Buen Camino Talks meets Carlos! 🇪🇸
It was a true honor to encounter Carlos, a person of incredible strength who embodies the genuine spirit of the Camino. After a work injury prevented him from walking, he didn’t give up—he took to his bike instead! We met after he had cycled over 3,000 km along the Via de la Plata, in the magical town of Fuenterroble de Salvatierra.
Carlos shared a profound truth: on the Camino, you cannot fool yourself. People walk to find their inner selves. He dedicates his journey to his grandmother, who taught him how to embroider, sew, cook, and be a true family man. In the end, he leaves us with a beautiful reflection and sums up what the Camino means to him in just three words. An encounter that goes straight to the soul. 💛✨
Carlos, you are incredible! Thank you for being the pilgrim you are and for continuing to move us all with your words! 🙏 Buen Camino!
