    1765 map of camino real in gipuzkoa

    during my research about via bayona I came upon this thesis - I'm not sure what the actual title is, actually -, but on pages 32 and 33 is a beautiful map drawn in 1765 which shows the entire Camino Real de Coches in gipuzkoa. it shows both the old route via tunél de san adrián and the new route...

    caminka's voie de la nive in 2022

    six weeks wasn't enough camino yet, so I decided to go a bit closer to home and do two parts in france that I hadn't done before. they also neatly connected my various previous caminos so now I can say that I have walked from mediterranean to the atlantic. ;-) voie de la nive was a bit of a...

    Diego de Guzman on Camino de Invierno in 1610

    As I was in Santiago a day before my birthday this year, I was looking for a fitting gift for myself.

    crucero del santo cristo in molinaseca

    years back, I came across an article about an excavation beneath this (more) modern cross at the end of calle real in molinaseca. the article said that beneath the cross a monolith (possibly a menhir) was buried. this would probably be a unique definite reference of a cross replacing an earlier...

    character and time limitations on private messages

    this was new. I just had to write 13 tiny answers (420 characters limitation pretty much amounts to one sentence) to a question to a private message and had to wait 25 seconds to post each of the answers. I really felt rather ridiculous. anyone else experiencing this? a glitch?
