Need to find pilgrims Helen and Marina from May 2007 Camino!

Hey all! I haven't been here in a while, but I thought that maybe someone could help me.

I walked the Camino Frances from April 23-May 28 2007, and I very much would like to find two pilgrims (who I met separately) that I met, and I've since lost their contact information. Any ideas as to how to find them would be very meaningful!

Helen is from Brazil (I think), but has also lived in the US and in Italy and speaks about every European language. She's maybe about 40 years old, and has walked the Camino more than once. I think I met her originally at the Brazilian Albergue, where she was a temporary hospitalera. She's pretty tall.

Marina is from Spain, a bit southeast of the Camino Frances, and speaks only Spanish. She's probably in her late 20's, and was walking at least at the end with her girlfriend Isabella. She's pretty short. I met her in Burgos.

I know that isn't much to go on..... I have photos of each of them somewhere, and if someone knows how to get in touch with either of them, or ideas, I would be forever grateful. Both of them helped me to meet and connect with my soon-to-be husband, who I met on the Camino.

Thanks!

Hi,

There's a "Marina" between Grañon and Burgos working as hospitalera, but I'm afraid I don't know how old is she. Some friends of mine know her but I've never had the opportunity of meeting her.

Buen Camino,

Do you know of a way I can contact her to see if she is my friend? Thanks!

Hi Fiddletree

Possibly she is the Marina I was talking about, but neither my nor my friends have a way to contact her. She may be in her early thirties.

Buen Camino,
