Dear Alex and Jason and my fellow pilgrims, I am back in the United States, and the blisters are healing. I think Alex said that you may find that the Camino will continue to impact you after you return, and so it has been true for me. I realized a few days after I finished, that it was actually a watershed experience for me. There was my life before I walked the Camino, and now since May 31, my life since. I think I am now a “caminoista”, not to be confused with a “communista”. I have returned with a sense of peace that I did not have before, with a change in perspective. I don’t know that I expected such profound changes from 9 days of hard walking, but so it has been. I was so glad that all of you were on this journey with me. And Jason and Alex, there is no way I could have completed the walk without you two. And that is one of the lessons of the Camino as well. Thank you, or as Alex likes to say, muchas gracias,
Erica
