In those first few days of walking, I had also fallen in love with being on Camino. I loved the meditative walking and chatting with myself. I loved being outside all day and the peaceful rhythm of Camino life. I loved traveling by foot through farms and vineyards and little towns. I loved meeting other pilgrims, sharing tips and stories on the trail or over a communal dinner. I even loved carrying my pack, washing my undies, and walking when it rained.
