Finding Our Way - The Camino de Santiago Documentary

A pilgrimage for both the body and mind - the Camino de Santiago is really something special. This documentary shows how we found our way, the hard way.
We walked the Camino Frances in August 2021. We had no idea the impact that it would have on us and spent many of our days looking forward to its end. Six months later, we are still talking about our time on the Camino and its impact on us. We had no idea that the Camino was exactly the journey we needed and would continue to teach us life lessons to this day.

I walked with my sister-in-law in 2019 from Sarria to Santiago and the best thing that happened to me was the second day out I lost my phone. Got to Santiago in the rain and didn’t get our certificate but we got our stamp at the end.I didn’t really realize what I had accomplished and when it meant until I got home. It was a wonderful experience at 80 years old.

My good friend Pete walked the camino about 10 years ago. He was going through some really heavy stuff in his life so he felt the Camino would help his mental state. I recall him calling me along his 35-day journey. He had some amazing stories to tell. He had a life-changing experience, although the real effect to his spirit took more than 35 days. He's no longer with us, he passed away roughly 3 years after his walk. I really miss him. He's the only person I know who has even walked The Camino De Santiago. Maybe I'll go for it some day.

[@JSL2000]

I've heard a few people saying that The Camino changes you as a person. My experience of extensive travelling is that it doesn't change you. But, if you're lucky, it gives you the urge to go home and get your life in order, start taking things a bit more seriously, treat people a bit better, and have a bit more regard for yourself too. That's where you change and become a better person - at home.

[@maestra3]

You are contradicting yourself. You said Camino or extensive traveling "doesn't change you" - but when you go home you do things differently. What are you trying to say about the process that "doesn't change you"?? confused, because the person you brought home did change if their actions are different at home because of the travel/camino.

[@JSL2000]

@cnauman9610 You're reading too much into my post. You need to read it again and take it all at face value. There's no hidden messages in there.

[@ajourneyoftransformation]

[@JSL2000]

@@ajourneyoftransformation Read the bottom line of my post 'at home'. That might help you to see where I changed for the better. All the travelling around the world prior to that was an extension of my unfulfilling drifting life.

I walked the camino back in 2007 and the most important part was getting up early and walking with the sunrise in order to get to the albergeus in time. I also walked slowly but if you get "on the road" by 6:30 at the latest you eventually arrive at the daily destination around 3 or 4 pm which leaves you with enough time to check into one of the albergues and to take a look around the place you arrived in. And the best thing was that there were no real smart phones back then, no checking your socials all the time to constantly plan every move you make, not much of pre booking anything along the way... just letting "the camino provide". I think I wrote one text message (which was about all you could do with the phones back then) on the first day to say that I arrived to a friend of mine in those 30 days. One of the most important things I carried was a sleeping bag. On my 30 day pilgrimage I had to sleep on various floors because there was no real place to sleep. I slept in a tiny church, in a backroom of one albergue and on one occasion because the weather was really warm I slept outside behind the albergue on a lawn. It was totally awesome. A pilgrimage is not about cozy accomodation. It is about overcoming what lays in your path. That then is brought into your daily life after the pilgrimage and helps you see the world with different eyes.

“To make change in your life you have to feel, at a minimum, uncomfortable, the more change you want, the further from your current self that you want to get, the more discomfort youre going to feel in that process.” - Josh. 👏👏👏 Wow!!! If this didnt statement alone hit me a little too hard - but in the greatest of ways! I dont think I’d ever physically be able to do the Camino walk but those words can be applied to almost every situation in life! Thank you wise sir!

[@resikartawinatta534]

Greetings from Jakarta/Indonesia, dear Lisa & Josh; thank you for your sharing-video during your Camino. I learnt about Camino de Santiago when I was 45 years old & still worked actively (about 350 days per year) so I should wait for 'this' until my retirement & I was 61 years old..🤗.. I went with 3 other Indonesians but we started in 'Ponte de Lima' Portugal on early October 2019, together with a pilgrimage group from USA. Like you, everyday we walked about 20 km for 9 days but personally I enjoyed 'this' so much because I could practised walking meditation & praying for all of my love ones + myself along the way until we arrived at Santiago de Compostella to join the 'mid-day' mass then climbed above the altar to hug St.James tomb, then prayed & meditated the whole afternoon to thank HIM for my wonderful Camino experiences...💝🙏💞... Hope, I could do it again from Sarria/Spain with my Sister's family & some other friend next year after I celebrated my 65th years old birthday..😍...

