    El Burgo Ranero November 2019

    Where the concept of presumption of innocence went? When we lost one of the pillars of democracy and freedom? Who will be the next one we will hang without trial? If the incident had been reported to the police, lets them do their job. Lets the judges apply the laws. If he is found guilty he...

    I was the peregrina that was assaulted close to Sacavem on Camino Portugues

    Don´t let this daunt you! You are a true pilgrim, what happened to you is inusual, a true case of bad luck. But look at it the rigth way: A very very small percentage of pilgrims suffered violence on the Camino. ( Maybe 1/500.000? ) No one suffered it twice. Statistically you are the safest...

    Couple fined for starting a fire in Finisterre

    Hi, Anemone. No, I have not heard any news about that, but according spanish laws probably they will be sentenced to prison. But nevertheless due the no voluntariness of the crime, I think they will not be imprisioned. A sad story.

    Couple fined for starting a fire in Finisterre

    I dont know how the hell does wrote that! Its could be dangerous both to burn clothes and to have a bath at Lagosteira beach. No a single word about the missing pilgrims in the beach? Nor a single world about the risk of fire? Insane!.
