Overview

The Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, The Way of Saint James, is centuries old and has seen an explosion of interest in recent years. In A Funny Thing Happened Walking Lost on the Camino de Santiago: Thoughts Along the Way of Saint James, the author takes you along on his ups and downs of the thirty-six day journey from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, France, to Santiago de Compostela, Spain, on the Camino Frances trail. He shares not only the physical and mental challenges of the five-hundred mile walk for someone in their seventies, but his thoughts along ""The Way."" Among those thoughts, uninterrupted by any news, music, podcasts, or other technological distractions, are his struggles with his Church and Catholic faith. He describes his times being lost both geographically and spiritually and introduces you to the wonderful people from all over the world, including some Camino Angels, who made his journey special. Tutty takes a serious look at the life-changing potential of the Camino pilgrimage but with a more humorous, self-deprecating approach to himself as a pilgrim. For those considering walking the Camino de Santiago or just interested in learning more about it, the author shares what led him to his pilgrimage, his initial concerns, the preparation and experiences while walking, the time and financial investment, and his reflections after the walk. He offers a look at the Camino journey that begins before you take your first step and does not end even after your last.
