Not sure whether I am posting this in the correct place. Editor/moderators: please feel free to relocate this post where appropriate.
I downloaded Lorena's book onto my Kindle recently. Unfortunately, for me at least, it is a book of poetry and in Spanish. My Spanish is not up to much at the best of times and certainly not up to reading poetry. So I can't review it, however:
I met Lorena on my recent Camino de Madrid in Tamariz de Campos, where she and her husband David run the albergue and the bar. They are from Uruguay and have settled in Tamariz. Both have been and are pilgrims on the Camino. So enthusiastic and friendly are they that, even though I was just passing through, they opened up the bar for this thirsty walker (and had done so less than a hour previously for two other walkers). David is also the village factotum.
I had a quick look at the albergue. It is small but clean and tidy and apparently the only albergue on the Camino de Madrid that is within a church building. I think I'm right in saying that food is also available in the bar.
I got a really good vibe from Lorena and David, the albergue and Tamariz with its ruined church of St John The Baptist and storks nests.
