Hi all,
I am collecting photographs of 3 special people on the Camino Frances.
Many pilgrims take photos of them but I'm sure these people don't often get to see them. I have started a small 'brag-book' type albumn for these three people to give to them in August when I walk the camino.

1) Felisa Rodriques or her daughter Maria Teodora. Felisa was the old [90 year-old] woman who sat under an umbrella outside her ramshackle farmhouse just outised Logrono with the sign "Aqua - Higos - Amor". She passed away in 2002 and her daughter Maria has continued sharing 'Love - Figs - water' and a sello to passing pilgrims.
2) Tomás Martínez de Paz (aka Tomas the Templar) of Manjarin.
3) Jesus Jato of Ave Fenix Albergue in Villafranca.

If you have any photos to share I'd be very grateful.

Pilgrim hugs,

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.
Thank you Javier.
I will add your picture to the album.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Hi Sil,
While researching different sites for my upcoming camino, I ran into the Brazilian "O Portal Peregrino" . They have a special "homenajem a D. Felisa de Logroño" showing photographs by several Brazilian pilgrims, and one of her seal, provided by Mike Smith from Australia.

I'm sure they won't mind your taking photos or establishing links to these, provided you given them credit, as to Mike Smith, I remember his name but not sure of which forum.

For whatever it's worth: here's the link: http://www.caminhodesantiago.com/ho...y camino April 25 from SJPdP! Buen camino!
 
Suggestion:

check out youtube.com, search: camino de santiago.

All kinds of videos will pop up, in good/bad taste.

Some have very nice stills.

Buen Camino :arrow:
