Heja!

Heja! I’m Querien.

Wayfaring to Santiago taught me that every single day can be infused with meaning and adventure.

Whether you’re a wandering soul looking for direction, a seasoned pilgrim hungry for more, or totally new to the game and exploring… I’m here to help you with your journey!

On when a wayfarer you’ll find stories, practices, and wisdom to guide you on your (everyday) pilgrimage to reconnect with your meaning & start living it…

Super excited you’re here!

Let’s wander together!

If you are looking to do something adventurous thi If you are looking to do something adventurous this weekend, I have just the thing for you!

Find a big tree with lots of branches. Preferably one that is covered in moss (so your clothes get green) and slippery (so it'll become extra challenging. 

Once you've found one, climb it!

When "growing up" and living busy lives with increasing responsibility, we often forget to play!

Playful moments are those when we are completely taken up by our activity, smiling all the way through.

So if you have some spare time this weekend, make sure to find that tree.

Happy Friday!

Routine ~ One of the things I thoroughly enjoyed a Routine ~ One of the things I thoroughly enjoyed about walking the Camino de Santiago, as well as a lesson I brought home with me, was having a routine. 

Life on the road was reduced to it’s most basic and essential form.

Sleeping, waking, walking, eating & experiencing. 

All of these actions done with a sense of wonder, a curiosity about what the path would bring next.

What have you taken home from you Camino journey?

We often feel we need to define a grand final dest We often feel we need to define a grand final destination like a change in career path or a next step in a relationship to keep us going. Something to aim for, to hold on to when we wander like a Santiago or Fisterra.

I've found however it's OK to focus on the in-between stops. The seemingly small and insignificant like the next village or café can be just as enriching and wonderful. 

Try not to fix too much on the final destination, there are many beautiful places to celebrate on our way there.

Since the pandemic hit, I began to walk more often Since the pandemic hit, I began to walk more often in my neighbourhood. Through streets,  parks, and some days the deserted city centre. 

Right from the start I felt my worrying mind interfere: "What if you get bored? It's the same every single day!"

The long term experiences provided the answer.

On some days it rains and the road carries puddles. On others the Sun shines bright upon us. On some days the paths are flooded with people, on others it's just me. Spring days feature luscious green, while Autumn gives us orange and red.

Even though you're travelling the same path,  it will be different on each day.

Ever wondered what is meant when someone is talkin Ever wondered what is meant when someone is talking about pilgrimage? 

Although the term is becoming ever more present, pilgrimage as a practice remains a rather vague concept for many. 

Is it a spiritual journey, a self-growth voyage, or just a big hike? 

My latest blog article (link in bio) is an exploration of the concept of pilgrimage - my all time favourite topic to research, write about, and explore in everyday life. Even more so after my Camino de Santiago.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Little forest paths. The ones you can barely dist Little forest paths.

The ones you can barely distinguish from the surroundings itself.

Diverting off the path, we find ourselves wandering around without a clear direction - guided by intuition.

A necessary wandering, for eventually, we will be returning to the path we were travelling before.

Doing nothing. For those who have a hard time slo Doing nothing.

For those who have a hard time slowing down, hiking is the perfect medicine.

I've never been particularly good at doing nothing as my body gets extremely restless. The urge to move sets in pretty much right after I'm awake. 

Hiking allows me to unwind, whilst providing the necessary release for my body. A meditation whilst moving.

Does hiking (or walking) do the same for you?

Mist is nature's way of telling us that life is li Mist is nature's way of telling us that life is lived only in this very moment.

We cannot see very far ahead when looking at the path that lies before us, and when we're glance past our shoulder, we won't be able to see much of the road we've travelled.

Although we might take the memories and lessons from our past with us, and have an idea of where we would like to go... all we have is this moment.
