I just returned from my Camino Francés. I wanted to post this video while things are still fresh in my mind. I don’t claim to be an expert in anything or know much, but I did learn a lot on this 500 mile trek.

In this video I share tips that worked for me, gear I used, helpful information for packing, from head to toe. This is what worked for me, what didn’t work good, and what I would have done different. I hope it helps you in some way on your pilgrimage. Much love Jeanee - Alaskan Pilgrim. Much love!
