Like.
When I walked the VDLP in 2018 my recollection is that there were more men than women but not by a lot. There was also a nice mix of ages. A 40-ish gentleman with his 10-year old son, young post-college types, middle-aged couples and retirees... -

Roughly, I've seen a bit more than 20 pilgrims this year, 8 of which were female but I might have miscounted as this is from memory. Ages fairly mixed. But yeah, sample size is small, if I hadnt briefly met a mother walking with her two...

JustJack reacted to geraldkelly's post in the thread Demographic of VDLP pilgrim in recent years with Like.
When I first walked the Via (Seville to Merida) I didn't meet a single pilgrim. Next time (Seville to Astorga) I met 3 German guys, all in their 50s. Recently it's gotten more diverse, different nationalities and more women, but still older and...

JustJack posted the thread Demographic of VDLP pilgrim in recent years in 🇪🇸 VÍA DE LA PLATA & Sanabrés (from Sevilla).I’ve read in a few places that the typical pilgrim on the VDLP is an older European man.

JustJack replied to the thread A shout out to el pimiento de Padrón.I bought them perhaps 4 or 5 times, in bars or cheap restaurants. Once in O Cebrerio I remember.

JustJack posted the thread A shout out to el pimiento de Padrón in Life on the Camino - Miscellaneous Topics.I remember seeing this dish in a travel video a few years before I walked the CF. It looked delicious, and I finally started to find them at bars and restaurants a couple weeks into my walk. Those specific peppers are difficult to find here in...

Hi, I departed from Sevilla this morning, sunday 24. I am staying at the Luz del Camino tonight. Yesterday 10 pilgrims stayed over here and 10 tonight, which looks a good score for the VDLP. I took the new route with the bridges on the right...

JustJack replied to the thread The Way, My Way - the movie.The director made it clear in his interview with Dan Mullins that this is a film that needs to be seen on the big screen. I just hope I have the opportunity, as getting distribution in cinemas is not easy. I think it does have the potential to be...

JustJack posted the thread The Way, My Way - the movie in Life on the Camino - Miscellaneous Topics.I just saw the trailer for the movie The Way, My Way, and it looks great. Trailer says it will be in theatres May 16. Hoping it makes it to a theatre where I live. I’d love the opportunity to see a Camino movie on the big screen. The movie also...
