Die Malerin vom Jakobsweg Teil III

600 kilometres through central Germany - the hike continues along the Romanesque Road through Saxony-Anhalt and ancient pilgrimage paths of the Via Regia through Thuringia. The painter of the Way of St James crosses these two eastern German states in the scorching hot summers of 2018 and 2019 from Bad Wilsnack in Brandenburg to Vacha on the Thuringian-Hessian border. Numerous churches, monasteries and proud castles line the route and invite you to linger. The search for accommodation is exciting, as there are not pilgrims' hostels in every town as there are in Spain. As in the two previous books, the actual pilgrimage serves as a framework for numerous flashbacks, thoughts that come to mind while walking and attempts to steer life in a new direction after the divorce. Memories of Erfurt student days are also awakened, which now lie 40 years in the past. It will be a pleasure for the reader to wander with the author through cultural landscapes dating back over 1000 years, to look over her shoulder as she paints the numerous watercolours and to meet interesting people. Join us on a hike, the most ecological way to go on holiday. You will be amazed at what you can discover that remains hidden when travelling at a fast pace.
