I must admit I am getting nervous about a number of things.  For starters, I am determined to get around Paris the first day via public transportation, but I am fearful of not understanding connections unless directions are given in ballet terms.  I am scared of stray dogs on the trail, and lightening, and food poisoning.  I am worried that I will get lost, fall off a cliff in the fog, be unable to walk because of my bad foot, and not have enough money.  Mostly, I am just scared I don’t have enough in me to really do this thing.

    Buen Camino!  Welcome to Soul Stride, a chronicle of the pilgrimage I took by foot, July 15th to August 24th, from Saint Jean Pied de Port, France to Santiago de Compostela, Spain where the Apostle James' bones are believed to be interred.  Kindly read these posts from the bottom of the site up, as they chronologize the adventure, with the very first entry (June 7 letter to my Mom) explaining my motivation for making the journey and providing the logistics.  Thank you so much for sharing my interest in the Way of Saint James and for supporting my life-changing voyage!  God speed!  Ultreia!
