In the footsteps of Walking the Camino, Tristan Cook’s lively portrait of modern pilgrims and fellow travelers winding their way on the Camino de Santiago muses on the psychological and spiritual dividends of the 30-day hike. The landscape is beautiful but brutal, the dorms are packed and the bunks are hard. Some find solace in solitude; others discover kinship and community en route. The case of Dane Johansen is remarkable: he embarks on the nearly 600-mile journey carrying his cello on his back with the notion of performing and recording Bach’s Cello Suites in thirty-six churches along the Camino.
Jeannine Sorin started travelling during her summers off when she began her teaching career, but was never satisfied with being just a tourist.When she left teaching in 2014, she chose to begin this new chapter in her life by walking the Camino de Santiago.
