About this audiobook

Years ago an overachieving and harried young mother accidentally flushed her gold watch down the toilet. Time passed, but the image of the lost watch continued to haunt her, a symbol of an overcommitted life. Two decades later, propelled by a series of curious coincidences, she leaves behind her busy professional life, her cell phone, and her family to escape the tyranny of time and walk five hundred miles across northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela.

Steps Out of Time brings the mysterious and wonderful world of the Camino to life with its tales of serendipitous encounters, new friends made (and one tragically lost), stunning natural beauty, and unforgettable food. By the end of her journey, an exhausted and exhilarated Katharine Soper is keenly aware that she has completed much more than a month-long walk.

    Honest and informative, a great insight into a normal person’s extraordinary journey.

    Honestly written, I guess. It's a straight timeline with some reflections. I found it difficult to relate to the author. I was doing ok with this book up to where she proudly posed for a photo with a matador before a bullfight. Also the spoken French and Australian accents are off-putting.

    I love the descriptions of the scenery, the colors. A story set about the Camino before it became the mob scene it is now. Well written, though I can’t relate to the author at all.
