Our Meseta Anniversary

June 6, 2016

Eric and I spent our 14th wedding anniversary in the sleepy, almost eerily deserted town of Bercianos del Real Camino, deep in the heart of the Meseta. … More Our Meseta Anniversary

Tarta de Santiago: The (Delicious) Cake of Santiago

March 6, 2016

A Santiago cake? Yes, please. It was delicious. Simple and nutty, not too sweet. And when I came home, I had to figure out how to make it. … More Tarta de Santiago: The (Delicious) Cake of Santiago

"Time sometimes flies like a bird, sometimes crawls like a snail; but a man is happiest when he does not even notice whether it passes swiftly or slowly." - Ivan Turgenev, Russian novelist - - Have you ever slowed down enough to watch a snail eat a dandelion? I did, not so long ago, on a stretch of misty road in northern Spain. But since then, life has been speeding up. The pace of releasing and promoting a book (ironically about the importance of slowing down), plus a couple of fantastic professional opportunities, plus family and the logistics of daily urban life, have left me swooping around frantically with the birds for the past few months. It's time to re-focus and re-discover a little of my Camino pace. - - #caminodesantiago #caminodelnorte #tbt #throwbackthursday #snail #slowlife #stopandwatch #sloweating #slowdown #backpackingeurope #womenwhotravel #thursdaythoughts #traveldeeply #noticethelittlethings #wayofstjames #hikingadventures #walkmoreseemore #jakobsweg #naturewalk #caminolife

Sitting in an airport hotel in Los Angeles, reading the first chapter of a novel set in the New Jersey town where I went to elementary and high school, waiting for it to be time to go home to Seattle. - - - #amreading #whataweek #vineland #southjersey #womenwhoread #readersofinstagram #ebook #bookbuzz #barbarakingsolver #ontheroad #newfiction #unsheltered #homesick #igetaround

It's the last Walking to the End of the World presentation for 2018! Eric and I will be at the Woodinville Library this Sunday for an afternoon talk, slide show, and book reading. Come learn about the #CaminodeSantiago in France and Spain, and what it means to be a 21st century person on an 11th century trail. - It's a unique chance to get an autographed book for that special person on your list! - See you there? - - #caminochurch #kingcounty #booktour #kcls #walkingtotheendoftheworld #pilgrimage #talesfromthetrail #authorsofinstagram #Woodinville #travelfrance #travelspain🇪🇸 #seattleauthor #readlocal #giftideas #nonfiction #traveltalktours

#throwbackthursday to two months ago, when I had the chance to join this incredibly smart, curious group of people on stage at @ignitesea 37. I was there, of course, to talk about the #CaminodeSantiago. They were there to talk about Shakespeare and Instant Pots, climate change and single parenting, global peacekeeping and spelunking. That 5-minute talk was the scariest thing I've ever done on stage, and I couldn't have done it without these folks cheering me on. - Ignite Seattle is now open for speaker submissions for their next event in Feb 2019. If you're in the Pacific Northwest and you've got a story, an idea, or a passion to share, check them out. - - - #tbt #Seattle #Ignite #publicspeaking #speakup #makeitquick #ignitetalks #dowhatscaresyou #bigideas #events #thursdaythoughts #seattlelife #speakyourmind #callforsubmissions

25 kilometers past the Spanish city of Leon, pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago find themselves approaching a bridge. This isn’t unusual by itself – the Camino Francés is full of bridges. - The 13th-century stone bridge of Hospital de Órbigo is memorable, though. It's 200 meters long and boasts 20 arches, which mostly rest on bare ground now that a dam blocks much of the Orbigo River, but the bridge survives because of the Camino-worthy legend of the lovesick knight Don Suero de Quiñones. I dug up as much as I could about him and just posted the story on my blog. (Link in bio.) - In honor of the great knight, if you are passing through Hospital de Orbigo on a pilgrimage of your own, may I suggest that you gallop (Monty Python style) across the bridge, rather than plodding across? 🐎🐎🐎 - - #caminodesantiago #caminofrances #bridgesofSpain #bridgesofInstagram #pilgrimage #travelspain #jousting #womenwhotravel #caminodesantiagopage #worldtravelpic #travelblogger #stjamesway #peregrino #traveltuesday #keepwalking #historybuff #españa #medieval #history #greatstory #jakobsweg #chemindesaintjacques

With the holiday break over, I'm excited to launch a new speaking series this week with fellow @mtnbooks author Cassandra Overby / @exploreonfoot. We're pairing up at local @rei stores to bring you Discovering Europe on Foot: How to Unplug and Explore at a Human Pace. 🌄 We'll talk about the #CaminodeSantiago, of course, but also how to explore other corners of a continent full of history, scenery, and great wine. 🍷 See you there? - #womenwhohike #womenwhotravel #exploreonfoot #Seattle #Lynnwood #traveltalktours #booktour #authorsofinstagram #booksofinstagram #optoutside #walkingtotheendoftheworld #caminofrances #chemindupuy #womenwhoexplore #womenonadventures #talesfromthetrail
