A Walk with Words Armorel Allen

Following in the footsteps of thousands of pilgrims since the Middle Ages, Armorel set out alone from St Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees. She walked across mountains and plains, through villages and cities for 500 miles until she reached Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. On the Way, she wrote poems which describe the experience and the development of a deeper connection with all of life. Introducing each poem is a short note on the stages passed through. Although solo, the pilgrim was one of many treading this path and deep friendships were forged. This book will resonate with those who have made their own Camino, as well as hopefully inspire others to take time out and to challenge themselves.
