Aucklander Lorraine Thomson describes walking El Camino de Santiago as a physical, mental and spiritual journey.

She's a former magazine publisher, now independent director, who completed the 800 kilometre trek from St Pied de Port in France, over the Pyrenees mountains into Spain, to the ancient burial place of Saint James in Santiago de Compostela.

Last year 300,000 pilgrims walked the trail. Lorraine has written a book about her trip, called The French Way.
