The Focus
|
The focus of this pilgrimage is to walk sections of the Via Francigena between Siena and Rome in order to have meaningful conversations with other pilgrims.
Through daily walks totaling 222 km (100 miles over 7 days), we built relationships with other pilgrims to listen to their stories and to share our own. |

I've been leading pilgrimages for the past 5 years. It's hard to put into words the beauty of the Italian landscape and the richness of the cuisine and culture. I'm excited to see how we can journey with other pilgrims who are seeking a fresh start.

I lived in Florence for over 12 years with my family, raising two sons and learning the language and culture. I love walking the VF, cooking Italian food, tasting new wines, and witnessing how God reveals himself to those who are seeking Him.
