Attempt of a first review

What made the journey, how could I fulfill my dream?

I try to summarize it briefly from my WhatsApp status:

I had so many travel companions without whom I would never have reached this goal:

First of all, my dear wife Babsy, whom I have burdened so much with my long absence, she had to cope with the professional "farewell" without me.

My extended family, first and foremost my children, who have always supported and encouraged me.

My companions on the way: Reinhard, Ingo, and Arni - you have helped me immensely!

My Camino friends, whom I did not know before and who enriched me immensely:

Marcel, Angela, and Brigitte, Jan, Anja, and Chris, Jolanda, Paul, and Torrie, Eric, Berti, Dietlind, and Regina, Christoph, Helene, Petra, Lukas, Hanna, Fabricio, Yvonne, Gabi, and Hans, thank you for the accompaniment!

And I met pilgrims with infinite faith in God: Gabriele and Paul - you have taught me a lot in your fundamental trust!

I had so many companions who repeatedly encouraged me to update my WhatsApp status, even if I didn't have time for anything else. Many gave me courage through their encouragement in the travel blog.

I didn't need much medical help, I thank Marie and Julia for their advice on my shin irritation. Although I didn't really listen to it (rest days were simply not possible), I understood the underlying concern 😉.

I experienced heavenly encouragement again and again, Henny and Cor and Jakobus himself showed me the way.

I thank everyone. Today I want to end my blog as follows:

Your happy, satisfied and healthy Pilgrim

Hei

(Babsy bought me new pants yesterday: "Nothing fits you anymore!") 😉😘😊