[@heysang]

Loved this journey! I rarely watch an hourlong KZbin video, and my wife rarely watches KZbin, but the thoughtful narration and scenery drew us in like a moth to a flame. Thanks for adding one more thing to our bucket list ; ) Continue being authentic and thanks for the laughs. Also, whoever edits and splices the videos w the overlaying narration and music, it’s very skillful!

Well done Liza and Josh. I did the Camino ( Im 68 yrs old) last Sept=Oct.'22 . I was also a slow walker as I have a knee injury. It did slowed me down a lot. Friends and I only did it from Sarria to Santiago. That was bad enough! We had booked hotels and all breakfasts and dinners. A glass of cold wine and and grilled Pulpo was the best after a long hot hike. I remember losing it with a swollen knee on the second last hike. It was an experience of a lifetime for me seconded by my Machu Picchu hike.

[@dcroxby]

Thank you! The most useful video on the Camino that I have found. I like to travel with as little planning as possible, and I’ve been worrying that the constant requirement of “finishing” this walk could ruin the experience for me. I’m not going to worry about it. I’m starting in France and wherever I end up in 30 days is where I end up. I can always return.

[@shawnkim8542]

All glory to Jesus Christ. Thanks

My wife and I walked the Camino in 2015. Definitely the most extraordinary thing ever. A long story how we got there THROUGH out the walk received so many blessings GOD spoke to both of us

[@ravivfaig3541]

Thank you for this video. having completed most of the Camino (Pamplona to Santiago) during September 2021, It was great experiencing it again through your eyes and feelings. I especially liked and appreciated the end part where you talked about your struggles with the sense of emptiness, once the Camino is done. I remember being cranky that day, annoyed with all the technicalities of obtaining the Compastela which stood in direct contrast to the sense of introspective and serenity of walking the WAY. But I regard this experience as life changing, having return home, selling my apartment and moving to Spain for good this summer. yeah, it was that effective. (moving to Europe was brewing for years, the Camino just made me do it faster and with no regrets)

[@MizzuzMoto]

Standing ovation. Well done Pilgrims.

[@enjoypladecorrals]

You did a great job explaining el Camino. I've lived 3 years now in Spain and you've had a much better learning curve on adapting to Spanish eating habits than I did. Great to see you being able to give an honest report rather than a phoney super charged travel blog you often encounter on Americans in Europe. I'm european and we are an old and tired continent with many divisions and tensions right now. To walk there is finding peace for yourself and I think I've already experienced your good vibes. I watched your video in 3 or 4 stages and glad I watched till the end

I walked the French route of the Camino in September 2017 and have very fond memories of my experience, which is why I like to watch how others have walked the Camino. Seeing places I recognise sparks different emotions in me as I remember the days that I wished would never end and the days that I wish I could just get to my destination as fast as possible. What I really liked about this documentary is your honesty and how you summed up your empty feelings on arrival in Santiago, I too felt a little like this. A year before I had spent some weeks travelling across the USA on different Amtrak trains and arrived in Penn Station in New York on a Friday afternoon. I wanted to shout to everyone; "I've just finished a voyage across the nation". Instead I had to deal with weaving my way in and out of the commuters who wanted to get home after a week's work and I had an empty feeling, questioning my journey. I suppose it is evidence of the saying about the destination not being the end game but it's the way you get there. Happy future travels!

[@helenasantos957]

Maybe one of the big lessons that you get from the Camino is precisely that you should feel internal satisfaction at your own achievement without the need for praise, acknowledgement and "reward". It is after all your achievement and you are the only ones who truly know the effort you put into it and what you got out of it. The feeling of accomplishment is the ultimate prize....

[@suespencer6563]

OMGosh, this was SO well done. THANK YOU for your authenticity and your honesty at how you handled life as it came your way each and every day of your own personal Camino. This Camino is still on my bucket list and I am hopeful. You both are certainly encouraging. I used to do "trail magic" at various sites along the Appalachian Trail in Virginia's Shenandoah National Park. It was awesome to meet and feed so many amazing thru-hikers. Anyway, I met this couple - close to my age at the time - around 60-ish. They had hiked a lot of trails but for some reason, this section of the AT had been kicking their butts and they had been close to throwing in the towel. The shift for them occurred the morning they woke up and he said to his wife, simply...."Wanna go for a walk?" Just THAT altered the dynamics enough for them to keep going and DO IT THEIR WAY. They threw out the time constraints. Anyway, if I can actually DO this, that's the way I hope to start each day, pain or no pain. Wanna go for a walk?

