From Burgos, Spain

I´ve arrived in Burgos, Spain this afternoon.
My body condition is of course, getting collapsed after 1,000km walk but still able to walk.
Walk in Spain is not so exciting with too many people on the road and the road is just next to National road with a lot of speedy traffic... it´s tiring... and sometimes stressful.
So, I´ll take a bus to Stander, near the ocean in Northern city of Spain to walk along Camino de Norte but not sure if I walk along the way to Santiago de Compostella either to come back to Camino de Frances yet. I´ll see when I get there and walk for a few days.
One of my friend who I met on the road went to Camino de Norte and walked for a couple of days and sent me email : there´re definately less people but beautiful with the ocean and mountains together. So, I´ll decide what to do over there in a few days.

Oh, God...
It´s been 6weeks on the road... unbelievable...
I kept telling me and my friend, another pilgrim, ¨You´re crazy. How can you walk that long distance with pain everyday?¨ Well, I´m still walking, though.
I pulled out my left baby toe nail in France and should do it for my right baby toe nail in Spain again. What´s more, the left big toe also has a big blister underneath of the toe nail so I guess this one also needs a self operation.
I can hear you... ¨Crazy girl!¨
Yeah, I know.
However, what can I do?
I´ll finish the walk...

Cross your fingers, my friends.

한글도 적히네?

고생 많네. 그런데 난 참 부럽네. 약 오르지는 마. ^^

여기도 땡볕. 나는 콩 심고 고추 곁가지 따고 풀 뽑고 물 주고 아직도 어수선한 집안 구석구석 돌아보고 매실도 담고... 밤 9시까지. 하루에 한 번 이상은 '나는 무엇을 바라 이러고 있을까' 하는 기분이 들지.

그런 기분이 들 때면 생각해. 나도 가 버릴까. 땡볕에 발톱 빠지며 걸어버릴까, 외국어는 입이 안 떨어지니 당연히 묵언일테고, 그렇게 걷다보면 '내가 왜 이러는지' 좀 알아질까...

멀리서지만 가끔 마음 보내고 있어.
잘 지내고 좋은 길, 좋은 사람 만나기를!

To Mirang,
Thanks for your message.
I´ve already done 2/3 of the way done so I´ll get to Santiago by the end of June, I guess...
My condition is getting weaker but I´m still able to walk.
Don´t worry, I´ll manage it somehow.

Missing you a lot.
