A new Centre for World Peace on the Camino

I find myself writing this at 11am on 11/11 - seems like a good time to be introducing a new centre for world peace on the Camino Frances.

We were walking the route in May 2006 when my wife Linda had a vision of a new pilgrim healing centre in a traditional Galician house in what was, and still is, a ruin. We returned to look at it in the July, and came back in the September and bought it. Since then we have been mulling over plans which have now at last gone in for official approval. We have been given an opening date - 25th July 2008 - so things will have to get a move on in the New Year.

I think this site is so alive! Well done Ivar and everybody.

Lots of good wishes from Charles
