Who and what determines a real pilgrim? Very curious!
Here is my answer. Who cares what anyone uses as a definition. What someone else thinks (in the immortal words of my Grandma) It's not your business. If someone tries to define me when I am on or off the camino, especially those who do not know me well or at all, I give them the standard answer that those of us from The Bronx know so well. You don't know S&#t about me, have no damn clue to what you are talking about and walk away. But the bottom line really is once again don't sweat it and just walk my friend.
