The story behind the name...
Back in the summer of 2018, I kept hearing of folks who were venturing to Spain to do this beloved pilgrimage. Then, completely unplanned, I was actually listening to Shirley Maclaine’s audiobook, ‘the camino’, while making parts of this bag. (Great book by the way!)
Finally when it was finished I tried it on...oh boy!. I think at that moment the airport started to call my name...adventure surged into my toes...and I saw myself travelling the world with just this backpack.
And then I asked myself, ‘what should I name it?’
I immediately heard, ‘the camino’
Well of course...the name has been in the air waiting for me to notice!
As you can see...the camino is a solid travelling buddy.
Even if your pilgrimage begins with trips to and from work...my hunch is he is already arranging an extended vacation for you.
