David, you have one of the most ‘Zen’ channels, and you always exude calm and purpose. Thank you for taking us along … it’s always an exquisite ride.
Thanks so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it. You're welcome and buen camino :)
Davd Wen: gracias por mostrar la belleza de Galicia.
🙏🙏🙏
another great camino .. thanks for sharing !
Thanks, buen camino!
Incredibly atmospheric video, I can feel through your summary what an enormous experiece it must be to fulfill a camino. Now I'm really interested to walk a camino myself!
Thanks! And hope you walk one day, buen camino!
emotonial summary
love from vietnam
Thanks from Amsterdam =)
Congratulations!
You not only presented your experience so genuinely that gave me goosebumps, but I saw you are also a truly connoisseur of Galician gastronomy, being food such an important part of our culture: empanada, tortilla de Betanzos, polbo á feira, cocido, churrasco, Estrella Galicia, augardente... you got it all! :D
Thanks! Spain (specifically Galicia) has almost become my 3rd home haha (After the US and The Netherlands). I love the food and culture =)
I had followed your Portuguese Camino and was glad to find this. I'm curious about the many Camino routes so this was a treat to check out. Nafdine Walks is another channel to check out various other Caminos. Cheers and adventure on!
Thanks for the kind words and for watching =) I really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the Camino Ingles. And thanks for the recommendation, I've seen a bunch of her walks-inspiring too!
I am already thinking about another camino next year =)
Cheers and buen camino
David
Beautiful video, amazing scenery and the food looks great too!
Thanks John! It is amazing indeed
David, you even inspire me to walk the camino. I will pray more to make my dream comes true.
Thanks, I pray that your dreams will come true! Buen camino
Your videos of the Camino de Santiago are very good, I am Spanish, I have done the Camino several times, keep it up my friend, greetings.
Thanks =) Walking another one in April...Via de la Plata (parts of it). Buen camino!
Enjoy it friend, I will do part of the northern route from Ribadeo to Santiago. good way.
Thnks David. Buen Camino !!!
Thanks Reed, buen camino to you too!
Excellent and sensitive, David. Solid stuff.
This will be my next choice, for sure. Bom Caminho, dear pilgrim.
You're welcome and thanks for the kind words. Bom caminho!
Hat off to you, you're very good at filming and even better editing. Fantastic vid. Thank you for your work
Thanks! What resonated with you??
@@hidavidwen the perfect combination of music and image, with every shot being considered equally important, not only presenting the best landscapes and meals, but also the people walking, sweating and enjoying a cold beer at the end of a walk.
And not speech in the video is cool, too many videos with too many words, speaking in videos is not necessary if you have a story already in the shots.
Well done David. Congrats on another successful Camino. Will experience Camino Ingles come March 2024. Yes, do the Primitivo next year. Thanks for sharing your journey. Buen Camino!
Thanks a lot! You inspired me to do that camino (hopefully) next! Buen camino =)
Galicia ❤ El camino es mágico.
Me encanta como empiezas el camino desayunando café y croissant y lo terminas desayunando un café y un pincho de tortilla 😊❤
Si si si, el camino es mágico!
What a beautiful walk! And the food looks great in northern Spain as well! Thanks for sharing 👌
You're welcome, it's a beautiful walk! Good food. Good people.A great experience!
La comida es de Galicia.
Thank you for sharing another wonderful Camino video! Your previous videos were inspirational in motivating me to do the Camino Portugues this past April. This video has me craving to go for another walk.
You're welcome and thanks a lot for the kind words. I'm very inspired to hear about your Camino Portugues too :) And I hope you make it to another Camino one day...wherever and whenever it is :) Buen camino!
thanks for not blabbering on throughout the video. very relaxing. leaves lots of space to share in a little bit of the experience and the atmosphere. 🌻
Thanks for watching, appreciate the kind words
I’d love to see you make an entire video in Dutch!
Wonderful video, thank you.
You’re welcome, thanks for watching and buen camino!
Hello David…..enjoyed the “ short “ video. Did you make a longer version??…I did this exact walk Oct.2022….Best time of my life…! Buen Camino
Thanks Paul =) I only made this "short video" for this one. But yes, great time. Buen camino!
Would love to do El Camino
One day! Buen camino!
Hope you will make it one day, buen camino!
Spain is such a beautiful country 🤩🇪🇸
Thanks Chris, it is! I think it's the place I've visited the most in the past few years (besides going back to the US)
@chrisodell2585, Galicia is such a beautiful country. Lo que estás viendo en el vídeo es Galicia. Un saludo desde Santiago de Compostela, capital de Galicia y patrimonio de la humanidad.
Thanks for sharing, inspiring, grateful
Very good representation
Thanks!
Must be a thrill to celebrate a birthday this way - I hope to get a chance to do the same one day!
Thanks! It was a great way to spend a birthday. I hope you do too. Buen camino!
Beautiful video! It literally gave me tears. We did the Portuguese last year from Vigo to Santiago and are doing the Ingles next April. I really want to continue to Finesterre...this may have convinced me! Beautiful!
Another great adventure David - excellent video as always!...thanks for sharing and safe travels
Thanks for watching and for the kind words! You're welcome and buen camino!
Nice walk! Always love Santiago and a coruna done this many times when I was much younger. Things have for sure improved
Thanks and nice to hear you've also walked! It's getting busier (Santiago and the pilgrims)...but still an amazing experience...to just walk, walk, and walk!
Este camino es el de los reyes, príncipes y caballeros, etc ingleses en la Edad Media. Leonor de Aquitania reina de Inglaterra y Ricardo corazón de León y el Príncipe Negro de Inglaterra etc . Muchos lo hicieron.😊
Another magnificent Camino experience, and another magnificent Camino video. Beautifully done, my friend!
Thanks Kirk...will always remember our camino, that started everything. Be on the lookout for a message soon!
I got chicken skin by the end of the vid. Thank you for taking us all with you in this awesome trip!!!.
Hahaha yeah herring is my favorite. Lol "layover food"...first time I've heard that one!
Beautifully put together. Great music too. A shame you had so much rain; but that's all part of it.
Thank you! Yes, the rain is all part of it. I actually enjoyed some of the rainy days...it brought about a different feeling
@nodgeoufc, gracias a la lluvia Galicia es verde y hermosa. Un saludo desde Santiago de Compostela, capital de Galicia y patrimonio de la humanidad.
Another spectacular one❤
Thanks Kenneth!

