Camino de Santiago in 20 Days: My Way on the Way of St. James
PROLOGUEWhile some people plan their Camino de Santiago for years, I had less than two months. Seriously, I didn't know that much about the Camino until I booked my flight and started planning. I certainly didn't think about writing a book until the latter days of my journey. Even then, I wasn't sure. Initially, I felt too shy writing anything about myself, especially regarding personal matters. Since I'm basically a nobody, I thought readers wouldn't care what I had to say. Most of the time, I don't really care what I have to say myself. I started writing this as part reflection of my Camino, and part guidebook with historical notes. As I progressed, it was becoming evident that I was writing a book so large that nobody would be able to lift it, let alone pay a price that would make it economical. It was a mishmash without a clear focus.
