Diary 10 x 14 from my last year of pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela

Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. For the third time, I experience the feeling of being a pilgrim on the way.
Carrying only the essentials. Accepting the austere rules of pilgrim hostels. Setting out early in the morning and spending the whole day on the road. Encountering exactly what you need to encounter. Feeling deep gratitude. For a drinking fountain on a hot midday. For a cup of coffee offered by someone on the road. For a roof over my head in the rain… For being alive. I travel in stages, two weeks at a time each year, and after three years I will reach Santiago.
