Finishing Camino de Santiago

- Yo, yo, yo I am finishing Camino de Santiago today, guys! Camino Portugues was my life for two weeks, I could not think about anything else but hiking to the next town, resting, and doing it again the next morning. Finishing this journey was one of the hardest things I have ever done (I am serious). And it might be impossible for the people who have never been there to understand this weird emptiness that you feel after reaching Santiago de Compostela.
Thank you all for watching!

Honestly, I was going to narrate the last part of the video. It was too emotional to speak so I decided to just type some things I wanted to say. Thanks all for your kind comments, you’re priceless!
You are not empty. You can get eveyting! :)
The feeling of emptiness is the work of the Holy Spirit. You are touched by God. You are enlightened and the feeling is so light, calm and very peaceful.
Whenever it feels cold and grey, I end up watching your videos and it feels like a warm soft sunlight.
The way you tell a story makes me feel like, I am right there experiencing life just as you. From the intro in the beginning of this video where you make a crown of flowers - to the wholesome montage of you walking and showing the remaining distance alternatively is so poetic. Thank you, for making these videos and showing us the world from your eyes 💫
Thank you for watching
Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! you have a gift in fact you are a gift. Buen Camino & Ultreia
It's natural that you feel emptiness after completing the Camino. Yet you made something magical from it and shared that with all of us. My heart feels full right up to the top. Thank you.
Thanks so much Paco ❤️
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Yes! Camino de Santiago is amazing
Diana, you are a phenomenal girl! ❤️ Thank you for sharing your Camino trip! I was following you everywhere you go, as if I myself was a part of it. Thank you for sharing your emotions, they were so sincere! ❤️ The end was so sad, I cried together with you, because you made me experience everything you felt. ❤️ Thank you again and consider me as one of your biggest fans! Best of luck, sweet girl! ❤️
Always happy to read your thoughtful comments! I really really appreciate it!
@@dianawanderlust ❤️❤️
I agree with you! My engkish is very bad, and I can't express my feelings how I want, but yes...... ☺️
@@andya1976m ❤️❤️
This was such a beautiful and emotional video! I think the fact that you didnt narrate the ending left an even more powerful impact on me because I could feel the silence so strong as a contrast. I love how you show the faces of the people you met, I could see the connections you formed with people, nature and yourself so beautifully portrayed in this video, made ME emotional in fact!!!! So happy to see your growth through this not so easy but worth it journey! 👏
PS, did you have drone shots? How did you film the aerial shots?
I carried the drone with me the whole time which was very unnecessary haha. Thanks darling such a beautiful comment, I really appreciate you putting all this effort in watching my videos. Can’t wait to reconnect with you again
They're no effort at all, I get so excited every time you upload a new video! And you have a drone? Thats so coooool, please more drone shots👏👏👏
@@patilkh4888 haha OKAY good to know it wasn’t useless
Thank you for this beatiful video Diana!!
It's curious how many people feel kinda empty after finishing the Camino. I did too. But I would tell you to give yourself some time and you will start to be full of joy (and a happy but nostalgic feeling I can't really explain) when you process everthing that you have experienced. You may even feel the "need" to be back on the Camino!
I also think you can experience all the things the Camino offers anywhere in the world and in any situation, but that's actually what I learned on my first Camino itself!
Sorry for the long comment, I'm just feeling nostalgic right now 😄
I feel you feeling nostalgic ❤️ it’s a magical journey, isn’t it? and the whole experience will forever be with me! Thanks for your comment ❤️❤️
I think the feeling of emptiness is because you feel enlightened --its a very peaceful feeling. For spiritual and religious people this is the feeling of being touch by the Holy Spirit.
I try to experience in my daily life, but the Camino have something special. We are truly authentic there. We can be ourself, without any mask. In our daily life is not so easy. The society don't accept your true self.
But at least we know it can be true that kind of life.
@@andya1976m 100%
This is my favorite video! I slept in Hórreos.
That emotions when you arrive in Santiago and meet your compañeros is priceless.
