I have so many stories it would take hours to tell them all, and there are SO many people who serve the Pilgrims and the Camino.
Some who come to mind include Rebekkah of Moratinos, Marina at San Anton, the pharmacist who cleaned and wrapped Joe's injury Trinidad de Arre, Livia and her husband at Piedra in Villafranca, Sara and Unai at Los Arcos, Noemi and her wonderful family that runs Albergue Ultreia in Portomarin, Jose in Viana and Jose in Zubiri, Juta (spelling?) at San Saturnino, Freida at Hospital de Orbigo, Cristina at Rabanal, and sooooo many others! I've seen each one of them go out of their way for pilgrims and for the Camino.
Here is a story that may or may not fit in here.
On our first Camino, we learned many many lessons, but here is one.
We stayed at Manjarin.
It was one of the best experiences of my Camino life.
As we were eating our pilgrim family style dinner, a young man showed up.
He was barefoot and carrying a VERY small pack.
He did not speak.
My first thought was "What a strange guy!"
That was my judgemental side showing itself.
Tomas the Templar quickly understood, however.
He gently invited the young man to sit at the table.
He brought him a plate and cup and silverware and served him.
Turns out the fellow was walking in silence and personal austerity.
Tomas, who has served pilgrims for so many years, recognized this - we did not until we were told.
There are just too many to mention.
