Hiking for Her: Loss, Lust and Life Lessons on the Camino de Santiago
Amy White
Hardback (with dust jacket)
Pre-order now: for delivery early 2026
What happens when a sarcastic, sexually-confused Yorkshire lass decides to outwalk her heartbreak on Spain’s most famous pilgrimage?
Armed with no training, a battered journal, and too much Sauvignon Blanc, Amy White stumbles her way across the Camino de Santiago, creating a brilliantly unfiltered account of the process; part grief memoir, part comedy of errors, part accidental spiritual awakening.
Between brutal blisters, obsessive crushes, and unexpected kindness from strangers, Amy discovers lessons in love, loss, and self-acceptance. Both hilarious and soul-stirring, this is a story for anyone who’s ever wondered if breaking down might just be the first step to breaking through.
