    October 12th, National Holiday

    I've just checked - all being well, I'll be in Salamanca that day ...

    Should we give recommendations on the forum?

    That's a very insightful comment. I hadn't given much thought to the impact of AI on online reviews, but of course that makes sense. In my case, I used to be an avid user of TripAdvisor, but whether it's the pandemic or something else, I sense that that's rather in it's heyday as a source of...

    John Brierley is seriously ill - an invitation to send messages of thanks and support.

    Dear John, My very first dog-eared and somewhat rain-damaged guide from several years ago still sits proudly on my bookshelf alongside its more pristine cousins. That guide was indispensable - the care and attention which had gone into it was obvious, and, like others have said, I thank you...

    For introvert crowd-averse pilgrims

    Interesting discussion, although I think that it rather drifted away from what @vwzoo was originally saying. Unless one has quite strong introvert tendencies themselves, one is unlikely to be able to appreciate the full extent of the "dread" that can fill you when you are almost obliged to...

    An Atheist Embraces the Camino

    What a wonderful thread, and thank you @BombayBill for starting it. I have trouble with labels (and the judgement which people attach to them), and after a lot of thought, upon my return from the Camino in 2015 I described myself as a "non-believer", that being a softer and I thought more...

    Pilgrim "customs"?

    Ahh, I missed this post. So, my "good luck" above should now become "well done". Like others, I'd be interested in watching, if you're happy to share the link (or you can send it privately by message if you don't want to be too "out there").

    Pilgrim "customs"?

    A good collection of "customs" @trecile, and good luck with the presentation. I am not a "religious" person, but try to act/think of myself as a "spiritual" person, and I spent quite a lot of time both during and after my first Camino struggling with the idea of being a "true" pilgrim, which is...
