Yes! I’m back in Santiago de Compostela after walking the Leon to Sairra stage on the Camino Frances. What an amazing journey! I last visited Santiago a couple of weeks ago after completing the Portuguese Spiritual route and the city was very quiet. At that time, the rain poured down for most of my visit […]
Camino De Santiago. This Is Home.
