Ep 146: Pilgrim Chad does a "connector Camino"

THE PILGRIMAGE JOURNEY CONTINUES FOR PILGRIM CHAD

It seems as though the default choice for walking the Camino de Santiago these days is to walk either the Francés route or the Portuguese route.

Now, that does oversimplify things, but the statistics from the pilgrim’s office in Santiago de Compostela do show that those have been the two most-walked routes in recent years.

My guest on the podcast this week,Chad, has walked both those routes, and now he has taken his pilgrimage practice to other less traveled routes.

What I love about talking with Chad is that he loves the spiritual practice of pilgrimage as much as I do, and it’s become a regular part of his life and his family’s life.

This time Chad will be talking about what he calls his “connector Camino”, which he shared with his 25 year old daughter and regular pilgrimage partner, Bonnie. What does that mean, connector Camino? Well, you’ll see.

Here are the routes Chad is sharing about:

Camino Lebaniego
Camino Vadiniense
Camino San Salvador

The church he talks about with the the relic of the cross of Jesus Christ is at the Monastery of Santo Toribio de Liébana.

The mountain location he talked about is called Fuente Dé, and it is located inside the Picos de Europa National Park.
