  • When a professor and his co-leader (and wife) take five college students for their semester abroad to walk the 500-mile Camino de Santiago, all find themselves on a personal journey of transformation. The beautiful soundtrack includes songs by Alexi Murdoch, the Weepies, and more.
    This documentary follows the 2017 semester abroad trip, the fourth since 2011 to take place as part of a unique program at Franklin Pierce University in Rindge, New Hampshire, USA.

    Enjoyed this. It reminded me when I left home at 17 to hitchhike alone up to Canada in 1971. Im 70 now. That experience changed me for life. Well done.

      Cruz de Ferro is a spiritual place, not a garbage dump. Please tell me you did not throw your bottle of nail polish out in this sacred place.

    Omg….I LOVE this. 100% love it. I have been hooked on watching Camino RUclips’s since I found out about it last year. I saw a documentary on the Camino (on an Emirates flight last year) and I knew I had to do it too. I can’t walk the Camino until my daughter graduates in 2025 but I am well on my way to planning. After watching perhaps hundreds of these RUclips’s over the past year I have to say that yours is in my top 3. It was such a raw and honest account of the journey (as I imagine it.). Everyone is so transparent and open. A great number of these videos online show the upbeat side and the pilgrims accomplishments. But they choose to pretend the struggles and emotional aren’t a part of their journey. They don’t keep it real. Yours is as imagine it will be. Good days, not so good days, emotions, physical challenges and all of the things the Camino brings. I wish there were more like this. And if these young people are an indication of the new emerging adults, then I feel very hopeful for the future of humanity. They are all so inspiring. Each and every one of them. Thank you for taking the time to share your story with us. It has made a difference to me and I’m sure a lot of others as well. ❤❤❤

    I hear so many people say that they have learned not to worry about the little things or even the big things. Then they return home to friends and family, that have not realized their own shortcomings or how they contribute to the unhappiness of others. Many have cut ties with people that they come to realize drain their spirit. It's different for everyone. I have not done this journey, but am here to get inspired, and hoping I will do this journey soon.

I intend to cycle another 1/3 and then hike, everyone should find their own Camimo, and whatever way you decide is the right way. 🙌

    Thank you for creating and sharing this wonderful video. At the end, I hope the students appreciated the amount of time you both took away from your family and friends to help them appreciate the gift of life. I plan to keep walking Caminos until I am a lot older, like your friend Martha, and I cried with you Laurie when you shared the news of her passing. I've learnt from past Caminos that your life can be simpler if you allow it to be and don't criticise others who haven't had that realisation yet. 😀Also the soundtrack was beautiful.

    About the fear packing, well some of it its true. Funny things at least for me its not a "fear", its more of my "home" or personal items i feel comfortobable with and that protects me from actually getting "fears" that have happen to me. For example, my walking poles against pain or fatuigue, my sock layering system or shoes against blisters, or electrolytes against getting dizzy. I am talking on experience! So on my last camino i actually found out that, ill rather carry one more! and for example more underwear to avoid go commando like I did couple of days due to wet clothing 😂

    Thanks for this film. I really enjoyed it. I'm newly obsessed with 'the camino' and plan to start this year. How I wish I had done it years ago before it got so busy!! I think I will need to forego the best weather in order not to feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of pilgrims. Since I carry some joint issues I will do the Portuguese route (just Oporto to Santiago) and the Camino Ingles this year - but at separate time. Then see if the Frances feels like a possibility.

    Doing the Camino in a group is like travelling with a Dictator. You need a rest day at a certain point, but you are not allowed. The schedule! That's why I did my three Caminos alone. Forth one coming this autumn 😊

    I go out for 7 days plus camping at a time with my dog and can do that with a 20 litre pack with a 6.8kg base weight.
    Anyway. Glad you all had this experience here in Spain and thanks for sharing this film.

    Just discovered this walk across part of France and Northern Spain via a RUclips suggestion. Looks so interesting.
    I wonder what time of year this is? Another person, and husband who also posted their walk experience began the walk in later April, if I'm correct, and they saw such a profusion of different types of Spring Flowers, and, at times, cold mornings warming in the afternoons.

    I'm shocked at how much all these kids carry, especially in light of the fact that they don't carry and cook their meals and don't camp. Is it possible to do this and camp most of the way, or are hostels the only reasonable way?

    • @alexpervanoglu7420
      @alexpervanoglu7420 2 месяца назад

      Mortgage possible to camp this yes.
      And you are totally correct, the ammount of kit they are all carrying is insane.
      I can do 7 days out camping with my dog using a 20 litre pack with a base weight of 6.8kg.
      I wouldn't even contemplate doing this hike with a 50 to 60 litre pack on.
      Not needed at all.
