Thank you so much for this. Watching for the second time. I didn't get to do the Le Puy this year like I'd wanted to, but seeing this allows me to experience it. I'm just so grateful. This is beyond beautiful, this footage. What a gift to us pilgrims this vlog will be.
Your videos are benchmark for travel videos. A sensitivity to and for cultures, showing what’s around the next bend, giving vision to what many would miss,only seeing it passing by once and moving on. The cinematography adds to an evanescent sense of wonder that some other world travelers are missing by compression, here..we’re allowed to breath a little, take time to not only smell the roses but to walk the garden. Teaching about the Way and taking away some mysteries…in a good way…but leaving enough so that a sense of innocence and wonder and adventure is still alive and attractive enough to draw someone in. Eating drinking sharing the road as if we’re along is the best part. Here’s to the journey🙏
En fait, lors de la rénovation de la cathédrale du Puy il y a une vingtaine d’année, il a été décidé de revenir à la configuration d’origine à savoir l’entrée par le centre de l’édifice. Cette entrée avait été comblée il y a tres longtemps car cela faisait trop rentrer de froid en hivers. C’était pourtant tout à fait logique car la cathédrale est à moitié dans le vide (d’où les gros pilier sous la façade). On disait d’ailleurs à l’époque que l’on rentrait dans la cathédrale par le nombril et l’on ressortait par les oreilles 😂 j’ai l’impression que les pèlerins font l’inverse maintenant.
Such a symbolic commencement to a Camino and such a lovely starting point, thank you for sharing Efren. Another Camino for the bucket list, love it. I like the way you threw in a word of Italian.
Another one on my list,i walked lucca to rome in june,10 days over st bernard pass from martigny in july and st jean to logrono in september again,still magical!
I'm behind in watching videos but I wanted to tell you I loved the view when you came out of that canopy - looking out over the wheat fields to the hills and valleys beyond...on my. Lovely. Excellent vlog as always!
I'm totally stealing your plastic lunch box idea on my next camino. Nice way to keep all the snacks, food and utensils together. I walked Le Puy in August/Sept 2019, so this is really bringing it all back for me.
Thx Efren, what a beautiful and another inspiring video about another new Camino adventure. At the same time Sept. '21, a bit more up north, I was on the Camino de Vézelay. Buen Camino.
Thank you for the great new Videos.Wanted to see them so much that i am no longer just a Cup of Coffee.I tell you i´m not dissappointed,it was the right decision! Walk on and "Buen Camino"
I'm absolutely in love with your videos! I'm planning to walk to Santiago all the way from Germany this year, taking the Via Podiensis and continuing on the Camino Del Norte. Your videos have been really informative :)
Love watching your videos and it shows a lovely arial of the villages we walk into. Thank you. I would like to ask how you made contact with the accommodation in Le Puy, at the Relais du Pelerin St-Jaques. We are wishing to stay next April 2023.
They open the floor of the cathedral. Just think of the team who came up with that idea. So amazing. If all goes well Sept 2022...I 'll be there yikes!!!,
I enjoyed each moment of this video...so happy to follow you on this trail, as I was curious to see it...hopefully I'll do it myself, one day Thank you Efren

