The reason to WALK ALONE the Camino de Santiago
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 เม.ย. 2022
- Sometimes the solitude is misjudged as loneliness, and tranquility is misunderstood as boredom - in Camino de Santiago you can learn how to see clearly the difference and fully enjoy the long walks alone!
In this video I use some of my meditation experience as a long time practitioner and teacher and give some easy tips to use in your day to day life, especially if you do the Camino. This happens to be a perfect "battlefield" for everyone who is seeking the better conception with oneself and understanding how the mind works.

I just completed the Camino del Norte on my own a few days ago. I'm a 27 year old woman, never felt unsafe and had no bad experiences, so go for it ladies! doing the camino alone is truly an amazing experience
And you are never really alone on the Camino.
Completely agree! Awww I’m missing so much the Deva and Zarauz, one of the finest parts of the Bask Country..
thanks for this comment!
Thank you for sharing with us. More women to get out there and walk. I am doing it June 5-25, 2023. Then return alone for a month in 2024.
it was really my best time, by myself on the camino. Although i loved meeting people to, on the way. but the walking itself , thats for me :)))) I did the camino Frances in 2018, Did part of it again until Leon last year. This summer i want to walk from Leon to Fin. to Muxia.... When people at home want to join me to the Camino, i can clearly say no . I encourage my friends to go alone . That s the best way.
I Totally understand you! It is a personal trip, altought when the life brings the people on my way, I won't say no... with time everything will take it's own course. Big hugs for you and hope that your Camino will be full of peace and joy
I appreciate you discussing this aspect of the gift that the camino experience offers us.
To be honest, this are the videos that we really appreciate doing! Thanks a lot
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I am going June 5, 2023. I can't wait.
Thank you so much for being and sharing with us!
❤️ You’ve touched my heart.
Beautifully said and shown, Ricky. I’m on my first Camino now - four days into the Frances. This helped as I experience the early waves of anxiety and self-doubt. Thank you.
I hope you’re doing fine! Where are you at the moment? And how do you find the stillness in constantly moving camino reality?
This was a beautiful video! When I am on a long distance trail I often start thinking about the next trail...it starts slowly and before I know it my mind has me there.
You've reminded me of the beauty of solitude. Thank you!
Thank you Here and Now :)
Thanks! Loved your words, your heart and insights. Aligning and uplifted with it all.
Thank you Kathryn ❤️
My favorite so far! You are so right! I watched a youtube story of a man who walked the camino, met a man from Japan then walked the pilgrimage you are talking about. Two great documentaries. Well done!
Thanks Wendy! I really hope that I can realize that small dream of Japan's pilgrimage and share it with all :) big hugs and thanks for the ☕💚🙏👌
there is no judgement in nature, you would never judge a tree for being too tall or too short 🌲
💚💚👌🙏
In a spirit journey everyone is solo. If you prefer not to think then you won't be solo or on the journey. This episode is very nicely edited. Thanks for putting up together such beautiful edition of Camino. In my mind the best part of long walk day by day is meditation.
Totally agree 💚 thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙏👌
Thank you for this wonderful, enlightening video. I agree with you. Walking the Camino is a pilgrimage, a journey into one's self. Walk alone. That's right.
I'm planning my first Camino for June-July 2023 in time for the Feastday of Santiago. I hope to see you on the Camino. God bless you always. #StaySafePRAYALWAYS
Big hug for you! Thanks for this personal sharing 💚🙏
I echo the same comments of many of the others here... as a life-long learner of silence and as an avid hiker... this is certainly one of your best videos. Thank you for your thoughtful teachings about the Camino. Peace to you, my brother.
Thank you my brother! hugs
Each video of yours makes me emotive! I will do my camino this summer... Thank you for sharing your experience of the camino.
🥰 Buen Camino!
Im happy that it was your video/channel taht i saw today when i searched for camino.. 🙏🏻❤️
It makes me happy to help in this amazing journey ;) 💚
Thank you for this meaningful video.
You are so welcome 💚
That day looked absolutely beautiful. In the Camino, as in everyday life, we need our space to think. Naturally our mind goes to the past and the future, not always in the present. It clears the mind to think of the good past, the bad past and the best future. I always preferred to walk alone and empty my mind of the business in life. Meditation doesn't always involve sitting in silence with your legs crossed :)
Congratulations on another great, thoughtful, inspiring video.
Thanks Robb! We are on the same page :) big hugs and buen Camino
I love that you bringing mindfulness to the the journey. I was listening to Thich Nhat Hanh today talking about walking meditation, I am here, I am home. Thank you for being present and encouraging others to be present.
