Synopsis

In 2015, Beth and Eric Jusino walked out of a cathedral in the historic village of Le Puy, France, down a cobblestone street, and turned west. Seventy-nine days, a thousand miles, two countries, two mountain ranges, and three pairs of shoes later, they reached the Atlantic Ocean.

More than two million pilgrims have walked the Way of Saint James, a long-distance hiking trail. Each pilgrim has their own reason for undertaking the journey. For the Jusinos, it was about taking a break from the relentless pace of modern life and getting away from all their electronic devices.

In Walking to the End of the World, Beth shares, with wry humor and infectious enthusiasm, the joys and travails of undertaking such a journey. She evocatively describes the terrain and the route's history, her fellow pilgrims, and the villages passed, and the unexpected challenges and charms of the experience.

Beth's story is also about the assurance that an outdoor-based, boundary-stretching adventure is accessible to even the most unlikely of us. In her story, listeners will feel that they, too, can get off their comfortable couches and do something unexpected and spectacular.

What a great book that truly detailed the plight of the Camino de Santiago which I plan to do next September. This really got me excited to take part in this unique pilgrimage.

This gorgeously stunning book will make you want to get the best hiking shoes there are, pack a bag, book a flight, and disappear into the glorious nature of God’s planet Earth, forgetting any and all things that don’t truly matter in this beautiful life. Loved it!......more
