      Yes - 100% agree with this. I just refer to it as a ‘walking trip’. I am not religious or spiritual so for me to regard it as a pilgrimage and myself as a pilgrim would sound a bit daft, and my friends would smile at me. I am a deep thinker and...

      Antonius Vaessen reacted to SabsP's post in the thread Pilgrimage or vacation? with Like Like.
      Both. Regular holidays for me and a pilgrimage. Then again I do not give a toss how others perceive my Caminos. The whole discussion about " tourist / true pilgrim " is so boring. I wrote it already here on other threads. I met many so called...

      After the terrible few kilometers along a busy road and dangerous crossings, we got on the path to Guillena. After a few hundred meters we got to the bifurcation: the road to the right avoids the crossing of the Arroyo de las Molinas. Because...

      I walked today from Sevilla to Guillena. On leaving Sevilla, we took the path Aling the rivier. It was no problem at all, not a single pool of water on the trail, no mud at all. It was beautifull with many flowers.
