findhorn foundation

I visited the findhorn foundation, a spiritual community, eco-village and international centre for holistic education, to join 'Experience Week' before beginning my pilgrimage.

It was heart opening preparation for the walk and now, two years later, I live and work in the community and this blog also explores my journey beyond the Camino.

centres gathering

My journey has evolved to co-ordinate the 2012 international holistic centers gathering, hosted by the Findhorn Foundation as part of their 50th birthday celebrations.

This is a unique opportunity for members of holistic centers around the world to connect with each other, as we help to unfold a new human consciousness on the planet.

Taking it Slowly

I listened to the sounds of birds singing as I mused upon the Camino and contemplated the state of my feet.

A little help from the Red Cross

I’d worn my boots all over the world without a problem and thought I’d breeze along the walk without a single blister. How wrong though can a pilgrim be?

The Wines of the Rioja

Walking through the vineyards of the Rioja and sharing wine with fellow pilgrims was a welcome ritual at the end of the day.

Some pilgrims arrive by vehicle into the cities of Leon and Burgos to avoid long walks through the suburbs. I’d set my heart on walking every step of the way.
