    Restaurante Galicia in Baamonde

    If you search on YouTube for "Xoán Corral" some videos of him appear. Even a mini report on the Galician Restaurant after his death, as a tribute. What happens is that the audio is Spanish.

    LIVE from the Camino BP on the Invierno July 2021 AND July 2022: Practical info
