage; I simply enjoyed traveling while reading pages and following the author through his journey along The Way of St. James, as he conveys both the inward and outward aspects of this part of his life. His story is told with honesty, clarity, and humor and makes for a most enjoyable reading journey. In fact, altho' I borrowed it thru Kindle Unlimited, I'm going back to buy a copy to keep.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eJanice Kuiper\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eI love the concept of finding one's way while doing 'the way'. I was delighted to find a book that was more about personal struggles and determination than a mere documentary of Camino de Santiago.
