We made it roughly 25-26 km to San Martín Del Camino today, onward tomorrow to Astorga!

I’m really missing my parents, relatives and close friends today, but I’ve managed to regain my good attitude about this strenuous, enlightening journey! No single day is easy, but every day has something incredibly profound to  teach me. With all of the struggles I’ve experienced since being here my goal of going into environmental or veterinary science has become much more clear. I’m not trying to save the whole planet, that isn’t possible unless we can accomplish a unified mindset similar to that of El Camino. I am trying to find a universal way to promote positivity, love (or alternatively, tolerance, for yourself and for others), a desire to obtain and share wisdom and an increased focus on health (regarding eating habits, general fitness, mentality and communication).  I am uncertain of exactly how to incorporate these focuses altogether, but all great things grew from a seedling of an idea or purpose and I hope to spread these possibilities like a dandelion in the wind!

Sending positivity to all of the other Peregrinos and all of my family and friends back home!
