Along The Camino

These stories are my response to walking the Camino de Santiago. It is not a practical guide, nor a series of interviews, nor a memoir. It is story, inspired by my real experiences and infused occasionally with a layer of holy imagination. I know it is worthwhile because I am not just hoping to tell my own story. I am hoping to tell more of the whole story, glimpse more of the whole truth. So, welcome pilgrim! Because I’m a firm believer that whether or not you have already walked or are interested in walking the Camino de Santiago, or a pilgrimage at all, guess what? …YOU'RE ALREADY ON ONE! Helpful hint: If you love descriptive or philosophical ponderings..stick to the even-numbered episodes. If you appreciate imagination, faith and asking what could be...go for the odds. But I hope you can listen to all.

A word about me in the words of Jehanne de Quillan (in the introduction to The Gospel of the Beloved Companion)- "...being neither an academic nor a scholar by profession, I realized that rather than a hindrance, the slack granted me a freedom that would likely be unavailable to those closely guarding the reputations within their chosen field. Not having a reputation to lose means that one can proceed with one’s work without concern for the ripples that it might generate among those who oppose one’s conclusions.” Sincerely- Hollee Brock
