Efren's videos are awesome but he did not walk the Vie Francigene del Sud. He walked south from England to Rome, not south from Rome towards Jerusalem.

Well at this point every reopening situation is speculative and we are all at the mercy of the virus but seeing as I'm supposed to restart my pilgrimage from Martingny about Sept 1st, I need options. If I can't restart this year, I'll finish it when I can but I'll be going somewhere so I need...
