  • After 2 months and 500 miles on the Camino de Santiago, my pilgrimage is finally coming to an end and it was so much more than I expected.
    I remember my first day on the Camino Frances in Saint Jean Pied de Port France; I was so nervous and excited. And now at the end, I feel whole in a way I can't really explain but I am trusting this series, and even just this video, will give you a peak inside the magic of the Camino de Santiago. It changed my life. And I am forever grateful. BUEN CAMINO!

    Being on this journey with all of you has been a journey in itself. It was like walking another Camino - reliving each moment as I edited each video in this series. I can't explain how much sharing this pilgrimage has meant to me so instead I will just say THANK YOU. Thank you for watching and being part of my growth! BUEN CAMINO!

    Wow, Crystal! Words cannot express my feelings in watching your final day as well as your entire Camino series. You have captured the essence of this journey and experience in an incredibly beautiful and personal way. I cannot thank you enough for filming (and editing) this adventure so that all of us could experience it with you. This is truly a masterpiece! Thank you again.

    Fantastic series. I did the Camino Francis in September and felt exactly the way you described. I cried for so many reasons at the end and like you, I feel it has changed me forever. Before the journey I doubted myself but know I feel that there’s nothing I cannot do. Your videos are fantastic and brought me right back. Great work and thanks so much for sharing this incredible journey.

    Thank for for this beautiful video. I walked the Camino in 2019 and cried so much. On the penultimate day, I was incredibly conflicted about my Camino coming to an end. I was excited about reaching what had become the mythical cathedral but I also knew that I wasn't ready for my journey to end. 4 years later I ache to recapture the joy of this achievement. God bless you

    I am planning to do the Camino in May 2025 after my daughter finishes school and I cant wait. 29 months to go!!! Watching your journey has been a big driver for me. Instead of feeling its something that I cant do I now see myself giving it a go. And also doing it as a sole female traveler (will be 57 by then) :-) I am now living and breathing the Camino and feel such excitement. I'm breaking in my first pair of hiking boots and as you so wisely said "The Camino journey begins when you first make the decision to do it." Thank you for being so open and vulnerable in your vlogs gorgeous. We don't actually have one sole purpose in life. We have many missions as we move along our timeline of life and whether you know it or not yours has been the "Teacher" and the educator for the rest of us. Bless

    • @vanhallaadventures

      @@vanhallaadventures Thanks Gorgeous. Im such an introvert but I really feel called to do this on my own. My daughter will be travelling around in a van (like you) in her gap year so she wont be joining me. I really feel I want to travel solo too. I was so teary throughout your last post which validates that this is right for me. Im going to answer the call... 29 months to go!!! Sooo looking forward to seeing your next adventure. In love & Light..🥰

    Thank you Crystal for creating & sharing all that you encountered and experienced on the Camino. I am so hyped and waiting patiently for my 60-day journey to start April 2025 in celebration of my 60th year on earth ... a day for each year to connect, meditate & reflect upon all that life is ... in body, soul and spirit. Wherever you are today, remember you are loved & whole 💞 and Buen Camino!

    Great intro. Brought me back to when I completed my CF in September 2021. Overwhelmed by what I had done, surprised by what I had seen and who I had met, and unsure of what I would do next. I cried, laughed, sighed, and smiled. Then there were the bagpipes.....

    Thank you for sharing the journey. Every Saturday I looked forward to your videos more than a Netflix series drop.😊 You’ve inspired me to do the Camino. I used to live on the Portuguese camino (coastal) and never thought much about it, but your videos found me at a pivotal moment in my life and spoke to me. Thank you for your candour and conscientious documenting of the camino.

    Congratulations seems such a wishi-washi way of letting you know the impact your series has had! Your growth and being able to find the spirituality that obviously was missing brought me to tears as you approached Santiago. I can’t wait to be a virtual hitchhiker again on your next Camino. May God continue blessing you always. 💥

    Another great segment of your journey. I’m sad that this was the last of the Camino journey for you but also for those of us following. I’m walking the last part this April and found myself saying “ I’ll be there! And I’ll be there” as I saw your footage. Thank you for being an inspiration❤

    • @stevefogg3250
      @stevefogg3250 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Should you be thinking of doing a shortish Camino I would recommend starting in a picturesque town called Villafranca del Bierzo. That way you would get the more unspoilt pre-Sarria stages followed by the noisy and boisterous final stages from Sarria to Santiago. I, personally, love both. The stunning mountainous scenery prior to Sarria and the joyous celebration that awaits from Sarria onwards.

