My best friend and I walked the Camino almost 8 years ago. The part I loved the most was how simple life became, nothing to do but wake up and walk for most of the day. A great contrast to the messy busy day to day lives that we normally live and to this day we both say it was one of the happiest times of our lives.

Excellent musings Alia, thanks.

Sometimes I think it's just the moving that counts. We seem so deeply migratory, following the seasons, the herds, the ripening, forever drawn towards new horizons. Then the city came and enclosed our souls leaving us with an un-sated yearning that's quelled only by putting one foot in front of the other and heading towards...who knows, who cares :)
