[@hedleymccall8353]

I am so enjoying your journey along the Camino Frances. You have a calm communication style, it is relaxing to join you, and I can’t wait for part four. Thank you for sharing these videos.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thank you 🙏 for your kind words. I’m happy you like my videos ☀️🚶🏼‍♂️😃

Hi Per-Ola, I walked my first Camino in 2014 like you. I have walked the Camino Frances every step and I’m walking from Lisbon to Santiago in July. I was watching one of your videos and realised we walked at the same time in 2022. I recognised a few people from my walk, people I shared rooms with. I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for making them. Buen Camino

@@NeilFlanagan-tt3tu Hi 👋🏻 life is funny so near but anyway so far away. Had been fun meeting you. Keep walking and thanks for writing to me. 😃

[@eurotoura]

Hi. Yes you certainly show those who have not yet completed a Camino, all that is involved. You give great reasons as to why you are doing this it gives those who are contemplating taking on their own Camino a great insight into everything good and bad involved and those who for many reasons who will not be lucky enough to take on the adventure a chance in someway to have a little adventure albeit from the comfort of their comfy arm chairs🙏 Thank you and safe travels.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏😃☀️🚶🏼‍♂️

[@lykkereuther8565]

Thanks for all your Camino videos. It has been very interesting to see the whole french Camino through you and your lens. You gave me a lot of very beautiful pics.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

I’m glad you liked them 😃☀️🚶🏼‍♂️

[@TjVoelkerArt]

I love that you show us the roads and paths. Makes me feel like I'm there and I get a good idea of the walk. Thank you!

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏 I would be happy if you share the videos with your friends. 😃🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏼‍♂️

[@TjVoelkerArt]

@@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker I have already and will continue.

[@travelmantv9747]

Excellent videos. I have done 3 Camino from 2014 and I have watched your videos and seen how you have grown and the quality of your videos even more. The one true thing that any person will discover and only when they do a Camino is this statement “ the Camino provides” only someone who has done a Camino will understand. Keep up the good work

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏 for your kind words, I’m happy you liked the video. And yes “the Camino provides “ 😃

[@srfeliciacrandall7243]

Yes thank you for sharing! My husband decided to walk the Camino, I’m unable to go, so I wanted to see what he would be experiencing and you have given me a good idea, thank you!

[@janbreeze1227]

I’m really enjoying watching this, I love the music you’ve used.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏

[@graceplant540]

I'm so happy I found your videos....thank you so much for sharing your camino with us. You passed by Castrojeriz here, such a beautiful place, I was there in March 2020 as the pandemic began. It's so wonderful to see it again in your video. I hope to pass by there again in 2023. Buen camino y ultreia!

[@tarabelleenoch3305]

Thank you! 🙏🏼

[@HNolte3470]

Very nice video. I enjoyed watching it.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏

Excellent content enjoying your videos very much

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏

[@JuanAmeritano-yj5xt]

Excellent video! I've done two caminos. It's amazing to see the difference between the landscape from the lush green of spring and the golden, sere land of late summer. The approach to Castrojeriz in May was fields of tall green grasses and the sides of the camino decorated with thousands of bright red poppies. I could feel the burn as you hiked up the mount behind Castrojeriz. My experience on the downward side was totally different. The road had been supersaturated by heavy spring rains. Walking through a quagmire of thick, viscous mud was pure misery. The mud tried to suck your boots off your feet. My song I sing in my mind for the camino was, 59th Street Bridge Song by Simon & Garfield, 🎵 Slow down, you move too fast. You've got ti make the morning last. It's alright to hike alone and spend time talking to yourself.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏 for telling. I think I have to walk in spring sometime 😃☀️

[@estellagutierrez4615]

awesome thanks

[@ZsoltBarton]

Hi, Congratulations, this third part was also very enjoyable. This was my favorite part of the Way, Burgos and Mezeta. It was a special experience that we were on the road at the same time, and I recognized several of my Camino friends. Thanks for mentioning me too, that was nice. 🙏 I will also share it with my friends.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks for your kind words 🙏😃🚶🏼‍♂️☀️

[@ColmMcCann]

I'm returning to Burgos to continue my Camino this June - and this was a great insight into what to expect along the way. (Was starting to worry about your mentality though with the talking to yourself/outloud self-conversations! Haha!) I only have a max of 5 days walking time so hoping to be fit enough to cover the distance to León - though that will be pushing my luck a bit. Thank you for sharing!

