P.S. I am aware this video has a couple of glitches. Believe me, I tried everything to fix them but Adobe is not always perfect. I edited this video on my phone in a tiny village in northern Portugal. The internet and phone capacities aren’t perfect so you have to forgive me for this imperfect video. I know you’ll understand 🥰
"I felt very lost for a second..." Life Lessons... but then you found your footing again! Also, I love how as you begin your camino that you found two different kinds of sour plum trees that reminded you of home! (good omen!).
How the Camino serves is crazy.. the moment you get so anxious and feel lost you find plums from home and directly feel home again! Coincidentally? I don’t think so ❤
Amazing! I'm starting the Camino (this same one) in 10 days. Low key freaking out, and excited for the experience. Good luck in the rest of your time walking and exploring!
The road in the end taking the path the sun had taken, into the western sea, and the moon rising behind you as you stood where ground turned to ocean: no way to your future now but the way your shadow could take, walking before you across water, going where shadows go, no way to make sense of a world that wouldn’t let you pass except to call an end to the way you had come, to take out each frayed letter you had brought and light their illumined corners; and to read them as they drifted on the western light; to empty your bags; to sort this and to leave that; to promise what you needed to promise all along, and to abandon the shoes that had brought you here right at the water’s edge, not because you had given up but because now, you would find a different way to tread, and because, through it all, part of you would still walk on, no matter how, over the waves. Finisterre by David Whyte. He dedicated this poem to his daughter who took the Finisterre route 😃 I wish you all the blessings on your walk to the future ❤️
Very well done! Loved the flowers, the narration and your smiles:) My daughter is starting Camino Frances next week- you remind me a lot of her:) best of luck and we will follow your journey !
I'm glad your anxiety is going. I've been dreaming of doing the camino for years now but life keeps getting in the way. Hopefully soon. I'll be following your travels and look forward to more videos. Good job.
Hola Diana, I will be doing my Camino in Spain in September. I just watched your first day. I look forward to seeing your journey unfold. I live in West Virginia. Bless your steps 👣
I did the Caminio across from France in 2015. It was the best but hard. I have short legs so it took me 56 days to do 800 km. But the comradeship and help I received along the way was magical. Try not to make mistakes, but they will come. Take them as part of the adventure, it is part of living. Most important get back in touch with your senses. Buen Caminio.
Thanks David! I loved your videos by the way, I watched all your camino videos before starting this journey (true story). There’s one where you are talking about the gear and stuff and you say something about the stories you hear from people and that hooked me, haha. And you were absolutely right!
Mi Querida Diana, I have just come across your channel and I am so glad for it! Saw your travel plans and immediately subscribed!! Back in 2016, my daughter and I did the Camino Frances. Have been talking about doing this part of the Camino…now I have the chance to see it through your eyes. Hoping to see it and experience it with my daughter very soon…🙏🏼You are a brave and awesome person🥰😘. Buen Camino!💞🤗🤗
Seeing your anxiety gradually reducing and you becoming more and more excited as you enter the beginning phase of the "Camino" journey, makes me so happy and proud of you girl! I'm sure this will be one of your most wonderful trips, as your openness to new adventures is only expending lol... love you so much! and can't wait to see Camino!
I really enjoyed your video. I was wondering how confusing it was to leave Porto but it looked like you handled it well. The first day looks like the most confusing part. I am walking in late August. Thanks for your great video.
Pilgrim on santiago! That’s what i really want to do in my life🥺 due to many reasons, i just better be happy with your video now, but soon after i definitely challenge like you! Whatever reasons or inspirations get started your hard journey(i haven’t watched yet your previous video sorry but i will!) hope you safe!
Great first day!!! Nice video BTW. You look very comfortable on the trail. Our 500 miles Camino start this June and we’re pretty excited. Hope to make it to Santiago. Buen Camino!!! 👍🥾
Hi David! My bag was probably 8 kilos minus food and water. I recommend to go as light and humanly possible. Only pack essentials, some blister bandaids and sunscreen
@@davidwan7420 no worries David! So in Portugal no, I didn’t need sleeping a bag but in Spain there are few government owned public Albergues, it’s super cheap (€6/8) but they don’t provide blankets. If you want to stay there, you’ll need a sleeping bag.
ჰაი დიანა, ახლახანს აღმოგაჩინე და კარგი იქნება ცოტას თუ მოგვიყვები რას საქმიანობდი მოგზაურობამდე,ამერიკაში როგორ/რატომ აღმოჩნდი. 👉საინტერესო ვიდეოებია ნამდვილად.წარმატებები🙌👍
Honestly, I don't know what to say. I just thought you would travel some peaceful cities as you did in Mexico. It's way beyond my imagination. Why you are starting this reckless journey? That was my first thought out of concern for you. But, there must be some reason why you have to do this. And, I really hope you can find answers or something you are longing for. Take really really good care of yourself. Tighten the bag around your waist and chest. Take good rest if you feel any physical pain on your body. GOOD LUCK!!!
This is such a sweet comment! Thanks so much for caring for me! It is going to be all good, Portugal is a very, very safe place ❤️🥹 again, thanks for thinking about my safety and you take care too!
So impressed with your photography. I have watched many Camino vlogs and yours is very nicely done. Are you a film student or a graphic artist? Thank you, and Buen Camino.
@@dianawanderlust I want to document my journey, too. I am 58 years old and am walking to celebrate my recent 100 pound weight loss. Can you give me some technical advice on these questions: 1. Are you using a selfie-stick? If so, can you tell me which one or what features to look for? 2. How did you get those wonderful shots of you walking from the side and the back view? I really want to be able to do that, too. Thank you for any advice you can give in these questions.
Loved your first day. This will be my camino in late August and I'm feeling excited but know I will also be anxious when the day finally comes. Did you train leading up to your camino by long walks at home?
Carol, good luck with your Camino! Yes I absolutely did, I jogged and walked a lot, still got some blisters on my feet, I’d recommend bringing some blister medicine (vaseline for example).
Hey Andya! Yes, I feel that too! I’m trying to do a Camino Reflection video by Sunday and the thoughts are just not coming in yet. Which Camino did you do?
when you looked at whether your bed was clean i was like.. i never want to meet this person in real life... why not take a taxi for your camino.. its even more comfort :-D
I’m sure you never had bedbugs and you don’t know the struggle lol 😏 chances of us meeting are extremely low so I think you’re safe 😅 thanks for watching

