TRAVEL
‘The world is better on foot’ proclaimed the brochure headline, beneath a cloudless blue sky picture.
I saw nothing here to stop me. I booked.
A taxi to collect me from my door, transport me to the airport; a coach ride to the start. I would walk the Camino, meet fellow travellers, get to know myself.
Pandemic came; the trip is cancelled.
Pulling on my boots, I walk from my front door. To the edges of town, around its borders. I see the world, smile and say hello. I find friends, old and new; and learn to love myself.