I never saw Santiago empty. Omg!!! I love when is full of happy people, life, sunshine. But I'm sure you will back some day 😁
Oh, I know this feeling of emptimess after having a great time. Then try to be thankful that it happened and plan the next event. My trip will start in September following your footsteps and your good spirit. Thanks for sharing.
Buen Camino!
These were definitely the best videos from Camino. Thank you for sharing this experience with us!
The reunion of friends in Santiago was one of my favorite things.
Absolutely!!!
You’re are such a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing this journey.
beautiful video,, I got misty eyed at your conclusion of the Camino. I know someday when I do this. I'll be crying for sure.
Thank you for sharing your truest emotions❤️ I’ve felt you every step of the way..This has been amazing to watch and I’m sure you will reflect back on this in your future adventures ❤️

Thanks Monika 😍
Buen Fin Camino!
Poetry ❤️ love this and your soul!
Aww ❤️❤️❤️
Such a wonderful trip. You always find such beauty in the world. I love your travels.
I was so happy to see your new video up today but then sad to see it was the end. What a beautiful girl you are and I loved your flower crown you made. So special. Your journey was very inspiring and encouraging for me to watch. I understand your feelings at the end. The empty streets were in sympathy for you. Thankyou for sharing your thoughts and feelings and journey with us all. xx
Thanks a lot for another heartwarming comment of yours
Sweet Diana..... You are amazing......
I like the flower wreath !
Congrats Diana! What a journey for you. I felt transported back to Santiago. These will be precious memories for years to come…I’m also curious to hear your reflections once things settle down :)
I've enjoyed your journey, thanks for letting us be a very small piece of it.
Diana. Parabéns! Chegar a Santiago de Compostela é uma das maiores felicidades da vida. Amei todos teus vídeos. São muito alegres e extremamente bem editados. Ultreya!
You did it! You did a hard and beautiful thing. The Camino will live on inside your heart forever and it will always be there when you need to go back. Feel all of your feelings. Your Camino never ends because it has shown you the good inside of yourself and in others. You are the Camino now!
Thank you for sharing
It was something special and more for me... Thank you so much Diana, You are beautiful soul

Thanks for sharing this journey with us, Diana! I'm sure you inspired many of us, I am truly inspired and Camino is something I will look forward to in my life.
Thanks for all the beautiful emotions and stories!
Love ❤️
Meri, thanks so much my love!
Really enjoyed your videos, you have a wonderful soul, may you be blessed with happiness everywhere you go 🙏
Thanks for another nice comment 🤍
Thank you so much for your videos.I too had a tear in my eye at your farewell .God Bless your future travels.Philip.
Thanks Philip ❤️
Thank You for sharing your adventure... and your honesty. Friends who have done the Camino have all taken away something different from it... the only commonality has been the gratitude of doing it. A friend reflected on the "weird emptiness" as the expectation that never arrived... and finally concluded that like life, it is all about the journey and not the destination. Again, your editing has been superb... you certainly captured a sense of place and time while still allowing for the wonder of the randomness you encountered... yet all in all, you still kept it intimate and personal. Again... thank you for sharing and Cheers!
Thank Marcel!!! Your comment made me smile ❤️☀️
Thank you for your video on the Camino. I loved hearing you share your impressions, feelings, and experience. Well done on your videography, and your mix of scenes, closeups and commentaries. Looking forward to catch up and check out your earlier ones.
Thanks Ramon! I really appreciate your comment!
Thank you for sharing your Camino. I too became emotional watching your video. I just recently found your channel and am looking forward to future videos. Stay safe.
Thanks Tim! Good to have you here ❤️
congratulations
Well done! You really covered some ground in that short time. The flower garland was so beautiful! It is hard to explain the emotion. I was in the Cathedral for the pilgrim mass and it was standing room only and a young man offered me his seat, it was next to a Nun that was singing beautifully to the mass on her own, another lady then offered me her asile seat so that I could see better. Such consideration. Well, then the emotions came on full blast! So much kindness in the world of man, if we would just let it out, imagine what kind of world this would be! I don't know what it is about the Caminio but there is a bit of magic there, maybe all the years of positive energy permeates the way and one can't help but feel it and absorb some of it.
