Pilgrim'S Guide to the Camino Portugues

John Brierley was born in Aries on 2nd April 1948. Educated and qualified as a Chartered Surveyor in Dublin where he commenced practice under his own name in 1971. An existential crisis took him to Findhorn in Scotland in 1987 as part of a mid-career break. This was to prove a pivotal time in his life with a reordering of priorities towards a spiritual perspective. In 1996 he convened the international conference Business for Life where the core issue was identified as the crisis of the human spirit. The idea of Business sabbaticals as an antidote to burn out and pilgrimage as a way to reappraise life's purpose became his abiding passion. He is the author of A Pilgrim's Guide to Camino Fisterra and A Pilgrim's Guide to the Camino Frances.
