Via di Francesco, days 27-28. Ponticello Sabino to Rome and the Vatican. The end of the pilgrimage: tears of sadness and joy and gratitude.
Via di Francesco, days 18-21. Umbrian medieval hill towns, olive groves, toileting, mistakes and ending a day ahead of schedule.
Via di Francesco, days 12-14: Pietralunga to Gubbio and Valfabricca. I have become a rule breaker.
Via di Francesco, days 9-11: Sansepolcro to Pietralunga. Alone on the trail. God is loving and merciful. He sent me trail companions.
Via di Francesco, days 6-8: Badia Prataglia to Sansepolcro. Trail markers, maps, food, limoncello and tears.
Via di Francesco, days 3-5: Consuma to Badia Prataglia. Views, scents and experiences (good and bad).
Our Via di Francesco adventure: the prep days plus our walk from Firenze (Florence) to Consuma, Italy.
Follow along as I walk La Via di Francesco, in Italy. This adventure is a hike, a pilgrimage and a life changing experience. Join me!
