"On the Way" with Cátia

There are stories that begin with the courage to admit that change is necessary. Cátia didn’t come to the Camino by chance; she came because life asked her for a break, a reconnection, a fresh start. And she listened. When she decided to walk the Camino for the first time, she wasn’t just looking for beautiful scenery or a different kind of adventure. She was looking for answers. She was looking to rediscover herself. She was looking for the strength to make decisions that, away from the Camino, seemed impossible. And it was precisely amid the steps, the silences, the rain, the thunderstorms, the village cafés, and the “buen caminos” that she found what she needed most. Today, after three Pilgrimages and with another already planned, Cátia shares with us the truth that only those who walk can understand: the Camino transforms us. It shows us who we are when we leave behind what weighs us down. It brings us closer to people who stay with us forever. And it reminds us that we don’t need to control everything—we just need to keep going. Her story is an invitation. A gentle nudge for those who are afraid, uncertain, or hesitant to take that first step. A reminder that no one starts out prepared… but everyone arrives changed. May this story inspire you to do what Cátia says with such certainty: Go. Live the Camino. It has so many beautiful things to offer us.

“On the Way” with Bazo

There are pilgrims who walk the Camino… and there are pilgrims who let the Camino transform them. Bazo’s story isn’t just about kilometers traveled, backpacks on her shoulders, or maps she’s followed—it’s about courage, overcoming obstacles, inner faith, and the quiet strength that emerges when someone finally decides to heed a desire they’ve held onto for years. In this interview, we delve into the journey of a woman who crossed mountains, seas, borders, and physical limits she didn’t even know she had. Who found angels in strangers, family in strangers, and answers in the silence of the toughest stages. She has walked the French Way, the Portuguese Coastal Way, and is now traveling a “digital path,” sharing with the world what the Camino has taught her. If you’re looking for inspiration, authenticity, vulnerability, and that spark that makes you think, “If she did it, maybe I can too,” this interview is for you. Bazo doesn’t just tell us how she walked; she tells us how she was reborn. And every answer is an invitation to understand why the Camino never ends… it simply transforms.
