Day 7 - Caminha to Oia

¡Bienvenido a España!

Sonder and serendipity were appropriate words for today.

An unusual day in that I walked with people. As I arrived to catch the boat to cross the river, there was a large group and I told them to go ahead and I’d wait until they’d all crossed - the boat only takes eight people at the time. And how lucky that I did, for soon I was joined by three other solo women and we spent our day together walking to Oia. I love how walking makes people friends, and today I was lucky to know Berber (Germany), Nicola (Czech Republic) and Sasha (The Netherlands).
Along the way, we share the road with others, share food and stories, then wave each other goodbye to maybe meet at some point.Read more
