The rhythm of our days was simple - packing, walking, eating, resting, walking again, stopping for the night, bathing, washing clothes, sharing a meal and stories with others, and sleeping. It was a level playing field. We were all sweaty, dirty, carrying our own baggage. Simple, affordable food was generously provided. I felt welcomed as a stranger into an international community of strangers.
