Wearing her Nia House bandana, Aria Sanchez-Jackson, 12 years old, hiked across northern Spain to the Santiago de Compestello cathedral.

This is a pilgrimage known as the Camino. 

By chance, within the same month this past summer, another Nia House alumni separately walked the historic and revered Camino de Santiago! Oliver, 14 years old, walked with his grandmother.

Here is what they shared about the experience.
