Paraplegic and walking with crutches.....

PilgrimPillar

Rota Vicentina, fisherman’s trail, is sweet...
Time of past OR future Camino
Please come with
suggestions….
Thx….!!
In May/June 2016 I walked upon a 25-30 year old guy walking Frances with a handicap.

From memory he took around 10 steps supported by two crutches before pausing for a second.

I was blown away by his willpower and stamina.

From what I remember he successfully arrived Santiago and there was a YouTube video on his arrival.

Anyone remembering his name?

Is there a link to the video possibly??

Much obliged for any tip/help given in my direction🙏🏼

Update: further queries suggest that the pilgrim in 2016 using crutches was named Daniel.
