Camino: Fragile Triumph

In 2017, I walked the Camino de Santiago — 500 miles across Spain with a backpack, a camera, and more questions than answers. This episode of the story pilgrim weaves together the rough videos I filmed along the way, the raw emotions I didn't expect to feel, and the quiet lessons that only a long road can teach. You'll hear about getting lost (more than once), falling ill, the frustrations of a crowded path, and the strange, stubborn hope that kept me moving. You'll also meet Hendrick — an 84-year-old pilgrim walking alone because he said God told him to — a story I have carried with me ever since. This is a threadbare story, patched together with tired feet, quiet moments, and glimpses of something bigger than myself.