Thank you for being :)
I loved this video! I plan to walk alone and I’m used to being alone in my regular life. I’m more concerned about not being alone enough on the Camino! I want to walk the Norte, so hopefully that will be more peaceful. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you for sharing 💚💚
Thank you for such a perfect video! This is one of the main reasons I am going to do the Camino - to quiet my mind and find (reveal?) some clarity on life and my role in it. I’m so excited to spend time just being alone!
It’s great to have you here! If you need any info just ask ;) keep us updated, higs
Watching this one again today. One of my favorites of your videos! 🥾🥾🥾
Wow, thanks! Every camino channel is different- epfren does his stuff, Jeremiah has it’s vibe, for me Camino is an inner adventure, a chance for great transformation! I wish I could talk about more in my videos…
Thanks again for being here
Hugs
thank you. most enjoyable . you have a wonderful way with words. cheers!
Thank you Patrick! I'm glad this video reaches peoples hearts 💕
beautiful speeches! Thanks 🙏🏼
🙏🙏💚
Me ha gustado mucho este video, tus palabras y cómo nos compartes tus experiencias y consejos . Espero poder hacer el Camino algún día.
Saludos desde Ecuador
Raul de Ecuador 🇪🇨 ! Gracias por compartir tu feedback. Si pones la intención en hacerlo, seguro que ocurrirá!
Así que en algunos meses nos veremos en el Camino amigo ;)
I've been to Japan 3 times and I hope to retire there in my old age and just travel the Komodo trail, it looks fascinating. I look forward to your plans for that trip. Japan is an amazing place.
Fingers crossed! 🙏👌
That shot of you at the crossroads WOW!
Thanks a lot! It is one of my favourite ones too :)
Many thanks for your thoughts on being present on the camino....i also would be interested in more of your insights into meditaion🙏
You are very welcome! I ll be sortly opening a small channel about that... I ll let you know! Meanwile- be here NOW :)
Your videos and the ones by Mike Woodrich from Germany inspire me the most. As a 65 year old female of small stature, I know better than to set unreasonable goals. However, I would enjoy traveling without reservations except for my round trip ticket from Atlanta to Paris. Am I crazy? I can afford a more comfortable scenario, but secretly wish for an authentic experience reminiscent of my reckless youth when we took trains and went everywhere in Europe with no smart phone! Best Moira
Moira! Thank you so much sharing your thought and I strongly encourage you to do it the way you feel! The urge that you feel is a common sensation in many of us… and normally if that urge comes from guts, heart or within , it is never wrong!
You will find many likeminded people on this journey 🙏💚
Thanks!
🙏💚
❤❤❤
Great talk about the mind and how it relaxes on the Camino Frances which after completing the Del Norte and Portuguese coastal is my personal favourite way so far and I would like to do again in future. I also did the Kumano Kodo in Japan which is a challenging hike more mountainous but unlike the Spanish and Portuguese caminos is not in a straight line but 3 different paths but worth doing all the same and watch out for the many many snakes along the paths!!
I hope in future to also do the Shikoku 88 temple pilgrimage.
Just a note at 4.30mins of your vlog you mention "there is more than 15 caminos" the Pilgrim Museum in Santiago beside the Cathedral (free entry with your pilgrim passport in 2017 when I visited) lists 39 different recognised Camino ways for your information.
Looking forward to the next vlog CT - CC.
Buen Camino Peregrino!
Thanks Mark! It's great to get the feedback from the true lover of pilgrimage, you must have thousand precious stories to tell 💚 let's hope the Japan will open soon and we can go and enjoy the 88 temples... big hugs and Buen Camino 🙏👌
@@caminotellers Yes I treasure each and every Camino step and that I was lucky to have the time between 2017 & 19 to do them.
It would be my pleasure to meet you along the way somewhere in Japan or Spain CT-CC sometime in 2023.
Appreciated that you take the time to film and edit and share your brilliant vlogs with us and bring us back to the Camino - Ultreya!

Hi Ricky Thank you for great content and relevant information in your videos ... you have already made many of my days much more laughable 😀 giving me courage for planning for my future Camino... I'm living in region Alicante but it looks not very reasonable to walk from here... hmm 🤔 Maybe I should start in Seville...
Dear Katrine! Thanks a lot for all kind words💚💚💚 I think there is a power and urgency to answer “the camino call”, when it calls you!
