This June I made the detour to see Flores del Camino. I had heard about their interesting workshops and stopped in and met Basia who was nice enough to take time out and talk a bit about their home and art work (that alone is worth a visit!). The lemon water was also much appreciated! She mentioned that they were going to take on the management of the local albergue. I wish them much luck.
