The first sight of the ocean reminded me of when I was growing up in Malaysia and the excitement that would fill us at a similar sight. Once again, Nadine, your delight shines through and is infectious. Cheers and adventure on.
When I was a kid my family would do a summer vacation at the beach down in North Carolina (on the east coast of the US), and every single year I would be on the lookout for the first glimpse of the ocean. It made me happy then, it makes me happy now!
Hice el camino en el año 99, ya mas de 20 años, quiero antes de tiempo, volver a hacerlo, soy Chilena y tengo orgullosamente mis 2 compostellas, retratar este andar no es fácil, fluyen muchas ideas, historias, vivencias, sentimientos guardados por años, sueños, tristezas, fuerzas y deseo, y lo mejor.., al menos para mi, llegar al Obredoiro.., Misión cumplida.. Llegar a Finis Terri.., quemar el pasado y empezar una nueva existencia. Felicidades!!! 🌹 🌹
I've always wondered what the experience of walking the Camino was like many years ago... I think very different than it is today, and yet, I'm sure some parts are still very much the same! I hope you'll be able to return to walk again :)
Yay, well done Nadine!! Making it to Finisterre and watching the sunset was one of the best evenings of my life. Glad to hear your foot was on the mend (hopefully).
I stayed in Cee back in 2014, when I first walked to Finisterre, and I really loved it there! I think it's a great place to stop if you want to split the walk (Santiago to Finisterre) into 4 stages
Great video as usual. The Romans used to travel all the way to Finisterre, the end of their known world, just to watch the sunset. Some said they could hear the sun fizzling as it dipped under the sea.
My day three to Finisterra was just over a month ago and it rained the entire day but I still enjoyed it. It was also very foggy so it’s nice to see what I missed.😂
Nadine--Gorgeous ending to the journey--at least this ending so far? I have always gone back and forth over if I want to continue the walk out to Finisterre after I arrive in Santiago, but I think this convinces me I should keep going for a few more days.
I do think a lot of pilgrims feel finished when they reach Santiago, but personally, I really love continuing on to the coast! It's a very nice walk and much quieter than the last stretch into Santiago.
Next Time for my second camino ( I will do the camino ingles) I want to walk to finisterrae and muxia too. This time I had tallonitis for the last 4 days in both feet and still struggling with tendinitis on my right foot ( after 2 weeks) so it was impossibile for me to keep walking as I was in so much pain ! You were very strong to keep going!!
I think you'll really love the walk to Finisterre and Muxia (I haven't walked the Camino Ingles yet, but the two together sound like a really nice Camino!) And sometimes it is the best and smartest thing to stop when the body is experiencing pain. I really wasn't sure what I was going to do when my foot first started really hurting, but in the end it was okay! I feel really lucky and am so grateful that I could keep going :)
Thank you so much for sharing your walk. Like you, my wife and I walked the Camino Frances in 2014 and that was the start for us.
Yes, another 2014 first Camino!! :)

Stunning 😍 😍 😍

Well done, fabulous walk, fabulous ending, fabulous video 😍
Thank you so much Caroline! (but... the walking's not quite done yet! I feel like I had so many 'endings' on this past summer's Camino, ha!)
What a beautiful day walking. Cee looked interesting too.

Watching the sunset from here is one of my favorite Camino experiences!
Excellent vid, love it
is magic
Beautiful trip.
It was such a stunning day :)
Beautiful walk great memories May 2019. 2nd day 37km Nageria to Logroso was tough
Wow, that was a HUGE day!!
My day three to Finisterra was just over a month ago and it rained the entire day but I still enjoyed it. It was also very foggy so it’s nice to see what I missed.😂
I've always thought that a rainy/foggy day on a particularly great Camino stage is a reason to go back!!

camino ingles, too much pavement-not so great

Love your spirt. keep going never underestimate the power of going for your dreams.
Well done Nadine. Muxia next? How did you get back to Santiago?
Ahh, you'll see in the upcoming videos! :)
I see you don’t have a jacket on. Is the weather pretty warm for November?
I'm catching up on videos from my summer walk- this was in July!
I do regret not at least taking the bus out there.
If you happen to walk another Camino, then there will be another chance!!
Oh, I meant to ask--what was that werewolf-looking statue?
