  • Everyday on the Camino de Santiago is different yet there seems to be a routine I've gotten myself into each day; wake up early so I miss the heat of the day, prep my feet (the MOSt important thing), brush my teeth, pack, then hit the road. It seems so simple - the only thing I have to do is walk. Yet it never really is. Each day brings a lesson and something completely new...

    Walking across Spain alone has been one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Everyday is different yet the routine always seems to be same. And yet everyday I find myself receiving a lesson or teaching about myself or life. I trust this will give you a peak into all the little things that go into this journey across Spain on the Camino de Santiago! BUEN CAMINO!

    I love your positivity, Crystal and your approach to each day and the challenge of the Camino. You adapt and overcome, persevere where others may have stopped and inspire others watching to follow your example. You mention “doing hard things” and I thought of your President, JFK, when he announced the moon project “We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard….”.

    I said last video u need to find lambswool for padding in between the toes lol. I know you'll probably never find it but I suffered wit a bunion for years because I feared surgury my Dr suggested lambswool and I would weave a strand of it daily between my toes it's amazing the feel of it in your toes and wicks the moisture away that causes the blisters..once I had surgery I didn't need it ..my toes didn't cross but were very close together

      Lol valid question! I trap full time and this is not my only trip overseas. I have a lot of camera gear to carry plus other items. Pilgrims have the option to have luggage transport each day. I used Pilbeo and loved them. An extra $7 a day and totally a must for me as a content creator/traveler.

    Saying this newly recovered from a 2.5 year long burnout from owning a biz for 10 years, and with so much caring, girl, you seem worn out and like you need some relaxing healing stress free time, just an objective observation maybe I’m totally wrong! 💜 🌈

    • @vanhallaadventures
      @vanhallaadventures  Рік тому

      Well there’s no stress on the camino. I went from an almost-deadly salmonella infection to this and never recovered. I made that decision knowing I might still be very fatigued when walking. But healing isn’t always about relaxing so for me this is the healing - to do the hard thing and not give in just because it’s difficult physically. I appreciate the concern though ❤️

  • @johnbutler8998

    Not sure if you're on the trail right now - if you haven't already, try and track down some merino wool socks at one of the bigger towns/cities. They're good for reducing foot moisture which helps to manage blisters. Thanks for sharing your videos, enjoying following your journey :)

  • @upcycledcopycat8389

    Enjoy watching your journey. All those blisters foot issues .. Yikes. I hike and walk alot but I also take large doses of vitamin C most of my adult life. And never have blisters or foot issues. I take 1000 once in the a.m. another in the evening. And sometimes take a chewable before bed. I wonder if the "skin vitamin" helps for that. I NEVER get blisters and when I'm walking or hiking it's usually around 15-20K. Admittedly it's not every day like your adventure. But after you getting enough vitC???

    • @vanhallaadventures
      @vanhallaadventures  2 роки тому +1

      Yes I do fine walking this amount (and much much higher gains too) but the camino is notorious for things like this. I never have issues at home but it’s the daily walking, heat, and walking on concrete that does it.

    Crystal, perhaps I’ve missed this, though why are you not wearing much better footwear for this journey?

    • @vanhallaadventures
      @vanhallaadventures  2 роки тому +1

      Most people only wear trainers or sandals. Boots are a no-no due to heat. Since I’ve learned my lesson of what footwear is right for me I ended up purchasing wide toe box shoes and my feet were fine (for the most part). It just took a lot of trial and error. I hike a lot in the USA but this trail is sooo different. My usual trainers and boots just didn’t work.
      Oh and I also had these breathable boots on earlier but they injured my ankle so I can’t have anything press against my ankle so most trainers I tried on earlier wouldn’t work :-( it’s been a journey for my feet for sure.