Thanks for sharing your experience and your honesty, things you said that are part of the experience but generally not relayed in a video, made me laugh. :)
I did the my Caminio in the autumn. You got the benefit of all the flowers, I got the benefit of the harvest season and the fall colours. I was eating wild blackberrys, apples, some grapes, almonds, etc all long the way and local harvest festivals where always festive. So you will have to go back again!
Thanks again, and congratulations on your accomplishment, it is something that has always remained a special part of my life's journey, and I'm sure it will stay a special part of yours. Buen Caminio.
Omg thanks for this comment! I also went on a mass, I got there 30 minutes earlier to have a seat. I asked the lady next to me to keep the seat for me while I was exploring the cathedral, I was out there walking for 25 minutes and when I got back she said goodbye and left. So basically she wanted to leave sooner but set there for me to keep my seat occupied. I felt honored and a bit embarrassed too.
The mass was very emotional too, again - I am not catholic and neither religious but you really don’t have to be to experience the magic.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Diana, all my love to you from Málaga, Spain, you are a so nice and wonderful person,,, Thanks so much for sharing the video and your feelings!! Buen Camino in your life I wish you!
Thank you so much Juan 😍😍
Hola Diana!💞🤗🤗. My eyes are filling up with tears too as I watch your video…more so as I read your comments about your days spent in Santiago!!☺️. Tears of joy, sadness but mostly tears of gratitude🥰🙏🏽. Thank you for sharing your Camino with us!😁💞🤗🤗
Thank you! 🥹🤍
It was really hard work. I pray that only good things will happen in the future. Buen Camino
A beautiful walk, well done. I think the Camino encompasses life in many ways. We are on the one hand all on a "walk" but the walk is unique to everyone. We all get wrapped up in the walk but in the end it is just you. You mentioned a lot of older walkers I think that is because most younger people don't have the time or means to take that much time off, but I am glad you did and shared it with us.
Thanks so much for your feedback ❤️
Congratulations. I start my first Camino (Frances) in August. Can't wait.
Buen Camino!
Thanks for the videos- Next month I will do the camino.
Buen Camino
წარმატებებიიი!!!
შესანიშნავი ადამიანი ხარ და u just have such a calming energyyy!
დიდი მადლობა, ნინი 🤍🥹
I’m so thankful for stumbling upon your vlog, particularly your Camino videos. The footage is absolutely breathtaking, but what resonates with me most are your storytelling and profound reflections of your experiences. These truly reflect the beautiful spirit within you. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for generously sharing these precious moments and experiences with all of us. 🙏🏼
My partner and I are in the midst of planning our own Camino journey and your channel have served as a source of inspiration for us. I’m also thinking of capturing some video memories for our keepsake, but I’m not particularly tech-savvy. I’d greatly appreciate if you could recommend a suitable camera for this purpose, your guidance would mean a lot to me.
Wishing you endless blessings always!
Hey Nick! I honestly used my iPone 12 🥹
Thanks so much for this comment. It put a smile on my face ❤️
@@dianawanderlust thank you!
so impressive
დიანა, შესანიშნავია! ჩემთვის მისაბაძი პიროვნება ხართ💜
უამრავ საინტერესო მოგზაურობას გისურვებთ.
მარიამ, დიდი მადლობა! შენც ასევე გისურვებ უამრავ საინტერესო მოგზაურობას ❤️❤️
Hi there, my friend and I completed the Portugese Camino a week ago and then walked a further 4days to Finisterre. Probably the best four days of all....... I am a 77 female and my walking budding is 64. We loved I all except the first fe days walking out of Porto. It was ver not and far too much road walk-in...... and those cobbles. They are terrible for your leg muscles. You are right about how many older people are now walking the camino’s . It’s great to see that. I bet you will be back for more......
Iris, thanks so much for your comment! I did the Camino de Finisterre too, the video is coming up tomorrow. I’m very excited 🥰
@@dianawanderlust bet you loved it
Thank you for sharing! You inspire me to do this one day! And that it is possible to do it without having tons of money or a 9-5 job! so thank you!
