“Transformation is, in my experience, a word that is overused. In order for an experience to be transformative, it must truly change me at my core and the change must survive the test of time. My second Camino, I walked with Alexander John. It had a qualitative difference from the first. Now I wake up each day with the experience buried deep inside of me. The memories are haunting and vivid. The places we stayed were the best of the best. The connections and friends made were meaningful and lasting. And the lessons learned are now part of me. I am not only grateful but a better person for having walked the Camino with Alexander John. Transformative? Yes!”
