My Camino Shell Tattoo

October 20, 2016

Facebook, in its infinite wisdom and memory, reminded me last week that it’s already been “one year ago today” that I came home with my very first tattoo: my Camino shell. … More My Camino Shell Tattoo

Well, technically I stopped by my local bookstore on a sunny day to get a head start on next week's #indiebookstoreday and buy a bunch of new reads, but signing was definitely a perk. Thanks, Phinney Books, for the welcome (and the recommendations)!! - - #Repost @phinneybooks ・・・ Beth Jusino stopped by on a sunny day to sign our stack of copies of Walking to the End of the World! @bethjusino @mtnbooks #caminodesantiago - - #authorsofinstagram #booksigning #indiebookstore #booksbooksbooks #phinneyridge #phinneywood #shoplocal #readlocal #walkingtotheendoftheworld #weekendhighlights #saturdayvibes #bookshopping

A not-so-subtle reminder on my walk to work. - - #chill #greenwood #phinneywood #onmywalk #slowdown #fridaymotivation #spring #streetart #Seattle #takeawalk

When we first set out to walk 1000 miles of the Camino de Santiago, I knew in theory we would need rest days along the way. I understood that a person can’t—well, shouldn’t—walk every day for three months without stopping to re-fuel now and then. I’d read all the books and blogs, and knew that it was common to stop and spend a day letting muscles heal and minds rest. - But then, when we started, I discovered (again) that my book knowledge didn’t always translate well into practice. I didn't know how to stop. I wrote about that experience, and how this magical gite in Lauzerte, France, set in a field of safflowers, finally taught me how to rest. The link, as always, is in the bio. - Three years later, I'm thinking again about the importance of slowing down, and how knowing that it's important isn't the same as actively choosing to stop for a while. Maybe it's time to go back to France, and to these golden fields? - - #caminodesantiago #travelblog #slowtravel #slowdown #France #Compostelle #viapodiensis #restday #exploretheworld #selfcare #thruhiker #StJamesWay #throwbackthursday #traveltips #traveldeeper #linkinbio #newblogpost #gite

Why yes, I am actually on all of these hikes and adventures I talk about. :) - Just to prove it, here's a #repost from my friend and hiking buddy @christophermatthias, who turned the camera back on me last weekend. I'm almost always the one taking the pictures, but every now and then it's nice to see myself as a part of the world around me. And this misty, rainy, shockingly green climb up to Heybrook Lookout was a pretty great corner of the World to explore. - - #womenwhohike #womenonadventures #sheexplores #ourpnw #mypnwlife #walkintherain #exploretheworld #keepclimbing #mybodytookmehere #hiking #firelookout #hikingadventures #takeahike #spring #heybrooklookout #washingtonexplored #shehikes #hikersofinstagram

Last weekend's walk in the woods was a short but steep climb to Heybrook Lookout, one of the lower altitude fire lookouts in Washington State. Sheltered from the rain by towering pines and drooping moss, surrounded by brilliant spring greens and gentle light, it was less a workout and more a journey through fairyland. (And then a climb up 86 wet wooden steps to a viewing platform that was plenty sturdy, but high enough to be gut-clenching for those of us who aren't so fond of heights.) - - This is just the first of the hikes I plan to take this summer from Amber Casali's lovely "Hiking Washington's Fire Lookouts" (pubbed by @mtnbooks ). As the snow melts, we'll start to climb higher. - - - #weekendhike #pnwwonderland #ourpnw #mypnwlife #hikepnw #firelookout #heybrooklookout #keepclimbing #springgreen #hiketheworld #keepwalking #walkinthewoods #daytrip #explorewashington #sundayfunday #optoutside #hikingadventures #hikinglife #hikingtrails #guidebook #spring #cascademountains #washingtonexplored #liveyouradventure

I can't look away from the heartbreaking videos coming from Paris this morning as Notre Dame burns. We were here less than a year ago, on a spring morning not so different from this one. I was jetlagged, overwhelmed by crowds, and still instantly in love with these arches and windows. #Paris #notredame
