RESCUING A DOG ON MY FIRST DAY OF THE CAMINO (Camino de Santiago daily plog DAY 1: St Jean Pied Du Port to Roncesvalles)

Everyone Is Extraordinary

Walking My Way: DAY 1: St Jean Pied Du Port to Roncesvalles

Welcome to the second plog! A certain dog steals the show today… again bear with as I figure out how to plog this experience, episodes will only get better as I go along :) I'm Ruby, I'm 22 and I live in London. I graduated from Cambridge last year and have been working in TV production since. I'm taking time off work to go on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage across France and Spain (I’m doing the full Camino Frances). I will be walking 800 km as a female solo traveller, completely untrained (in fact with a hip injury). This journey has been a dream of mine since I was 15, when I read The Pilgrimage by Paulo Coelho. I wouldn’t say I’m religious, but I do have some sort of relationship with spirituality, which I am hoping to explore on this trip. Stay tuned for an episode for every day of my journey, which I will be walking for over a month. From the practical, emotional, historical and spiritual, to the deep connections (and blisters) I’m expecting to make, you will hear it all. Buen camino!
