<p>Despite evidence to the contrary I do not think of myself as a particularly courageous soul. I am not content to bask in my accomplishments nor do I spend much time tooting my own horn. I wasn't raised that way. I was taught to downplay my successes. To steer clear of vanity. I was raised to be humble. So as I sit down to write this I hope you'll forgive me for saying something completely out of character here but I feel the need to tell you that 779 kilometers is a long way to walk - and I walked every single step...</p><p>...As you travel along with me on my journey I invite you to take the opportunity to explore the spaces around you.

Pay attention to the things that we are often too busy to see. To hear. To smell. Let them take you inward. See where the path leads you.</p><p><em>Buen Camino</em>.</p><p><br></p>