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

🤣🤣👋🏻☀️👍🏻

[@lucdelouw9226]

Congratulations, I love the conversations you make. Very nice pictures

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏

[@monicavguidi]

Congrats on your Camino Frances and filming your journey! I also loved watching you and Camilla on the Portuguese route. That's too bad about your Altra shoes! I also had issues with Altra shoes when hiking in Yellowstone and Grand Teton last year. They started ripping and falling apart! I've switched to HOKA trail shoes and love them!

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks 🙏 what type of Hoka shoe? I still searching for my new shoe. 😃

[@monicavguidi]

@thefasthiker Hoka One One "Torrent 3" Trail shoe. It has a wide toe base, which I prefer and much thicker sole, so you don't feel the rocks or gravel when hiking on trails. I bought them at REI.

In 2021 my husband and I walked the Camino. It was on day 8 that my husband's back was giving him fits, so I walked from Logrono to Najera by myself. I had walked alone before so I wasn't afraid. An hour or so into my walk, I met a local man who was out walking and he asked if he could walk with me for awhile. He wanted to practice his English a bit. So we spent about 2 hours walking together, talking about many things including politics and history. He name was ALEX just like your Camino Angel this day. I'm betting it was the same guy! Isn't that a great thing!!! We are planning on walking the Camino again this summer, starting June 1. I'll be looking for Alex on my way!

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

😃Lovely story, yes sounds like Alex. 🙏😃🚶🏼‍♂️☀️

[@dominiquevancoillie5673]

Very nice film about the camino. Did you practish aloth before you began the camino?

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

No, I don't do anything special before a hike. I try to move daily, take walks of about 45min to 1.5 hours a few times a week. I also think it's good to walk in the shoes you're going to hike in before you walk and also walk with a packed backpack so you teach your body to walk with a pack. Then regarding this hike, my partner and I walked 260 km on the Camino Portuguese a week before. 😃There is a vlog from that hike here on the channel. 😃🚶🏼‍♂️☀️

[@estellagutierrez4615]

I'm planning on half August and September it will take me 47 days I'm slowly legs give me a hard time so slow I go.. I'm 82 and slow solo . What will the weather be more or less have sure enjoyed your Camino blessings 🙏

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thank you 🙏😃 As for the weather, I don't know but probably more sunny days than rainy. Buen Camino! ☀️🚶🏼‍♂️

[@rosemarymadero9855]

Awesome! Can't wait to watch the next chapter on your Camino. Question, I'm wanting to watch without the ads but before I pay for a subscription to youtube I want to make sure that the ads aren't part of yours. Because in that case, it won't make sense to pay. Thanks for taking the time to create these awesome videos!

[@rosemarymadero9855]

Actually, I answered my own question. I am trying ad-free youtube premium for a month, and wah-la! No ads!! :)

[@dennisdrejdal4056]

thank you for your inspiring videos, you are good at filming and telling at the same time, it's an art to make onetake videos. I have noticed that there are many pilgrims who have sleeping pads strapped to their backpacks, is it necessary to have sleeping pads with them or do they have them with them just in case Best regards Dennis Drejdal Danmark 🇩🇰

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Thanks, 😃 I’m happy you enjoyed them. No it’s not necessary to bring sleeping pads. I have also seen them on backpacks but never seen someone using them.🤔☀️😃

[@rickhough3573]

We say "shade". You say shadow.

[@Per-Ola_a_camino_hiker]

Ok yes, thanks 😃
