At first I want to apologize to post this so late.
I was on the caminho francês mainly on October 2018. On October 13rd, I was passing through Población de Campos. On the vilage exit there was a bifurcation on the caminho and right on the bifurcation there were a man (seemed to have around 65 years old) yelling about which road to take. He called me and I went to him to check what he wanted to tell me.
He asked me where I was going, told me about stoping in some nice place (I don't remember which place it is). As he had a hoarse voice I come closer to hear better. In the end, he tried to kissed me. At that moment I was terrified and just run away from him and took the road that looked easier at the moment for me.
The man did not tried to reach me but I was really frightened specially because there was nobody around. As I took the alternative road I walked for 5km and did not see anyone and it was really frightened for me.
Now, that I am not in the camino, I would say that I could get rid of him with my walking stick. But in the moment the only thing I could think of was to run away.
Please be aware of this.
