My (unexpectedly) feminist pilgrimage: Walking the Camino de Santiago and the freedom I found I scuffled through the hallways of the building where I worked. My hands pooled with sweat and my stomach flipped. It was time — after many months of intricate planning — to quit. In addition to giving notice to my manager, I was required to report my departure to the big boss.

Every 50 metres or so you will come across a discarded piece of used tissue paper or worse still, wet wipes made from plastic that will still be lying there for the next 1000 years of Pilgrims to see. I’ve only been walking five days but if this is what it’s like at the end of the season I’d hate to see what it’s like at the height! Come on people. As well as meaning to have…