Thanks Josefina! Camino isn’t expensive, that’s for sure! ❤️
I like the sound when you walk, sh-sh-sh, like kids' steps haha 😂
Haha 😅😅
You must be happy ,now you can chase your new dreams 💪👏
Sopio, always happy to see your comments ❤️
You’re a good person. A beautiful Human Being.
I’m tryin’ 😂
@@dianawanderlust well… you’re doing it the right way.
It was very emotional. You made me cry too…. I think it was the best experience in your life.. you made it 👏👏.. ვამაყობ დე❤️❤️❤️
❤️
Nice flowers, you look so beautiful

Wow creative Diana
Congratulations on reaching Santiago. I think it's normal to feel a little lost after arriving at the cathedral and realising there are no more little arrows for you to follow. I walked the Camino Frances ten years ago and every year since I talk about going back again. Someday I will. I wish you well on your next adventure!
I am thinking about going back too ❤️
@@dianawanderlust do it,,,, Camino del norte Diana!!
Thank you Diana for sharing your journey. Your positivism, smile, and funny makes it want to be there now. What would you say its the top thing you are taking away from your Camino?
Hey Jose! I think I practiced a lot of patience on the road. There were a lot of moments when I was in physical pain or tired of walking or hungry but I tried to stay zen and sometimes it worked.
Wow. Big hug from me.
Aww 🤗🤗
This is where "the rest of your life" starts. For at least a couple of years there won't be a day in which you don't talk or think about the Camino. It has changed you and will stay with you. Treasure your feelings now, before life takes over.
You are so so so nice ♥️
Thank you for sharing the videos of the Camino. Truly excellent filming, little vignettes to share the atmosphere. I’m am planning for a Camino in spring 23. One of the interesting part of your videos is I noticed you had always good nutritious food and suspected you are vegan. Answer came up today. Seeing that might be easier to go to vegetarian ways. How did you manage food wise ?
Hey there! Thanks for watching! 60% of the food II ate was store-bought so I did not struggle that much. Vegetarian is definitely way more manageable; if you eat fish you won't have any problem at all.
@@dianawanderlust thanks. I will be planning buying in stores. 55 years vegetarian , 5 vegan, always hoping there is a we way. I never worry but the amount of daily physical effort is going to be intense and my body will need to be fed well. Enjoying your blog
@@CTCJ08 wow that’s impressive! I’m 5 years vegan ❤️ have to admit I had some egg and cheese on the Camino but I’m not too stressed about it. In Galicia, Spain everything is cooked with meat or meet fat
👍🏻🤪💘🤙🏻
Wow, Diana, I saw all your videos during your Camino. Thank you so much for sharing. I am doing the same route on October 10th, 2022 starting in Porto as well. Do you recommend bringing a sleeping bag? Also, it is preferable to make a reservation for each Albergue? Or I just can arrive without it? I am flying from Canada:)
Estre, no need to make reservations, especially in October. I was just calling the Albergues the same day and making sure they had a bed for me. I did not have a sleeping bag and you might need one since it’s gonna be colder than it was in May
@@dianawanderlust, thank you! I'll be thinking about you when I walk the Camino and all the great energy that you inspired me! :)
@@estrecota6165 i hope you are going have the most wonderful time
ძაან კარგია:)) ფორდიდან ხო არ ამბობდა : ვხსნი და ვიბარებ რადუატკოორეეებს :))))
ჯართს ვიბარებო 😅😅
რა ლამაზი ტაძარია
კი, ძალიან! ერთ-ერთი ულამაზესი ტაძარია რაც მინახავს.
Are you sure you're from Georgia and not Spain? I mean you can really roll those Rs!
Haha, it took a lot of practice and now I can’t stop saying them 😅😅
Why was the city so empty at the end of your trip? I felt sorry for you.
It was rainy and every pilgrim left the next day
4:20
What is that thing where you stamp on it
I think you told in previous video that it's passport
What kind of passport it is....???
It’s for the final description. If you don’t have stamps they won’t give you a piece of paper that says you did the Camino.
@@dianawanderlust ohhhhh. It is only for Chile or other countries also.....
I my god you walk toooo much 😄