Thanks and buen camino!
Buen Camino! My solo and first camino walks Portuguese way in May 2023

I did the Portuguese way from Porto last year in April 2022. It was beautiful!

Ti faccio i complimenti per il video, il montaggio e le musiche, hai riportato il mio cuore in Galizia.
In questi giorni ho riflettuto tanto se partire di nuovo per il Cammino. Questa volta da sola, la via inglese. Questo video ha cancellato i miei dubbi; tante emozioni, mi hai convinto a partire.
Posso chiederti se hai registrato con il cellulare o macchina fotografica? Ottima qualità.
Grazie =) Il camino inglese è un percorso molto bello che molte persone non prendono.
Ho filmato con il mio iPhone 14 Pro
@annalisa4876, gracias por tener tu corazón con nosotros los gallegos, con Galicia. Un cordial saludo desde Santiago de Compostela, capital de Galicia y ciudad patrimonio de la humanidad.
Thank you David very much for this splendid video 😍 My only wish is that it would have been longer... How many caminos have you walked? Portuguese in 2022, and now Inglese.
You're welcome Paula and thanks for the kind words!
I've now done:
- Camino Frances (2018, St Jean > Santiago)
- Camino Portugues (2022, Porto > Santiago)
- Camino Ingles (2023, Ferrol > Santiago)
I want to do the Camino Primitivo next! (Maybe next year)
Hi is there a bus from Santiago Compostela to the Fenestire ? thanks you know the schedule thanks
Yes, there are quite a few buses. Check out www.monbus.es/en
Great camino! How can I train to walk The Camino? I have a heel spur that bothers me frequently but I don’t want this to deter my wishes and goals.
Thanks! Hm, I am not a medical expert...but I cycle a lot here in the Netherlands...and I walk a lot in general. So I'm training every day in a way.
But I find the best training is just staying active-whatever that means for you. And lots of walking...at your own pace and adding smaller distances each time...and then eventually taking your backpack with you. Baby steps and you'll get there!
We're doing the 'English' way in March. Can you recommend where to stay for the night. Thanks David
Lovely scenery on the camino Ingles.
Did you bring a tripod or selfie stick to make the video?
Thanks, it is beautiful! I brought a selfie stick...I used to bring my DSLR camera + tripod...but I stopped doing that because it was too heavy. Smartphone camera is enough...which is what I used to film this
How is the English path, due to injury issues I'm going to do this one, is it nice? Thank you David. A big hug.
Beautiful path! Less people lots of forest
Just wow! Now I'm completely inspired to do it ✨️
=) Glad to hear, it's a beautiful camino. I hope you get to do it (whenever that is)-buen camino!
ultreia
Hi David, very nice video!
Could you add a list of the background music, please?
Thanks! Hm, it may already be there automatically on UA-cam's description?
Sorry, no. 🙁The description (I can see…)only lists stages, locations, used gear and links to your other videos.
我也在努力学英语，感受不一样的生活与世界，你真棒👍🙋♂
谢谢, 希望有一天你能实现这个梦想! 🙏
@@hidavidwen 谢谢你的鼓励！每当失去信心我就时常看看你的节目，你真棒👍让我坚持✊
加油!!
What did you think of the route itself? I'm trying to decide which 'Camino' route to do and this Camino Ingles is the shortest of the bunch (easier for me to get this kind of time of work). But is the route itself filled with lots to see? Vistas etc etc?
Thanks for a wonderful video btw.
It’s a quiet route with lots of forests, I enjoyed it. Go if you want more peace
What is this? How long were you gone? Did you take care of your replacement? Were you reachable during all that frivolity? You know the company has goals and deliverables!🤣
Hope you had a great time!
It's the Camino de Santiago (a pilgrimage)! I've done several of these now ever since moving to the Netherlands (nice thing is Spain is so easily accessible!)
Haha, I was only gone for 10 days. Actually, everyone is gone on vacation right now (summer holidays) so all good! But yes, I made sure I got everything done before leaving!
@@hidavidwen The fact that you actually answered those questions tells me you haven't been here long enough. I'm glad you're taking care of yourself. Enjoy our work/life balance!
With all that walking, Dave is probably down to 2% body fat and 8-pack ready. 🏃
Hahahaha, I was quite fit when I got back. BUT...I don't know about 8-pack ready...because I did quite a bit of eating and drinking Spanish wine too😁
You've don it. Been to the end of the world. Never gave it enough priority myself.
Thanks! Yes, got to the end of the world!
way too much pavement, not so great!
Thanks for sharing…it’s not bad at all
