Today I finished walking 500km from Burgos to Santiago on the Camino over the past 22 days.

The feeling is bittersweet. Only if you have walked the Camino yourself will you truly understand that feeling. For weeks your life becomes so simple — wake up, walk, eat, sleep, repeat. And then suddenly, it’s over.

Why did I do it?

I did it for healing. Healing from mold illness, spiritually, and honestly because I wanted my head to become quiet for a while. The Camino was incredibly good for that. It’s amazing how you enter almost a meditative state while walking 6–9 hours every day.

While walking, you absorb the beauty around you — the tiny villages, old churches, forests, mountains, wildflowers and endless trails — but at the same time, you also sort through your life. Somehow, while walking, things become clearer. You think about relationships, parenting, business, pressure, stress, faith, and how you want to handle situations differently going forward.

I listened to three audiobooks and countless podcasts while walking, which I loved. I spent hours thinking about running a business, being a parent, health, purpose and life itself. I even dreamt up a new business idea…💪

And then, while I was walking through Spain, one of the biggest floods in our area’s history hit back home in Wolseley.

Even the flood and all the damage cannot upset me deeply right now. I am simply grateful that my family, our staff, and our community are alive and safe. The rest can be rebuilt. In fact, it will take a month or two of really hard work and then everything will operate as normal again — without even missing our Spring crop.

All the dahlia clumps are safe and sound, still in the ground, and there was no damage done to them. Hallelujah!

Yes, we had damage. But in many ways, it was also the perfect timing for this to happen. We still have enough time before Spring to rebuild everything properly and continue with our season almost as if nothing happened.

We will simply work a ALOT harder through winter this year. No long holidays.

And maybe that is the real lesson of the Camino:

Just keep walking.

Step by step.

Eventually you arrive.

FLOOD in Wolseley 💔

Being in Spain walking the Camino while the biggest flood in Wolseley’s history unfolded back home has been incredibly hard. I think it would have still been manageable if I had contact with my family and knew what was happening, but the electricity was off and there was no reception. For almost 3 days they were completely cut off from the world and I had no idea if they were safe.

On Monday, during the second day of rain, the river burst its wall and created what looked like a “second river” flowing directly toward our home, offices and a piece of our flower farm. Luckily our house sits slightly higher on a small hill, but by then our garden already looked like one giant swimming pool.

Andrew realised there was a real possibility that the water could move through our home, so they evacuated to our office building, which has a second floor. Andrew slept on a camping chair, Samuel on a desk, and all the doggies on the floor around them.

During the night the “second river” intensified and swept straight through the Platvlei staff houses, through our main greenhouse with half of our anemone and Italian ranunculus crop and through parts of the farm infrastructure. The dam wall also broke, taking down netting in its path and the road to our farm completely washed away.

Meanwhile I was still walking in Spain, with stress levels honestly at 10/10, not knowing whether my family, dogs, staff, and everyone on the farm were okay.

And at the end of it all, that truly is what matters most.

The destruction is beyond belief. But everyone is alive. And everything else can be rebuilt ❤️ Just a note - ALL dahlia netts are fine and dahlia clumps are SAFE. This is just a small part of our farm that’s been wiped - we will be fine ❤️

Our trucks currently still can’t leave the farm because there is literally no road 🤭 — but we’ve already made another plan to get flowers to our shops and the shops will be filled again today 🌸

Please follow from Wolseley - you can donate through him to rebuilt our community. There’s 100’s of staff houses where the water went a meter+ high through their houses and they lost everything. 💔😩
