It’s worth pointing out that I didn’t write this memoir with anyone in mind, but as a challenge to myself to get it on...
Hi James - that is a very generous and unexpected offer! I f you are so inclined, I will leave that decision up to you. Maybe next time on the Camino you can pay it forward in your own way.
Buen Camino and Happy St Patrick's Day :)
