Dave Whitson is a 40-something high school history teacher and Camino de Santiago guidebook author who has crossed the United States on foot, spent six of the past twelve months traversing Italy, and taken countless student groups on long-distance walking adventures. He has no phone plan, gym membership, or anything resembling a vice. He writes powerful travel narratives, adores the challenge of working with sharp teenagers, struggles with relationships, thinks frequently about death, considers himself a sort of “parasite” on conventional society, and knows more about the Camino (and other modern pilgrimage routes) than pretty much anyone on earth.
