Last day of walking the Camino. We are all happy and ready to arrive in Santiago and, after a short and peaceful stage, we finally made it. We arrived at Plaza do Obradoiro, where the incredible Cathedral of Santiago stands. As the group guide, and with this being the first of the eight times I will walk the Camino this summer, this has been a wonderful experience for me. Being able to get to know each member of the group during these ten days, share my culture with them, show them the place where I was born, and introduce them to the gastronomy of Galicia is something I will never forget. Every participant gave their all to complete the Camino, even those who faced greater difficulties or pain, and as a guide, that makes me very proud. Even though we have only known each other for ten days, the wonderful conversations, laughter, and moments we shared have made each and every one of them earn a special place in my heart. I hope that, if they ever return to Spain, we will meet again. Lastly, I would like to highlight three people: Linda Lee, Ann, and Jon, as they are the ones who organized the trip, and without them none of this would have been possible. Thank you for making my experience as a guide such a wonderful one. – Laura González, G roup Guide