Which route?
@@dianawanderlust French way!
@@powe135 that’s impressive! Hope you enjoyed it!

So sweet smile 🥰
So brave of you and looking forward to watching the rest of your journey!!!

Buen Camino, Jahdiel! Stay at Casa de Carolina and Albergue Casa do Sardão if you have a chance! Both really beautiful places
First stamp!!! Big moment ❤️ so excited to see the happiness come back to your face..and excited for what’s to come 🥹 respect the bed bug check 👏🏼
Thanks love! I’m sure Rob would respect that too 😂😂😂
The road in the end taking the path the sun had taken,
into the western sea, and the moon rising behind you
as you stood where ground turned to ocean: no way
to your future now but the way your shadow could take,
walking before you across water, going where shadows go,
no way to make sense of a world that wouldn’t let you pass
except to call an end to the way you had come,
to take out each frayed letter you had brought
and light their illumined corners; and to read
them as they drifted on the western light;
to empty your bags; to sort this and to leave that;
to promise what you needed to promise all along,
and to abandon the shoes that had brought you here
right at the water’s edge, not because you had given up
but because now, you would find a different way to tread,
and because, through it all, part of you would still walk on,
no matter how, over the waves.

Kevin! Buen Camino! I’ll love it ❤️
This is very interesting, most people go from France to Spain, so it is fun to see a different way.
More and more routes to Santiago are becoming popular now. There’s like at least 10 places you can start walking from.
Pilgrim on santiago!

Is camino easy or difficuly? is it safe or not? How much money you need? Is there a fixed path, do you have to reach hostel before dark?
A lot of questions! I’ll make a wrap-up video after I finish the whole road! So far it’s been great and I spend €30-50 a day
I just finished the Camino Portuguese central route a week ago. It's fun watching someone else's journey! Curious.. are you from France? 🇫🇷
