CAMINO DE SANTIAGOEDDIE CHIU

After my father passed away, I saw this move, in which the father finished the Camino for his son, who died in the attempt of walking Camino.

And that is when I decided that on the anniversary ofmy father’s death, I willwalk the Camino to honor him.

I walked on average 30km per day for 28 days, from French border all the way across Spain.

I knew ahead of time that the weather condition was not ideal: it was heavy winter, and one of the worst storms in 50 years covered most of Europe at the time

Nevertheless, I choose to proceed…

On top of the weather, physical obstacles challenged me: blister, cramp, muscle inflammation… but these difficulties do not stop me…

On The Way, I made friends who are from all over the world.

And I saw some of the most spectacular beauties I have ever seen.

100km Mark!

Step by step, I was closer and closer to my destination.

I continued to walk, with faith and determination.

And this is it! Santiago de Compostela!(en.wikipedia.org)

I took the risk and step into the unknown with courage, and the result is fruitful yet invaluable. I had not only overcame the challenge of the nature but also confronted my own fear and other emotional weakness. During the one month period, I had gained a deeper insight of myself in terms of who I really am and what my limits are.

These experiences and understandings will strengthen my personal characters and help me become more successful in my professional life.

Buen Camino!
