Walk on the Saint-James way one day, walk forever?

Updated: Jul 3, 2021



The Saint-James way is an eternal beginning. It has become for many people a therapeutic rite, an annual meeting not to be missed for the world.


For some, this path repeats itself over and over again. More than a remedy, it becomes for some a real addiction, for those who could be qualified as "camino-dependent".


Indeed, it is not uncommon to see pilgrims traveling the same routes several times from one year to the next to find there the same state of plenitude and return to nature, this fraternal atmosphere and sharing that the 'we do not find anything else.


A single departure will probably not be enough for your personal count. It is good to leave often to always feel the beneficial effects of this journey. As in any good therapy, there must be continuous and prolonged follow-up.



If I had to summarize the reasons that lead me to return to the Camino de Santiago every year, I would simply say that I am not walking on the Camino de Santiago to escape life, but so that life does not escape me. not.


It's true, the best way is to prove to yourself how free you are, but there is no happiness without freedom, nor freedom without courage. We must be ready to give up along the way, the life that has been imagined for you, in order to live the life that awaits us here and now.



In this infinite quest for the other shore, Santiago-Therapy is one door among many others.

The road to Saint Jacques de Compostela is the only trip whose expense will make you richer. All you need to do is take the first step ...
