    Episode 9: Journey through Time on the Smallest Camino

    Episode 9: Journey through Time on the Smallest Camino

    Ever dreamt of embarking on an adventure, stepping off the beaten path, and exploring trails that lead you through history, culture, and unspoiled nature- all in the span of a few hours? Well, we, your hosts Anna and Edo, did just that. We took on Il Cammino dei Tre Villaggi - the Smallest Camino in Italy, a well-organized 20km loop brimming with breath-taking landscapes and hidden historical gems. Starting and ending in the quaint village of Villa San Giovanni in Tuscia, we navigated through ancient passageways, soaked in the view from medieval hilltop towns, and discovered ruins that whispered tales of a time long gone.

    Now, imagine us trudging through wet, muddy terrain, taking unexpected detours, and even experiencing a heart-stopping encounter with a wild boar. We promise you'll feel the adrenaline rush as we talk about our hike along the stunning Biedano River, our exploration of ancient Etruscan tombs, and our walk amidst verdant vegetation that seemed to come alive with every step. This wasn't just a walk; it was an immersive, emotional journey that gave us a taste of a slow, enriching life, just a few kilometers from the hustle and bustle of Rome. Buckle up, it's going to be one exhilarating ride through the smallest Camino in Italy.

    Episode 7: The Camino Provides

    Episode 7: The Camino Provides

    Welcome to our first mini-episode! A shorter format in which we talk about a specific aspect of human-powered travel and what makes it so special.
    One of the main reasons why we really enjoy traveling by foot or by bike is the profound experience that you live when you travel more slowly, simplify your daily activities and really notice the specific details in the world around you and how this makes your body and soul feel.
    We like to say that the “trail provides” and that this can be an incredible experience. Listen to find out what this means and why we might say that this is the main reason why we travel this way.

    Episode 6: The Way of the Gods

    Episode 6: The Way of the Gods

    The Via degli Dei, or "Way of the Gods," is a 130-kilometer hiking trail that spans from Bologna to Florence in Italy. This ancient route takes hikers through the stunning landscapes of the Apennine Mountains, passing through quaint villages and historic sites along the way.
    The trail starts in Bologna and winds through the hills of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. Along the way, hikers pass through charming towns such as Madonna dei Fornelli, San Piero a Sieve, and Fiesole, each with their own unique history and culture.
    One of the highlights of the Via degli Dei is the climb up Mount Adone, the highest point on the trail at 1,276 meters above sea level. From the summit, hikers are rewarded with sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.

    Join us on this fantastic voyage and listen on to find out what we loved, what we didn't love as much, and what went wrong!
    A few more shout-outs are in order!
    Check out Anna's second podcast, Stories, Saints and Mysteries in which she talks more about Saint Mary of the Snows and quirky history in general.
    And special thanks to our new friend Jake of Journey With Jake, a travel podcast in which we're featured as guests!
