John & me

Join our full-service guided tour of the Basque Country and let us pamper you!
Today I meet John Brierley. He published his first book in 2004. I published this site the same year.

We have a few things in common.

Was great meeting him!

Bet you had lots of interesting things to discuss ,very pleased you had a rewarding time together.
 
Ivar and me.. :) When I arrived in Santiago some time ago, I (nearly) accidentally went past Ivar's office. Of course I rang the doorbell and voila, there he was! So nice to meet him and thank him for this splendid forum and so nice to have a conversation in Norwegian. Hyggelig å møte deg, Ivar! Tulle.

Kudos to both of you for all you have done, over the past decade, to take stress out of the Camino experience, so we pilgrims can focus on the spiritual aspects of the journey rather than worrying about whether we packed right, will be able to stay on the path and will land a bed for the night. Many thanks, Ivar and John! Here's to the next ten years!!
 
I would have loved to have been sat quietly in a corner while this was going on. A pity JW wasn't there too.
