For those interested, the Oficina Peregrino has published its statistics for April

In April, 977 pilgrims arrived in Santiago. This is a significant increase compared to March, when there were only 194.
Not surprisingly, a majority was Spanish (783), of whom a majority was Galician (666).

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I don't know why but it is always fun to check the stats from the Pilgrim Office in Santiago. I realize it takes on more meaning now, wish it didn't but it does. Hopefully we will soon see in the coming months Pilgrim numbers going up, up, up and Covid numbers going down, down, down, and not just in Spain but everywhere.
