[QUOTE="peregrino_tom, post: 139111, member: 4307"] Off topic? Four of us from different parts of the charity sector used to meet up on a regular basis for business meetings. At one of them one of my colleagues announced that he wouldn't be at the next meeting - or any of the subsequent ones - as he was leaving his job to go to Paris to walk to Santiago de Compostela. I had no idea what he was talking about. About 18 months later I had a contract that came to an end and nothing to follow it. And for various reasons I felt I needed a break. A few days before the contract finished at the end of October I looked up Santiago on the web and then bought the Brierley guidebook in Stanfords. On the cold wet night of Friday November 7th 2008 I arrived in St Jean, and the rest as they say... When I came back I traced my old colleague on Facebook. He was working for an NGO in Bangladesh. I'd thought about him several times along the Way and I wanted to thank him for inspiring me and swap experiences. But it turned out that he'd walked as far as the Spanish border and then stopped :) [/QUOTE]