[@MauryExplorer_]

i walked from Burgos to Santiago between april and may of this year. a beautiful experience full of knowledge and fascinating places. despite the training I had problems with my calves and knees. in addition to blisters. for a person who lives in city, with family-friends-business, it can be an introspective experience. I am already introverted and therefore I have not felt a particular change. in fact I recommend everyone to do a minor experience starting from Sarria and then try something longer. 30 days is a long time. buen camino to all

[@susansavelli5521]

OMG I felt the same way when I did my camino- the minute I threw out the guidebooks and stopped listening to the purists, I felt so free. And did not feel guilty one bit about calling for a cab.

[@LisaAndJosh]

yes!! we didn't really understand the whole saying of "your way" until that moment

[@deannamadrigal7503]

Yes! I did a bicycle trip with my best friend who had cancer. She bicycle the Continental Divide from Banff Canada all the way down to the border of Mexico, 2800 miles. It took us 9 weeks. The trip was life-changing but what nobody pointed out, that it took a long time to process, is that you get so expanded and then you come home and you go into this deep contraction, it's very altering and not in a good way. So I completely understand what you were sharing and how you felt at the end of the trip. Especially if you have seen the movie with Amelia Estevez and how his father walks into the church with all the people and the bell swinging, somewhere in our psyche I think we're expecting that also. I completely enjoyed watching your journey and you guys did get it right. Blessings to you both 🦋😎🌄

What a lovely couple you are! I thoroughly enjoyed following your journey. I’ve always been fascinated by the Camino. And, coincidentally, we know the couple who runs the Pilgrim House; I’m thrilled to hear of your experience!

I returned from my Frances Way Camino almost two weeks ago. I loved your documentary on many levels. You kept it honest. I was most interested in how you processed the Camino when you left. Me, I loved and hated climbing and descending, but I felt ready for it. The community was the best part of the Camino, but I also appreciated the aloneness, the loneliness, and the silence in the morning darkness. I am still processing my experience and the lessons I have learned. Thank you for documenting your Camino last year because I realize I am not alone in understanding my feelings after completing the 500 miles!

I love how right in the middle you went to Madrid. The stopping often, snacking, etc, taking in the sights & smells, is exactly how we travel and I wanted to have the “permission” to do this on our Camino - maybe we only do 15km per day, maybe we take a couple of years to complete it, maybe we surprise ourselves. Thank you for putting this together and sharing your feelings along the way. I hope you have plans to go again!

Each of my sons are taking time out of their lives to help me with my camera gear so we can carry two DSLrs and lenses to document and later quilt my montages of my Camino experiences. I'm starting in Leon with my oldest son and finishing from Sarria with my youngest son. I'm so grateful to them for going. I've done two things people advise you not to do - reserve ahead of time - which will limit my freedom, and carry heavy camera equipment. I tell you all of this, because your message to do the Camino your own way is heartfelt and genuine. I've read it elsewhere. But I really felt it in your account.

Buen Camino and you've got the majesty of the mountains and don't be shy about taking the bus out of Leon. I don't want to cross the line about planning but make sure you take the strongest son first! The scenery is superb. The slow climb to Cruz de ferro and the steep climb to O'cebriero offer fantastic vistas for your cameras and I'm sure you'll get lots of fantastic footage. So many lovely pueblos to enjoy, I'm sure you'll all have a ball.

Hey you guys! I loved your video documentary... honest, humble, and very real. My husband and I did the Sarria to Santiago stretch 6 years ago and it was such a wonderful experience. We're contemplating going back to start in France and make our way out to Santiago again - we'll likely break it up in two parts... do one half one year, another half the next year. My husband's family just completed their last portion of the Camino (Logrono to Burgos) this morning... and agreed... the Camino is whatever YOU want to make of it... it took them many years to walk the entire thing.

Hello Lisa and Josh congrats on your completion of Camino de Santiago journey. I am proud of you both for not allowing despair, boredom and people's approval discouraged you or changed your mind about your journey. You both sacrifice a great deal...... making the decision, taking that first step, remaining on the journey all the way to completion. Although you felt empty at the end and probably questioned why you did this in the first place I believe you both have learned a great deal of perseverance. You both pressed beyond your feelings, enjoyed each other's company and learn how to slow things down. It wasn't a competition, so learning how to enjoy the journey to where your going is what most people don't do in life and as a result are missing out on life most precious moments. You both stopped to smell the roses and enjoyed some rain. Again congrats and thanks for the video. #CaminodeSatiago2023 hopefully I'll be there with my hubby, professor and classmates. 🤗🙏🚶🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♀️🛌🏽🦶🌿🌳🥖🍳🍺☕️🌧🌝 🎫👟🧢 🇪🇸 I want to experience it all😉 Buen Camino

I did this in 2018 and it was, literally, the greatest thing I ever did in my life, and still is. I'm 32. 28 at the time. Once you do it life is just very different afterwards. That's not a teary-eyed rewriting of the experience - it actually isn't the same afterwards. The openness, the friendships, the walk, everything, it's fantastic. Not every day, obviously, but 98% of them. Also, I think I did it just as it was on the cusp of getting very busy, and I know now after Covid it must be crazy. I recommend it to people all the time. Just even for a week - do it.

