Join me on La Via di Francesco — a pilgrimage of faith, adventure, and transformation. Read my story and walk the Way of Francis with me.
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 24-26. From Umbria to the Lazio region of Italy. Straw fields, fruit trees, new friends and my husband has returned!
Via di Francesco, days 22-23. Glorious water: Marmore Falls, Velino River and Lake Piediluco. Alas, more rain on the walk to Poggio Bustone.
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 15-17. Valfabbrica to Assisi to Spello. The halfway point!
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.
