Let’s tell the world about these European pilgrimages

My commitment to pilgriming includes sharing the experience with others, especially Americans… to spread the word that this particular way of exploring the world. This is a message that warrants a bit of evangelizing.

I’ll be giving presentations about my two consecutive solo winter treks across Europe – from Canterbury to Rome along the 1,300-mile via francigena, and the 1,500-mile walk from Aix-la-Chapelle (Aachen), Germany to Santiago de Compostella, Spain.

At the moment, I have the following talks scheduled:

I expect these to be a lot of fun, talking about my experiences with the idea that anyone can do the same sort of thing, any time of year.

Go forth, see the world at 3 miles per hour, relax, get fit, eat well, enjoy…

Always interested in talking about this subject, I’ll post other dates as I get them scheduled.

Everyone is welcome =)

Oh I wish I was in the Colorado area to enjoy your talks. I am sure they will be interesting.
Only 24 days and I will be off for Spain and my own first camino. I love reading Camino blogs like yours. They keep me inspired and motivated.
Thanks
Rita

We went to your presentation last night in Boulder. We really enjoyed the program and finding out about the ancient roads. I meant to complement your water colors-they are beautfiul.
