Dear Forum Members,

One year ago Paul and Masja from the Netherlands started our pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella from St Jean Pied de Port. We hoped to regain courage and strenght to continue our lives after the unexpected death of our 6-weeks old baby-boy Mats earlier in 2013. After 34 days walking we arrived in Santiago de Compostella and found out we were expecting a little brother or sister from Mats.
Our "Camino-Baby" Kaj Jakob (= James in Dutch) is now 3 months old! Mats will be in our hearts forever!
During our pilgrimage we made several friends. Unfortunately we never took any contact details of two friends with whom we had a very special evening together: our Irish Camino friend Norman and his Swedish friend Thomas. The last time we saw them was in Castrojeriz on May 25th 2013. We would like to share our happy news with them but so far have not yet succeeded in finding them. We hope there is any body who reads the forum who knows somebody...who knows somebody...who knows Norman and Tomas...and has contact details :).

Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
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.
