Mirjam walks 1,600 kilometer to Santiago de Compostela and Finisterre. Along the way, an intimate journey unfolds through loss, love, memory, and her complicated bond with her mother.In the evening doubt strikes. Perhaps it's because I feel so excluded. Because there was no place at the nice long table. Conversations in French. Am I going to be able to do this? Walking so much every day. Always looking for a new place to sleep. Am I going to manage being away from home for so long? What am I doing to myself?'Go and enjoy your adventure, Mum!' I can still hear my son, saying it on the morning I left. If I try hard, I can feel his long arms around me again. I let out a sigh. No, giving up isn't an option. Another 1584 kilometres to go. I'm making progress already.
