Like.
I think that the VdlP attracts a fairly high percentage of solitaries like myself. People who are happier on their own. I often enjoy my random meetings with other pilgrims while walking but I do not seek them out. I would not actively avoid... -
jflorez replied to the thread Declining numbers recorded on the Via de la Plata.Agreed,. Any socially adept person should be able to discover rather quickly if someone prefers to not be bothered.

"This is a really weird post, frankly." Just to say to the OP that I enjoyed it and I didn't think it was weird. I suspect that many of the less vocal, not so say censorious, Forum readers enjoyed it also. Keep posting amigo. ☘️
