Kudo's for following your instinct, your curiosity, your passion. Retirement is a time to pursue a life of no regrets, and I suspect you'd have major regrets later in life if you hadn't listened to this calling. Best of luck on your adventure, you're doing the right thing. Excited to read about your experience...
Buen Camino. If you walk the Camino Portuguese, try if you can to stay at Casa Fernanda. Fernanda is amazing and has been hosting pilgrims for 20 years. It was one of my highlights last September when I walked. You will need a reservation fernandarodriquez at hotmail.com +351314589521 is her phone. The communal meal is simply awesome.

Thanks, Frtiz! I appreciate that very much. It's great to hear from you. Best wishes to you and your family.
Best of luck. Thinking of doing similar myself, Portuguese or the Italian (st Francis way) one.
