Father and daughter creating lifelong Camino memories

Sorry I don't have anything new for you this week, it's been an incredibly busy week. I've finished tracking the new album and we now wait for the team behind the scenes to work their magic. If you'd like to add Somewhere Along the Way to your streaming service when it's relaunched as a single next week, go to https://www.danmullinsmusic.com/. We can work together to get it added to streaming service lists when it goes live July 5. Many thanks, Dan

Husband and wife pilgrims, Simon Van Wyk and Linda Smith walked to Caminos a decade apart. When I asked them to give me one word that describes their pilgrimage, Simon said 'community' and Linda said 'joy'. You can tell by their energy and focus they've brought those two sentiments home with them. This is an episode about shaking off the rain and doing your best to make each and every day as meaningful as possible. Make your life a Camino.

Veronica Soebarto walked the Camino as an adventure of a lifetime, but soon discovered it was memories and moments from her past that meant the most to her. A rosary, a long marriage, memories of her late mother. These prayers and realisations of love are miracles we may not have found had we not set out on the ancient and spiritual path of the Camino. Veronica's life has changed forever.

Dan has retired his Camino guitar 'Stella', short for Compostella. In this episode Dan returns from the Camino with a brief summary of what the Camino is like right now and then turns his attention to a tribute to his favourite guitar.

Australian pilgrim Gabby Denvir is about to walk her second Camino, marking ten years since she and her husband walked their first Camino. You'll love how Gabby explains the beauty of the simplicity of the Camino, the small treasures, like a cup and saucer and a cup of tea. I love this episode for its gentle, simple message. Take the time to treasure the joys of life.

Harvey and Maya Jade Chiang are a father and daughter who walk the Camino creating lifelong memories. It all began when Harvey and his wife Shannon invited Maya to join the on their first Camino to break out of the shackles of Covid. They keep returning to provide Maya with perspective to help her cope with the pressures teenagers face in modern times. This is a wonderful discussion about the love a family shares and how the Camino provides ways to let our hearts sing.
