Camino Frances Waiting Day 2: Rainfall, Conversations, and the Rhythm of Life | Day 255 of my 2023 Journal

Cecilie Conrad·Sep 13, 2023· 1 minute

Camino Frances. Waiting day two.

As we followed Erik's return with messages all day, we rested another day.

Washed a lot of clothes. Went for a short, beautiful walk.

Had some meals.

Experienced beautiful rainfall.

Did our things.

I especially enjoyed getting to know Cheryl better as we were not exhausted from walking; we had the energy for good conversations.

The Camino has precisely what you need when you need it. The Camino del Santiago del Compostella and the Big One we just call life.

With love

Unschooling and Parent consulting, conversations, blogposts, and podcasts on family life and learning

Hi, I'm Cecilie Conrad. I'm a trained psychologist, mother of four, radical unschooler and full-time traveller. I have lived with unschooling for over a decade and help other families find their own path – whether it is about homeschooling, unschooling, or the bigger question of how you want to live as a family.

I offer guidance, conversations and talks. I call my work grandmothering – not coaching in the traditional sense, but presence, professional insight and concrete help navigating motherhood and finding your way home to your own values.

Am I the right person to help you? You can book a free discovery call, and we'll talk and figure it out.
