thank you!!!

This is great. You inspired me to do my first Camino (Frances) that I finished just over a week ago. It was such a beautiful experience. Thank you for sharing your videos!

Thank you for your inspirational videos! Just finished my Camino portugues 1,5 week ago. Your videos were part of my motivation. Great experience ☺️

Efren! I have been watching your videos since 2017 after I finished my first Camino in 2016. It is amazing how you have developed your skills in filming your travels. These are clearly your best yet. I am truly intrigued by this newest adventure. I saw several months ago that you were setting of on it and I have been waiting for you to post these videos. Lots of hard work, no doubt. Thank you for that. I pray that you are currently doing well and I look forward to the up coming episodes! be well, and buen camino!

You are high on enthusiasm. Love it. I appreciate you stating the date, time and temperature. Nobody seems to do that. I like to hear the nitty gritty, real highs and lows, not just all the peaches and cream, which gets tedious in these videos. Let’s get to the real meat and potatoes.

Wow! I tuned into your channel in 2019 to prepare to walk the Camino Francis. Your films have evolved and are so professional. Your editing is fascinating. Enjoyed your strolls through the eucalyptus forests. Thank you.

Wow when I saw this I thought we might be able to run into him as we are in Azure today then you said it was April. 😮

love this video! been walking the Frances 12 times since 2001, last time in 2023 and saw all the changes and developments throughout the years and recognized most of it instantly, although my brain doesn't know this direction😁 I think I told you when we met in Ponte Ferreira on the primitivo at the Dutch albergue (during covid) that I'm very grateful that you go to all the effort of filming and carrying this heavy equipment, the drone etc. I walked the GR65 from Le puy with your tracks and just dared to take on this challenge after watching your videos of it.🤩 For this September I intend to walk the Norte, re-watched all your Norte-videos and also downloaded your tracks, thanks a lot. 🥰Now I have 4 different tracks of the Norte on my organic-maps offline app, which is just great, because there are different options on some days and I also like to choose. Thank you so much for all your videos. it's also just so nice to listen to you. Buen Camino 🥰

This is awesome! Seeing it in reverse takes me back there. A little weird but interesting. Thank you for this video. Buen Camino!

The first week, I felt weird, but then I embraced it. It's not for everyone, but it was definitely a memorable experience

Nice! Will follow your journey ❤

You are starting a trend. The "reverse"; a new way of making the Camino Frances. Same, same but different.

If we had a two-way street, it would aleaviate the congestion and make it more exciting.

Cubanito, you are driving us older viewers of yours crazy. You have not finished the Japanese pilgrimage. You have not finished the Camino de La Plata and you reversing the Camino Francés! Wasimara en el timbeque?

lol, I'm editing all 3 at once. Some people are interested in the Shikoku Henro while others would rather see the Frances. El orden del factor no artera el producto. Dale!

its getting busier and busier with every passing year. it's time to move on to less travel routes.

thanks for the suggestion. I always have a hard time finding a good place to eat in Arzua.

That place is fantastic! Some of the best pizza I've ever had, and I love the graffiti walls there. :)

Man it's weird watching in reverse :)

I know, but you get used to it. What's that saying? "You don't really know something until you've done it forward and back"

Hi Efren. We are enjoying the show in reverse. Where did you get the blue and yellow patches?

@Walk_with_Efren

26 күн бұрын

I'm glad you liked the video. I got the distance patches at a giftshop in Santiago.

Loving seeing this in reverse!! Does this also mean that you’ll be doing the Le Puy and Via Gebemensis in reverse as well? I mostly can’t wait to see you return to Rome. You’ve inspired me to walk the last quarter to a third of the Via Francigena next year for my 45th bday!!

I'm glad you liked the vide9. Doing the Frances in reverse was a trip. Yes, I'm planning to do the le Puy and gebeniensis route in reverse as well and probably make it to Lucca sometime in Octubre of this year. I need to cross the Grand San Bernard's pass before it closes for the winter. I'll continue down to arome next spring.

Ultreia!

Thank you. I use my own gps tracks with Google Earth, but many pilgrims use camino ninja, wise pilgrim, or thr buen camino app

Hi Efren, I know you will be busy walking for a while but have you heard of The Sultan's Trail (Sultan's Foundation). It goes between Vienna, and Istanbul, some 2500 km. looking forward to your walk. Chris from Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺

Yes I have. I almost did it this year but I opted to walk Sevilla to Rome instead

This is going to be good. Will be quite the sight to see you head back over the Pyrenees in the opposite direction.

I really enjoyed the climb over the Pyrenees this way. it took 3 days and I was in good physical shape after walking for 3 months.

Probably next May. I plan to walk from sjpdp to Lucca in the fall. I want to walk in Tuscany during spring.

It's wild seeing it backwards, but so much fun! Thanks for making me feel like I'm back there again, which is what your videos always do.

So different and enjoyable at the same time

Duvido você fazer o caminho da fé aqui no Brasil

Efren, is it really so difficult this year to find a bed in an albergue, like I read on many facebook-posts? Is the camino really so much more crowded this year?

@Walk_with_Efren

May is the busiest month on the camino. It did get crowded, but I managed to book ahead, and I also stayed off stage

I miss your intro music.
