Margaret Butterworth replied to the thread Sexual harassment on Camino routes.I have walked many times on various Caminos. I prefer to walk alone, at my own pace.

Margaret Butterworth reacted to Rebekah Scott's post in the thread Albergue in Canfranc is closed with
Like.

Margaret Butterworth replied to the thread Albergues off the path.Yes, San Bol is clearly visible to the left of the Camino, only about 100 m away. You can't miss it! When I last passed by, there was no-one in, but it was not locked up so I had a quick look around. Everything was neat and tidy. I presumed that...
