A “pilgrimage lifestyle” can be described using seven key concepts:

freedom, simplicity, silence,  lack of worry, lack of hurry,  spirituality, sharing.

Travelling along a pilgrimage route can be a way of “unplugging” – being less online, closer to nature, more in touch with oneself. Perhaps also closer to someone you want to spend more time with, or someone you meet along the way.

Walking (or cycling) a long way is physical, but it doesn’t have to be strenuous, if the pace is right.
