When Valentina announced her first Portuguese Camino in 2024, I immediately felt like a light had turned on inside me! I trusted my intuition and prepared for several months with Valentina's thoughtful guidance.
It was a wonderful 6-day journey with a small group of diverse, fun, and kind group of "caminantes" from different backgrounds and ages. We shared long and rewarding walks, hikes, and dinners together along the gorgeous Galician coast. It was the perfect combination of physical exercise, contemplation, deep conversations along with laughs and jokes, delicious meals and wines, beautiful landscapes, rural trails and opportunities to visit historic towns and cities. I didn't have to worry about lodging or carrying my luggage, Valentina had everything covered so I just focused on being present and enjoying the journey.
The Portuguese Camino retreat is the perfect package for someone looking for a new adventure without the stress of organizing a trek in a foreign country and carrying huge backpacks for weeks. It also offers a small group and the space for being by yourself, as you prefer. You get the best of a weeklong experience at a reasonable cost, plus the support of a great host. I fully recommend it!
