      Glenshiro reacted to Tincatinker's post in the thread Fear versus Reality with Like Like.
      My first “Camino” was a deliberate and conscious pilgrimage to the bones of one who may have stood with the divine. In the 6 bed couchette on the way south from Paris one of a group of four young Germans asked “why are you going to Spain?” I...

      I take a heating coil and a lightweight titanium mug together with a supply of teabags and instant coffee and chocolate. I mainly stay in cheap hotels (not that there's any other kind in most of rural Spain) and can't really start the day without...
