PR-CDN01 :: 34 — We Never Fully Arrive

del Norte Day 34
O Pedrouzo → Santiago de Compostela
18.82km, 3:29:25
27,179 steps

And just like that, we arrived in Santiago de Compostela.

Above is my credencíal — stamped once per day by albergues along the way. "Proof" that we walked, verified by the government offices of Spain in Santiago.

Below, a tired man. Sitting in a park and wondering how cities can even exist. And now I'm sending you this letter. I'll need a few days to process. I'll send out a final recap in the coming days.

But for now, a big, big thank you for following along, and taking part. Off to sleep as much as a body will accept.
