(I'm not sure what forum this belongs in, so feel free to move it.) EdX and Coursera are offering three free online courses about medieval Spain this spring that might be of interest to those walking caminos. All the courses can be taken online at any time of day the fits your own personal schedule. I’ve taken one of the courses in this series before and found it very interesting. At the end of the course you have the experience of translating actual medieval documents.
