Hello.

This blog is a document of my 1,900km pilgrimage to Rome from Canterbury along the Via Francigena in 2018.

Pilgrim Badge from Canterbury depicting Thomas Becket

On this site you’ll find:

About – a couple of pages where I’ve written a very short history of the Francigena and an even shorter explanation of myself.

Diary – a record of the trip.

Thoughts – notes of tangential relevance to the actual walk.

Contact – where you can say hi if you don’t already have my phone number. Not to be used by my mother.

Pilgrim Badge depicting St Peter and St Paul, probably from Rome

Although I am interested in researching the Francigena in a moderately academic way I won’t have the resources or energy to provide comprehensive footnotes or references to most of my posts. If I’ve got something wrong please let me know so I can correct it. If you’d like to learn more also get in touch and I can share my reading lists with you.