@bmdrona 1 second ago I started my Chemin de St Jacques in Sept 2021 and it is so wonderfully refreshing watching Efren's video. Thank you very much for your production.
Qué bonito narras y qué hermosas tomas logras capturar. Nunca había visto algún video tuyo. Me encantó. Gracias por compartir. Por tu nombre asumo que hablas español y porque cuando pronuncias algo en español lo haces con acento latino muy bien pronunciado. Gracias de nuevo he disfrutado mucho el video
@@Walk_with_Efren de verdad me has inspirado!!! No puedo dejar de ver tus videos. Tengo un canal de psicología y viajes y me desanimo mucho, pero ver la combinación qué haces entre arte, y conexión humana, wowww me encanta! Gracias por eso! Estás cambiando maneras de pensar y eso es lo que realmente importa!
Watched the entire Via Francegina series earlier this week. Took me three days. That camino was an epic achievement, doing the whole route starting from Canterbury and taking the grinding plains of the northwestern France under the scorching Sun. Compared to the Via Francegina vlogs, I like the changes you've made how you use audio and what is the ratio of talking/not talking.
Hi efren…. I know this via podensis is some time ago ,and l have watched some of the later vlogs but not the beginning , and l am like wow that is my next Camino. I have just come home from the Uk where l hiked/ walked part of the SWCP from Penzance to Fowey then from Fowey to Padstow , then l traveled to the Cotswolds to do the Cotswolds way . I have been asked where to next …….well.. l now have found it . What time of the year did you travel? Dianne from Australia
Hola Efren! me encantan tus videos y este sera mi 4to camino y has sido de mucha ayuda! En que mes hiciste este? Usaste alguna guía para las etapas y alquiler de giles? Gracias por toda la motivación!
Que bien. Te deseo lo mejor. Yo fui a finales de septiembre. Puedes ver las fechas en la descripción de los videos. Planifique las etapas con gronze y luego compre la guía de miam miam dodo en la catedral de Le Puy. En cuanto a transporte de mochilas utilize a la Malle Postale hasta la mitad y luego a transporte Claudine hasta sjpdp. Buen camino.
I find these videos very different than your earlier videos. I miss the hurdles. The feelings you emitted from the wonder , struggles, surprises & the authenticity of Francigena and Caminos. Travel vloggers often learn so much along the way that the risks they take and hurdles they overcome disappear. It is those feelings that make vloggers distinctive.
Hi Efren, thanks for the accommodation break down. I'm going to follow the same route, but I will only go as far as Cahors on the camino. You mentioned booking the gite ahead of time (because of COVID). Will that be necessary in 2023? How much ahead did you book or did you do it a few days in advance? Is it easy to book? You mention the name of the gite but is there a website or did you call ahead? How did you manage that? I would prefer not to book and to go with the flow and trust the camino, but if accommodations are scarce I'll book ahead. I'll watch your other videos for the rest of your journey. Thanks again.
I booked everything a few weeks before I even landed in France. I used gronze.com to get a list of accommodations and the stages. You can download my gps tracks and you will find them there as well. You can also get the miam miam dodo guidebook at the cathedral in le puy. If you speak French I recommend you book a day or two in advance.
@@Walk_with_Efren Thank you very much, Efren. I heard about the miam miam dodo guidebook and I was going to pick one up in Le Puy. I do speak French since I'm in Montreal, QC. It's my second language. I took note of your suggestions. Thanks a million.
Hi Efren! I like your Caminos the best. I would ask you about two questions. First about availability on luggage transportation in the Via apodiense, is it like French Camino. Second about what month have you gone. Thanks for sharing your Camino
Hi Efren…. Thank you so much for sharing your vlog and amazing videos. My friend and I are planning our first pilgrimage beginning in Lyon. Did you use a guidebook in English version for le Puy to Santiago de Campostela? If so, what is the title of the book and author? Thank you - Jerrie
Hola Efren, my husband and I walked the GR65 in May/June 2019. I speak French fluently (born in Quebec). We love to watch your videos. So cool to see the areas with your drone. One thing I get a bit annoyed is the way you pronounce gite...LOL I guess you should have used your google translator to be sure you say it properly in French. Anybody mentioned something about it? I hope you do not get offended by my remark. You will say gite many times during all your videos on the Via Podiensis. So far we have watched until Nasbinals . We watch 1 or 2 videos each night. I have written the story of our Camino ( ON FOOT IN FRANCE- available on Amazon). I like to share my photos as well on FB and in 2023 I will share some videos here on my TH-cam channel. Nothing to compare with your images. I just needed to do it for a personal reason.. just for the same reason I needed to write a book about our journey. Anyway, I want to say that your channel is GREAT and it is wonderful that you can do so much travel. Not only on the Camino routes but other places. Happy New Year to you and your family.
@@Walk_with_Efren thank you so much. Came home from Camino portugues de costa. Told a lot of people about your excellent chanel. I hope it brings some follower
@@Walk_with_Efren That make sence. I have both pairs as well, and the same xero sandals you have too. The Lone Peak 6 are around the corner too I seeing TH-camrs, posting reviews of it now.
No es tan facil y toma mucho tiempo el cual prefiero enfocsrlo en la edicion de los videos lo cual me ocupa todo mi tiempo. Algun día pagaré por el servicio para que una compañía me brinda el servicio.

I should add, I had no idea about that crazy trap door that leads down to the Chemin from the floor of the cathedral!! MAGICAL!
Me neither It took me by surprise.
Isn't that hidden door amazing

Glad you enjoyed it my friend. it is just one of those places that stay with you.

Still editing it. I filmed three days worth of footage 😵
Brilliant day 1! what a special way to start a pilgrimage. Thank you for what you do for those of us unable to do these days.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful surprise to see you starting this Camino, stunning videotography and beautifully shot ... thank you Efren, you made my day .

Awesome Video, thank you for sharing
Your cinematography is extra special in this first episode!
ME encanta la arquitectura de estos lugares, osea la antigua no la contemporánea...

What a wonderful starting point of the camino! I could feel it
Efrén, once again thank you for that; absolutely Magical! Your footage & vlogs really reflect the Camino for me! ¡
Great videography,crisp clear and interesting.
Holy cow this is amazing!
The video footage is outstanding. This series needs to be snapped up by the BBC!
Thank you

Saludos Efrén,
Buen vídeo como siempre, cuantos días desde Le Puy hasta JPDP?
Gracias
Muchas gracias. Me tomo 29 dias.
Que curioso estilo de esa iglesia en Francia, parece mudéjar, el estilo de los árabes en territorio cristiano en España.

Travel vloggers often learn so much along the way that the risks they take and hurdles they overcome disappear. It is those feelings that make vloggers distinctive.
Things change with experience. I put myself in tough situations because of my inexperience in the early days.
Can you please add the date when this was filmed. This would help us understand temperature/conditions during that time frame. Great video once again

@@lenoxlenox9447 do you mean the way English people pronounce it ? alors tu parles francais?

It is so intoxicating to do the Camino but I still have to convince my boss you know who 😂

Simplemente porqué no hay suficientes horas en el día. Me la paso editando estos videos desde que me levanto hasta que me acuesto a dormir
