Strolling through the village in the morning, searching for the next hot coffee stop which is certainly always just around the corner, definitely was one of my favorite things to do along the camino. #hikethecamino #hikelikeagirl #hike #camino #jakobsweg #travelspain #hikespain #purplerainskirts #walkingitoff

4. Halloween Costume

I became a butterfly atop Table Mountain for Halloween! And coincidentally the @gossamergear backpack I use is called the Mariposa, Spanish for butterfly. What fun on a fantastic trip! The route is largely off-trail and very challenging and this was great for a bit of levity. The icing on the cake was seeing a desert tortoise right in the trail on the way out. More photos and videos of the hike in my story highlights. Happy Halloween!! . Ancestral lands of the Tohono O’odham and Pascua Yaqui

Offta. Bootpacking can be a drag, but my new Six Moon Designs Minimalist seemed to handle it just fine.

Going with the flow. I have not wanted to learn to row much on our rafting trips over the years, and find it very intimidating... but the john day river makes it so easy... Not much to run into out here.
