Galicia, Spain - A welcomed surprise of natural beauty!

Upon completing our Camino across Spain, we met Nelson's family in Santiago as we began to explore the region of Galicia. We didn't know much about it upon visiting but one of Nelson's parents' friends was a local and gave us the royal tour. We truly enjoyed our time here with family and were amazed by the beauty in a 'new to us' region of Spain. The natural beauty of the ocean cliffs is reminiscent of those in Ireland, as it is right across the pond. Galicia was also a Celtic settlement at one point. 

Enjoy some pictures of our treasured time with family in Spain.

Camino de Santiago- Our way

Finishing the Camino in Santiago de Compostela

We made a decision to take on a new journey. A journey that took 32 days. A journey where we found our way across Spain, and in the process found out more about ourselves. A journey filled with breathtaking scenery, delicious new foods, amazing individuals with kind spirits, while physically challenging our bodies and our minds everyday.  We walked 500 miles from France to the west corner of Spain to Santiago de Compostela and we would recommend the adventure to anyone!

We hope you enjoy a sample of our photos, although they do the scenery and our adventure little justice.