If you stay in Alicante you could think about camino de Lana (wool way)…
The vía de plata from Seville is only to be done in spring and autumn… 🌞🌞🌞🌞🔥🔥🔥🔥
The practice of just Being & quiet the internal noise is harder than most people expect!!
Walking in nature helps to make it more doable ;) that’s the magic of Camino 💚💚
Love all your videos! Thanks for taking us along on your awesome adventure. Our Camino will start this June and we are very nervous. Doing Camino with 3 kids (12,8,5). Hope we can complete the 500 miles. Buen Camino!!!
Thank you sooo much! What an adventure you are just about to start!! I ll be there in june, so we might meet and celebrate! Big hugs for all the family
I've just found your channel and since I want to go on the Camino Santiago walk next year I'm preparing.
Holy Moley...on my own ! 😳...yikes !
Can I really do it ??
It seems I don't need to look for any further videos from anyone else for info because you're very informative...sincere...and funny !
Much Appreciated...🤗🏴...hugs !
awww! thanks a lot "M"! which camino are you planning to do?
@@caminotellers
Not quite sure of all routes yet or distances of each one.
I'm a novice to all this although I watched the film a number of years ago called The Way and knew at some point I'd do the walk.
The time is now for me to get prepared and informed.
Next April was my planned month but too much drama here...constant distractions...so it could be earlier.. October this year....who know's....I'll go with the Universal Flow...which is picking up speed...🤗🙏
@@jesusisking3974 let the intuition guide you :)
@@caminotellers
Just finished watching a 2 hour documentary film called..The road to Santiago....starting from St Jean Port..France....then from there the whole 800kms mapping all the places on route...which I have taken notes from.
Geez...I'm getting serious about this.
Anyway since I'm challenging myself to do the whole 800kms...I will start at St Jean.
Also logging your videos as they are more cheery than the documentary was. 👍
One begins to feel separated from (not controlled by) the mind. As if you were riding within…hard to explain. Love it.
omm! big hugs to you, hope to meet on Camino and meditate together, hugs
one of your best, and that‘s saying something! 🤩 - btw, I tried to get you a coffee the other day, but the captcha kept giving me an error upon payment. odd. I#L.A. try again soon.
Thank you Gerrit! That feedback means a lot for me :) putting love in what I do always pays back! Sending you big hug 💚👌🙏
I'm Franciscan Friars, a spiritual director, and I (Ego) facility, a contemplative prayer group. I (Ego) teach my students to acknowledge the thought but not give it gas. To observe it like passing clouds.
I invite those that walk the Camino. Walking the first half is like your first day of life, and the second half is your last day. Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!!
It took me many days before it was quiet on the top floor, when I walked the Camino... ;)
Any noise neighbours nowadays in the top floor?
Ricky, I am thinking of doing the El Camino Frances starting September 7, 2022. I have picked this date because the temperature will be a little cooler and the busy summer season of pilgrims will have eased a bit. Do you think all the alberges will still be open and have available beds or will it be necessary to make reservations in advance.
Sounds great! Where will you start from? September tend to be more busy but I think you should have any problems...
Desde donde empezaste el camino francés , saludos y abrazos !
Hola! Empecé en sjpdp... a ver donde termino :)
Odd question but what hat are you using here? 11:24 thanks Ricky
It is a simple Decathlon hat with neck protection! I think we have one linked to our description- from North Face, super useful!
Go alone. If part of a group decisions take forever. Inane chatter disturbs your mind. You go at the pace of the slowest or split up causing friction, hanging around etc etc.
This is a spiritual thing, not a party.
There is time for socialising and meeting new people in the evening.
Wise words
What brand of sun hat were you wearing, with the neck protection, to keep the sun off your neck?
Badger! Its a "Decathlon brand" hat.. 14 euros! You can get more fancy one, like Buff brand, but the price si 50euros.
What selfie stick do you use?
Simple go pro small tripod. The effect is nice cause of the wide lence capacity of go pro 💪👌
its like 1000 euro. if its a pilgaramage route u should be able to sleep on the side of the rode
True! Next year we will do a Camino only in Donation based places to see if Camino is still possible without breaking the bank! Hugs
Good video - but I am shocked by the utter destruction of the landscape - there is a place for agriculture, but natural fields, woods and meadows have been completely replaced by modern grass monocultures for livestock feeding. Except for the odd little bush in a pile of stones there is no room for nature. Quite sad.
The landscapes changes…and the Camino changes too…
Thanks!
🙏💚