[@selinasites2893]

Wow! Just watched it all the way through and relived what I faithfully watched as you posted while on the Camino! So proud of you both and the work you put in to both the journey and to the documentary! Wow! You frickin’ did a documentary! 😃 I remembered Logrono and the Pinchos Crawl night as your turning point and I felt the same joy watching this as I did when that video posted knowing you were finally figuring out what your way was! I was routing for your journey all along and am blessed by your documentation of it, good days and bad days. While I am not going to be doing the Camino anytime soon, this documentary does remind me again that I could set a BHAG (big hairy audacious goal) of my own and work towards it, little by little with your inspiration! A pilgrimage of my on from point A to point B! Why not? I am very sorry you had hecklers comments infiltrating the videos. I NEVER once felt you weren’t doing it right or you were quitting or cheating bc you stayed in a hotel. I only felt happy for you and in full support of whatever your choice was. How could you be doing it “wrong”, it’s not like you were writing code for crying out loud 🙄 Anywho, peregrinos, best wishes and job well done! -Selina

[@LisaAndJosh]

You are so kind and supportive, Selina! We really appreciate it (now and then, when we were on that incredible journey!) Love this--BHAG, for the win!!! :D Writing code loll

Thank you for this video. I walked from Roncesvalles to Santiago in Sep, 2007 and again in May, 2008. Had to do it because the Camino would not leave me in peace. Third time was from Valencia to Santiago in Sep, 2013, 720 miles, a route walked by only about 1,000 people annually. I treasure my experiences, and your experiences as depicted here, at once similar and different from mine. Long ago I trashed my diplomas from college and graduate schools, but I treasure my three pilgrim passports and Compostelas.

[@winnienagel]

Thanks you for sharing your journey. It is so powerful and beautiful that you found your way

[@rodrigom6404]

As peaceful as the Camino itself. Thanks for bringing back the memories. 2019, when i did it with my dad feels like a lifetime ago... must go back!!

[@LisaAndJosh]

thank you for watching. we can't wait to bring our relatives on the Camino someday too :)

[@lyndaassur5304]

Thank you so much for this video! I'm heading there in 6 weeks and was uncertain what to expect (physically and mentally). Presently trying to get in shape for it working up to 14 mile walks each day. That in itself is a journey at 66.

[@AmbientWalking]

Thank you for this really inspiration documentary about your trip! I really enjoyed watching it and it was very uplifting!

[@joy2253]

Thrilling, moving, beautiful to see you two make the journey from outward to inward. The balancing act of life! I am so going to take busses when needed rather than suffer. Beautifully filmed and so spontaneously narrated! Professional editing made it easier to follow. Thank you!

[@Poliguillo]

This video just touched my soul, not much else to say.

[@christinetaggart2715]

Fanstastic, so glad to hear that the journey revealed the ending. Beautifully put together with honesty and lessons learned along the way. Can’t wait to visit Pilgrim House, we have often felt lost at the end of our Camino’s, walking around the city, when we would have loved a quiet introspective area to mull over our experiences. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@LisaAndJosh]

😊 Thank you for watching and following along. The Pilgrim's House definitely felt like a place to decompress and just be.

[@gaelynschoeman1189]

I just loved your honesty! Thank you for an amazing video from two lovely people! Congratulations Peregrines.

[@21Diddley]

Excellent video. Hundreds of thousands of people achieve remarkable things every day, and it's up to each individual to come to terms with the fact that very few other people on the planet understand that achievement. The instant gratification of someone saying, 'Wow, what uou did was amazing!' is denied to a huge number of them, so having learned that lesson at the end of your pilgrimage I hope that you'll be generous with your validations of other people's achivements for the rest of your lives, regardless of whether or not you identify with what they did. It's a wonderfully generous and kind thing to do for someone else and most of us forget to it enough.

[@berniebeethe6102]

Thank you for refreshing my Camino experience of 2018. Your insightful comments and sharing of deep feelings very much appreciated. Buen Camino!

[@LisaAndJosh]

Buen Camino, Bernie!

