It’s been 3 years since the Wirewalker crew last attempted a European walk. One pandemic and a number of health issues took their toll, but we’re back at it again.
Some background: About 8 years ago (2014), Diane and Bill did their first walk in Europe, the Camino Frances, from St. Jean Pied de Port (France) to Santiago de Compostela (Spain). That 500 mile walk was beautiful and addicting! So, in 2016 we did a second walk, from Irun, Spain to Santiago … and then on to Finnesterre and Muxia (western-most part of Spain). Another 600 miles. 2018 took us to France, where we walked from Le Puy en Velay to our original starting point, St Jean Pied de Port!
2019 took us off course a bit, into Italy, walking the Via Francigena in Italy, from Lucca to Rome.
And now we’re back! This year, we intend to “connect dots”, traveling from Geneva, Switzerland to Le Puy en Velay.
Here’s a map of the various journeys (not including Italy):
So, now we’re on our way! First stop was LA, a commute hop to catch our Iberia flight to Geneva. Diane and Bill use this time to get adjusted to International dining by feasting on fine offerings of Rubios!
Next stop, Geneva! Our plan is to spend three days there, then start the walk through to France.
Au Revoir!
So happy that you’re on your journey! And so happy that I can follow you on your journey! You are loved, you are missed, and you are in our thoughts and prayers.
