Published 11 days ago • 2 min read

Dear Reader,

Thanks to everyone who joined our Women's Travel Wednesday Camino de Santiago webinar with best-selling author Jane Christmas and Carolyn Ray on June 3. What an inspiring discussion! We hope you enjoyed the breakout rooms on mindfulness, wellness/fitness, group travel, journaling and packing, hosted by our Women's Travel Directory partners, and our sponsors, including the Tourism Office of Spain in Canada. We've put their contact information below if you'd like to reach out.

We're planning more sessions like this on countries like Iceland, Japan, Costa Rica, Morocco and Colombia. If there are places you'd like us to cover or if you want to participate in a webinar and share your first-hand experiences, please reach out! (Our February Malaysia session is available on our YouTube channel.)

If you missed it, please watch the video on our YouTube channel. We invite you to leave a comment and let us know if it inspires you to walk your own Camino!

You can still support Carolyn's Camino walk with a donation!

Carolyn walked the Camino de Santiago in Spain for The Period Purse, a Canadian non-profit registered charity that strives to achieve menstrual equity and reduce the stigma surrounding periods. In many countries, period poverty limits women and girls from education and career opportunities. Period poverty refers to the inability to afford and access menstrual products, sanitation and hygiene facilities and education and awareness to manage menstrual health. According to the United Nations, menstrual products are prohibitively expensive for millions of people worldwide. At least 1 in 10 women and girls in rural areas across 12 countries did not have a private place to wash and change during their last period. Her goal is $2,000. You can support this cause here!​

Dear Reader, After finishing my 400 km walk on Spain’s northern Camino, I will admit to feeling both joy and sadness. Joy that I was able to complete this incredible trek, and sadness that it’s over! That month away feels like a gift. The opportunity to walk in silence, see the ocean and get so connected to my body and nature was incredibly meaningful. In the end, it wasn’t just about getting to Santiago, it was about the journey itself. There is no question in my mind that any woman can do...
