    It’s happening in 2022!

    I received the confirmation this week and I will be volunteering for a week at the office in SJPP at the end of June. After that, I will be off to Santiago by the Camino Francés for a second time. Can’t wait! I have been waiting for 2 years to finally go back. Woohoo 🥳!

    When does the Pilgrim Office in SJPP open?

    Does the official office to get my Camino passport open early in the day or like alberques only after two? So my real question is what are the working open hours of the Camino office in St. Jean?
