- Опубликовано: 9 май 2024
- Join me on a journey through the Camino as I navigate the twists and turns of both the path and my own thoughts. Today's stage brings unexpected challenges as my knee acts up, prompting a reevaluation of my approach. Will I stick to the plan or embrace spontaneity? The sights and sounds of nature envelop me, offering a serene backdrop to my contemplations. As I ponder the balance between caution and adventure, the Camino continues to surprise and captivate, revealing new layers of self-discovery with each step. Follow along as I share these intimate reflections, weaving a tapestry of personal growth and exploration through the lens of the Camino.
So, if you're intrigued by this introspective journey, one that blurs the lines between visuals and words, consider subscribing. Join me as I continue to navigate the winding paths of the Camino de Santiago, both physical and metaphorical, and unravel the stories that emerge along the way.
Love it
no knee no camino, that´s right!

I love the natural soundtrack.
it’s beautiful isn’t it. no music 😀
@@storiestellr it really is 👌
I did my first riding tour with spanish horses in 1978, from then on I loved their gentle character and later I eveb breeded them, I think they are the best horses in the world.
i remember!
several other friendly animals, all living together in peace
One of the reasons I watch your videos is due to the LACK of background music, usually blasting away so incongruously. I just have to switch off! It feels like you are going more and more inward on this journey, sharing the processing of your Camino in this narrative way. Still visual but more of a deeply personal inner monologue. Thank you for taking us with you. 🙏
hi Laura, yes that’s exactly it - it’s a very interesting process to say the least. Feedback like yours makes many hours of work after a long walk 🙏
DJ Bird ….. love it! Thinking thinking deciding that is the Camino. Your reflections are refreshingly open and aware. I am also reminded of my pet peeves - rubbish and toilet paper everywhere(wtf), loud groups. Looking forward to hearing more of you Gerrit 🙏
Go gently on that knee & Buen Camino.
it’s the first day that my knee is starting to feel almost normal again… and yeah people *sure love to yack!* 🙄
thx for the original sound of humming birds, it reminds & is very meditative for us. 😇Less eating is good for the mind, most people maybe eat too much...🤣
First days are body-conflicts (like knees). Ur coming in phase 2, where u maybe think of whatever is the purpose off all. Good luck!
yes, the sounds of the birds are a constant, beautiful companion… and this whole thing is very meditative
I liked this part the best so far . This new style feels more real than anything you made before.
Ten days ago I was in Santiago, after walking the Portuguese (and later on to Muxia). This time the camino was also for me totally different than before. There was this dark cloud, not from the many rains, but cause of my sisters sickness. Yesterday she died, 59 years old.
Watching your blogs give my some comfort. Thinking some things over. Accepting being restless.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Lucien 😔… but I’m also glad to read that the Camino (and my videos) were able to provide some measure of comfort… it’s great to hear that it’s not all in vain. It’s great that you were able to walk just recently. What a great time to reflect. I wish you strength during these hard days ☀️
@@storiestellr Thanxs
the new monolog vlog style videos hit different. vey refreshing.
Glad you like them! it’s an experiment
Another couple of Aussies here watch your videos every night-
really? that’s great to hear! 😄🤩
Ih Gerrit, you sound so melancholic in this video. Sending a big virtual hug 🙋🏻♀️
I was… but only kinda, or in a positive way - maybe a mix of ‘in thought’, hungry, and generally.. i dunno, pensive? thanks stephi! 🌸
I love your narrative! Are you there now?
thanks! yes, Najera right now
You're making the videos because you want to share your experience with others!
it is thus
What’s the rush. It, sounds like you are letting go! On the fence-interesting. Buen Camino.
indeed, what’s the rush….
there are HORSES !
You can try doing some backwards walking to fix up your knee. Find a nice and flat, straightaway and see how it feels. It can also be nice to go backwards uphill.
i find downhill much harder with an injured knee...i do backwards also, or zickzacking :)
downhill is definitely harder, but it’s slowly getting better… thanks!
We need a knee health rating everyday. 1 to 100. To follow along.
You are very positive so when you're a little bit negative it's pretty funny. 70s trash disco!
😂😂 when I hate, i HATE 🤣🤣😇
@@storiestellr you've built up so much positivity equity that you're definitely allowed to be annoyed once in a while.
Do you carry a laptop in your backpack since you’re vlogging?
believe it or not but i do it all on iPhone 😄
So your sense of music affects whether you eat breakfast or not? I'm sorry but... WTF???
have you heard the music at that place ? yes, it does. Also it was a generally horrible ‘camino tourism ya!’ kind of place
@@storiestellr so much modern "music" is, in my opinion, a form of pollution. I would never sit somewhere where the soundtrack was offensive.
Absolutely, it would affect where I eat.
