    Shantiago - a Camino song in shanty style

    Google, Somewhere Along the Way, by the Aussie singer, Dan Mullins. My Wife and I were lucky to spend some time with him and some of his Family on our Camino in 2022. Once that song gets in your head it’ll stay with you. We can’t wait to get back out on The Way.

    What to carry in my wallet

    We just used one card. A travel card that you can load up with whichever currency you want. You can top it up whenever you want. Then, we’d use that or, in the rare event that cards were not used, we’d take out cash (perhaps a hundred or so). Cost only a couple of Euros to use an ATM.

    Kindness of pilgrims

    What goes around comes around. This is what my Wife and I found. We gave help willingly and we also received help. If only the whole world were like this.
