"The Journey: A Guide for the Modern Pilgrim" by María Ruiz and Michael Scaperlanda is a comprehensive resource for those seeking to understand and live a pilgrim life. The book combines practical advice with personal reflection and stories from their extensive travels, including a European pilgrimage undertaken with their children in the Catholic Church's Jubilee Year 2000. It encourages readers to consider the difference between being a tourist and a pilgrim, offering guidance on how to transform vacations and tourism into a journey of pilgrimage. The authors draw on their own experiences of consecrated travel to guide readers into the heart of the pilgrim experience, addressing questions such as the most promising pilgrimage destinations and how to go on pilgrimage as a family.
