    The Pilgrim’s Guide to Etiquette

    The « Buen Camino » or « Bon chemin » that I heard all the way to Sarria from France was limited from there.

    The Pilgrim’s Guide to Etiquette

    One of the first things that I would highly recommend is learning A FEW Words of Spanish. I was astounded at teaching some Americans and French persons the inability to use words like, Hola, Buen Camino, Gracias, Desculpe, and simple words of Spanish.

    Impact of Paris Olympics 2024

    I would stay away from Paris during the Olympics and if you can, use Barcelona and/Madrid to fly to Europe. I will be in Paris next month and will be able to see first hand what Parisians are saying. I do know that prices of hotels, lodging have risen significantly. A new metro will start...

    Are you a hiker or a walker?

    I would equate walking with moving one’s body on a relatively flat and short surface while hiking, IMHO, would have to do with duration and various different terrain.