[@dirtroadtraveller5553]

Hey guys!! This video was awesome! We are ‘planning’ for spring 2023…. Your advice is very much appreciated! Thank you!

[@jules-philippeball8567]

This was such a great video and thanks so much for all the work you did to put it together. I finished the Norte route two weeks ago and have been struggling to "adjust" again to life after the camino - so many questions that don't have easy answers. This was wonderful to watch and I appreciated how real the end feels. Looking forward to seeing your next travels.

[@bduffy1215]

Absolutely wonderful and beautiful Camino. There is no right or wrong way, just your way. Be yourself, not others, not competing, but true to you and your being. Thank you for an amazing and inspirational video.

[@katiepeterson9497]

A great video so beautifully made by two very kind spirited people. I loved following your journey!

[@LisaAndJosh]

thank you for watching and following along

[@jenniferliang3166]

This was SO GOOD! I have a long term plan to do the Camino and I cannot wait! Such amazing footage and advice. Thank you!!

[@LisaAndJosh]

thank you so much :) i really hope you get a chance to do it soon - it's an amazing experience!

[@jennywilson2361]

Thank-you Lisa and Josh for sharing your journey. I loved the messages you have given about doing the Camino your own way and watching you actually do that. I am travelling to do it in September and will take your messages with me.

[@lauraholden2057uk]

truly inspirational ,the train journey you went on cutting out most of the camino, then tagging on at the end was mind blowing , i laughed my head off when i saw you high fiving in the square outside the cathedral, and no band to fanfare the pair of you, do you know that some people in their 80s walk the entire camino and dont get bored , its probably a generational thing

[@jorel4477]

Was great rewatching your journey on the Camino. Great editing and well structured. Good job guys

[@LisaAndJosh]

Thanks for watching it all :)

[@OnePackWanderers]

Wow, you guys! What a milestone this is. You made a full-on documentary, and it is PBS-level quality!

[@LisaAndJosh]

Yahhh!! 😊 (PBS, are you out there?)

[@peterholleman7181]

Thx for this video, very inspiring. It’s one of the most KZbin video’s about the Camino that keeps fascinating. The call of the Camino is running true my veins again to go and walk for the second time. Much Love to you both, greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@oliviakoutsky6735]

Beautiful video! This was my treat between midterms, and it made me so excited for my own Camino this summer. Thank you for sharing this, and I feel so lucky that I could watch this!

[@jeffrodabro]

How amazing for you guys. I lived in Germany for several years, been to France, Spain, but at full speed of the Autobahn and never really got to see much. I've been planning the Camino for years, and COVID threw a wrench into the works. I saw both of you grow during this vid. I never even fast forwarded.

[@jeffrodabro]

Good job!!!

[@jeffrodabro]

Of course you know I'm doing more up to date research, and you guys have me convinced.

[@LisaAndJosh]

Hi, Jeff! Thanks so much for finding us and watching our film. The Camino really was such a unique experience and way to see Spain. We talk about going back again and again :) Hope you are able to do your Camino soon!!

[@wheitmann]

Awesome seeing an almost movie-length video from you guys! And what a quest the Camino de Santiago was, it was very interesting to see your experiences.

[@LisaAndJosh]

It was definitely an adventure and journey, that continues today :) thanks for watching!!! :)

[@geofftrimm]

I agree! WOW! What a beautiful film. I have wanted to this for years - now I will.

[@spanamwar]

This is an excellent video. Thank you! The advice of doing it your own way is very true. For us, it was a struggle...and we can't wait to go back!

[@danielle3988]

Wow. When I clicked on this video I was not expecting to be moved by your journey, but with a teary eye I'm sad the video is over. Wonderful transparency and honesty about your journey. I've yet to make mine, hopefully spring 2023. I'll be 67 by then and this has been a dream of mine for over 20 years. You nailed it. How we do it matters not, how we process the feelings and experiences is where the ah-ha moments ring true and change us for the better. Thank you SO much for posting this video on youtube and for sharing your hearts. Ultreia! ❤

[@marthajoyrichardson7727]

I will be turning 60 in December of 23 so I want to walk for my 60th so spring 23 or 24

[@mmeb7250]

Hello Lisa and Josh. This documentary went by so quickly because it was so well done. I have been wondering about the Camino, and now I think I have a great sense of it. Thank you!

[@LisaAndJosh]

Thank you so much for watching :)

[@lydiasevillena2608]

Thank you for sharing. I watched your entire journey. I was a bit teary & emotional during the end of your journey … well said.

[@Aguanuay1]

Your experience very much reflected many of the feelings I had during my Camino.
