  On my first Camino the monk who showed me into the Samos refugio told me that the only water was a tap in the street and there was no toilet - he pointed to some trees across the road and told me to use those if necessary. On the previous night...

  I remember my very first camino, in 1998, when I walked the length of France and found my first pilgrim refugio at Gradignon, south of Bordeaux. Upon arriving in Spain, I was astonished to discover that the typical cost of a night in a...

  At the suggestion of a forum member yesterday, I submitted a comment to The Guardian that questioned some of the statements and choice of vocabulary for consistency with their journalistic standards. I mentioned the case you referred to, and I...

  I think that there is a huge disconnect between those who focus on this issue primarily as one of a woman’s right to be free from harassment and those who see it as an issue of how to best cope with the fact that whether we like it or not women...

  I've been reading much about this article on many groups, including this one. I've been left bothered and angry but some of the responses; and those feelings bother me. I love walking the camino. It's an amazing life changing experience. But I...
