Over the last year I’ve enjoyed learning about the Camino through blogs, conveniently delivered via my WordPress Reader. With Camino season in full swing, there’s been a huge increase of fresh new voices. Some are retelling lessons learned, and others are first time bloggers reporting live from the Camino. I love to curate and share an excellent Camino blog each week, but today it was a struggle to select just one! Here are my Top 5 Favorites from my latest blog binge, in no particular order:

#Camino Day 25 and 26: five reflections on arriving in Santiago Yesterday, I did it. I finally arrived in Santiago. And though the last 5kms felt like the longest I’d walked (and possibly were more than 5kms as I lost the Camino once or twice) the moment I spotted one of the cathedral’s spires I was flooded with relief and happiness. Exhausted and elated, I walked into the square in front of the Cathedral. My eyes were filled with tears and other pilgrims greeted me and hugged me. It was truly a wonderful moment.
