Walking across Belgium, France, and Spain for four and a half months I find myself still adjusting and after a month and a half I have taken a semi break from social media. I have been doing quiet reflection on what happened physically, emotionally and spiritually. Since arriving back to the Netherlands we decided to continue our journey by joining a gym, jogging again, and continue hiking. After a week and a half of this Noël and I started having health issues. Noël’s eyes started itching, swelling, we finally found out it was an allergic reaction. I had bronchitis. It was a bummer. But now we are better!!

And now we are off on our next adventure! We are headed to Texas to celebrate my mom’s 97th birthday, see my son, and my sister and her family. We are NOT super excited except for the heat.

PILGRIMAGE: A journey of thoughtful intention with an unknown outcome.

This time out is also a pilgrimage of sorts. Sometimes the body insists on rest and that’s what we have had to do. At the same time we have enjoyed family time!

We are finally back at the gym and running and hiking. We are preparing for our next adventure which will be walking the Primitivo but also part of the Northern Camino from Bilbao to Santiago de Compostela.

I hope you are all doing well.
