This photo was taken by Ohio man Michael Matynka in the Boavista Cafe in Boavista/Ferrerios between Sarria and Portomarin. We are about 25 days into our walk and we're quite smelly and dirty. I love the honesty and integrity of this photo. Please drop by and offer him your support. We paid €10 for this photo - well worth the money!
I hasten to add that I have no financial or personal connection to this project.
