Hi, I’m Nancy,

guide and long-time pilgrim on the Camino Francés.

I am here to help you answer the one question you may be afraid to ask out loud – CAN I REALLY DO THIS??? – with a confident Yes!

Since 2013, I have had the privilege leading 13 small groups on the Camino. Our groups start in Saint Jean Pied de Port in France, and we walk together until Pamplona, the first large city inside Spain.

I know from experience that walking the Camino can be a life-changing experience, and it would be my pleasure and honor to assist you in getting started on your pilgrimage.

It’s like walking the Camino with a friend who already knows the trail but who also stays in the background while you discover it for yourself.

What it’s not . . .

> It’s not an audio-book version of a guidebook

> It’s not a repeat of what you have from other sources.

> It’s not a narrative of sites or a listing of places to stay. 

> It doesn’t replace your guidebook or app; rather it complements them.

> It’s not 30 days of Spanish history lessons or kilometer by kilometer descriptions of the trail.
