WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life
Society & Culture:Places & Travel
Mark Joseph hiked El Camino de Santiago with his father's ashes. The father and son had intended to walk the long trail together, but, like many people, they postponed their dream hike until it was too late.
He's filmed a documentary about his walk to Muxia, which is the end of El Camino de Santiago.
Between now and August 3, 2019, he is running his Road to Muxia Kickstarter project, which aims to raise an eye-popping $83,500!
In the interview, which was done a couple of months ago, Mark mentions he wants to raise $65,000. Since the interview, he has raised the bar. He realized that making a film is a lot more expensive than you can imagine!
I was the 2nd backer on Kickstarter. He's got a long way to go. Support him. If he doesn't raise $83,500, your credit card won't get charged.
In my 40th WanderLearn episode, I talked with Mark and his cousin, Ariel Jonotan Fernadez Arias, about El Camino. We discussed:
My article "10 Reasons Why El Camino de Santiago Sucks" has had 3 million views. It's an often misunderstood article. I support anyone who walks El Camino, including Mark Joseph.

Promoting Health Access SumbawaOne of WanderLearn's top patrons, Kathy Kennedy Enger, asked me to draw attention to Health Access Sumbawa. I am happy to promote this remarkable nonprofit. In 2014, Jack Kennedy founded the organization to bring malaria control and healthcare to remote, impoverished communities. It started on the remote island of Sumbawa, Indonesia. Since then, it's expanded thanks to generous donations. Visit their website to learn more and to donate: https://healthaccesssumbawa.org
