caminando..caminando..caminando

After spending several months dreaming about it, my plans to begin walking el Camino de Santiago de Compostela are almost here. My bag has been packed, unpacked, minimized, and repacked umpteen times.

I have one last trek out to the western zone to finish a final two lessons before I hop onto a plane. As light reading between now and then, I'm reading Paulo Coelho's "The Journey". I have to say though, that although this book is on topic, the beginning chapter is enough to turn me off of it altogether.

I will miss my gang here, but after spending just over a year in the desert, I am really really really ready to see something green.
