Time of past OR future Camino

Frances Burgos toSdC March/April 2016
W. Highland Way August 2016
Camino Somewhere September 2017
I met a young Italian woman while on Camino Frances from 17 March through 3 April. The last time I saw her, she was with her dog in Santiago.

The young woman told me her name--Barbara--and I also know her last name, but out of respect to her will certainly not post it online.

Her dog's name is Ruben, and Ruben, a small yellow lab mix, was the most charming dog.

I ran into Barbara and Ruben throughout walking from Burgos through Santiago, and they were both so sweet.

The problem: she told me her Facebook details, but I'm not finding her. I have lots of photos of her and her sweet pup. Anyone have any information about this sweet person? I'd love to get her photos to her.
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Deb as you know I don't have any info for you but it is always a bit sad when we haven't written down all the info we need or worse when we loose the info. Something for those behind us to try hard to keep the info for future contact.

She told me exactly how to find her, but it did not work, perhaps because we are in different countries. Another issue is that there are thousands of names similar to hers! It was worth a try! I will keep looking for her, and let's see if I can't track this sweet young lady down.

I was able to find a pilgrim by typing Google France & his name, city he lives in.
 
You're so kind to help, Keith! I am still trying....
