A Grown Up's Gap Year

Saying Yes in Mid-life: A Camino Pilgrimage with Anna Manlulo

Monique van Tulder Season 1 Episode 8

Anna Manlulo said yes to herself and walked the Camino de Santiago — one step, one day, along hundreds of kilometres of ancient pilgrim paths. We talk about the moment she moved from “one day” to “I’m going,” the logistics around work and family, the day-to-day reality on the trail, and what changed when she came home. You’ll leave with five things: one mindset shift, one planning tip, one safety habit, one packing tip, and a prompt to find a ‘local Camino’ you can try in your own postcode. Why not now? Why not you?
