Can a modern pilgrim indulge in luggage transfers, private rooms, and really good food? Emma with Posh Pilgrims thinks so. That’s why she began encouraging other pilgrims to walk the Camino their way—even if that includes “a little extra luxury.” When she’s not walking the Camino, Emma calls Brisbane, Australia, home.
