Moonlight over Galicia

Night walking caution

Key moment: Time math failed us—coffee too long, photos too many, knees too honest. Dusk arrived before the albergue did.

1. We clicked on lights and became soft constellations on a lane. Frogs argued in ditches; stars multiplied above eucalyptus.

2. Fear visited—cars, ankles, imagination. We walked close, spoke steadily, checked maps twice. Night walking is not a badge; it is a last resort we survived.

3. A car slowed wide; driver waved. Small mercies stacked.

Arrival tasted like soup and relief. We promised not to romanticise recklessness; we also would not forget the moon’s face on wet leaves.

If night finds you, group up, light up, slow down. Beauty pairs with vigilance; both belong in the story.