    I am so happy for you. Your Camino isn't over, it is now a part of you and everything you learned about yourself and the world. The Camino helps all of us to become more of who we "really are" and then we go home and try to explain it to others. An impossible task but still we try. Your videos brought me so much joy as I remembered my own 2016 journey. God bless you and Buen Camino.

  • @markwilliamson9140

    Very well done Crystal. I'm proud of your achievement. You're a wonderful person and the videos are exceptional and very well made. I think you've captured a lot of different emotions in the video. You have shown the realism of what walking the Camino is about. Thank you so much for being real and showing us your human emotions. I hope you gained a spiritual sense of growth in your journey and I hope you healed from whatever you needed healing from. Hope it was a blessing for you to be a pilgrim. you've inspired me to on a pilgrimage myself to find my spiritual path in life. I shall be looking forward to what you have in store next time round on your travels, hopefully you'll be doing a journey with your fella. That would be interesting to see. Thanking you always for these wonderful videos lots of love and care from England 👍

    Thank you so much for this series. I've never watched camino videos that are so truthful and helpful before. Most never show the real camino, the injuries, the emotion, the cow and horse poop! As a woman who longs to walk the camino most probably solo, your videos have only reconfirmed how much I'd want to walk the way. I feel like I experienced your journey with you through your amazing storytelling and filming. Again thank you Crystal.

    Thank you so much for creating and sharing this video with us :) It really is an awesome experience to come to after a long and exhausting day at work. Overall, lately, things have been feeling a little heavy, and watching this really then helps to get out of space and experience the lost perspective that once gave me the courage to do great things. Thank you again and wishing you all the best :)

      Thank you!!! One of the greatest joys has been sharing these videos which I didn't actually expect. It feels like the Camino is still working itself through me because I get to pass on the beauty to all of you and I can not express my gratitude enough so thank you for watching - it means SO much to me

    I think i watched this part about 5 times and every time i'm crying as much as you do 🙂
    I'm walking the way next spring, starting in my hometown Ostend, Belgium...i will be walking about 2300km to get to Santiago and i will continue to Muxia and Finisterre.
    I'm pretty sure it will change my life as it did yours...thanks for sharing your journey...lots of love 🙂♥

    I'm a bit late to the show but over the last few days binged your Camino walk. Loved it. What an experience. I've only done 3 Scottish distance walks but definitely want to do more as such a different experience than day walks. The way you film & share your thoughts is so lovely, thank you.

    We started the Camino on the same day in May (I was there when the ambulance helicopter was on the mountain on the way to Orisson). I met some of the same people on The Way (the earlier episodes, as I walked a bit faster than you and finished at the end of June). It’s been a pleasure watching your journey, which brought back many memories. I cannot believe it’s been over six months now! I feel your emotions and reflections upon completing the pilgrimage resonate with mine. 👍

    I send you great blessings, as to find that inner strength, to find that confidence, will be with you, all your life. I too did a trek when I was your age, only you know that true feeling. Keep your basic goodness, and share throughout your life.

    Congratulations Crystal! I've been following your journey the past couple of months and re-living my 2 Caminos through your videos - 1st with my wife in 2019 and my solo walk in June of 2022. I appreciate your honest and real assessment of the walk - both the good and the not so good. After giving it some thought, I've summarized my lessons from the Camino that I've shared with others. God bless you and your journey through life and Buen Camino!
    Check Your Expectations
    The destination will be different than you imagined. Pay attention to the journey
    Be Grateful
    Gratitude is the beginning of Hope and Hope leads to Joy
    Don’t Pack Heavy
    Only bring what you really need. Lighten your load by helping others
    Plan Carefully
    But control is an illusion. Your Camino will happen as it should
    Heed the Signs
    They’re not always obvious but be patient, your Way will be revealed
    Walk Your Camino
    Others may be faster, but you’ll still end up at the same destination
    The Camino Doesn’t End
    Because it’s a metaphor for life - and trust me, you’ll want to go back!

    so effective at the end. I'm tearing up over this! My family says we have Scottish roots and it's kind of a place I wish I could visit someday. Awesome editing btw. Scotland needs to use the end of this clip for a TV ad or what have you! Wonder if it can be submitted to the tourism org, or similar. 💗💗

    Congratulations! What a journey! I have longed to do the Camino for years, but due to children, work and then physical issues, have not been able to. Now, after a recent back surgery and upcoming hip replacement I still hold the hope that it might still be possible. 🥰
