Nationalities walking the Camino

[Reggitano52]

Hi everyone.
I’m doing research on how many Spanish speaking, French speaking and Italian speaking individuals walk the Camino de Santiago.
I’m not simply inquiring about people from their own countries but people that speak their individual languages. Example: People from South and Central America or Mexico would be included in the Spanish speaking sector.
I’ve tried to find these stats but have not had any luck. Any thoughts on where I can find the info I’m looking for?
Many thanks.
Angelo

I don't think the pilgrim office or anywhere else records the language spoken by individual pilgrims. The nationalities are recorded on the pilgrim office Compostela statistics page. You could probably make a rough estimate based on those figures.

Hi Angelo,
You could maybe combine stats from the Pilgrim Office in Santiago by country and get a rough ballpark?

Anecdotally, one year in July 1 in 2 weeks we had people from 23 different countries at the busy little donativo albergue in Estella. In smaller albergues on less traveled routes we've had people from 12 countries or more in June or July in a 2 week period.
