Happy Anniversary Pilgrim House!! I won't be there to mark the occasion, but you will be in my thoughts on the 23 July. You are my favorite place to relax in Santiago.

Congratulations Faith!!

I highly recommend that anyone on their way to Santiago...put the (free) Pilgrim House Welcome Center on the top of the list to visit.
Perfect place to rest and think back on your adventure.

Happy 10th anniversary to the Pilgrim House! My thanks to everything you and team do, @natefaith

(which includes helping me out with that tricky hiking pole that wouldn’t collapse, when I popped into the Pilgrim House last month after finishing the Norte )

Congratulations Pilgrim House - 10 years of fantastic service to pilgrims the world over. We have called in on 2 occasions when we have walked various pilgrim routes and the smiles and welcomes have always been warm. As pilgrims from Australia (DownUnder) we can highly recommend the movie "The Way, My Way" - it is funny and focuses as much on the walk as the characters who walk it. Based on a true story, and filmed with an Australian sense of humour, I'm sure you'll love it. For us it was a more realistic take on the Camino than the original film "The Way" with Martin Sheen. We'd love to be there to celebrate with you, but not this year.
Buen Camino to all those on the various paths, doing it "Your Way"

 

[Waka]

Congratulation on reaching your 10 year milestone, what you do for pilgrims is wonderful. Unfortunately I won't be in SDC until the end of October, so I'll visit then.

[henrythedog]

I had the great pleasure of meeting Faith a couple of years ago. I do regard the Pilgrim House as an exceptional place in Santiago and to have been there providing such a range of help and advice for ten years is a remarkable achievement.

Thank you.

Long may you continue to provide your warmth, kindness and generosity

Just a note, too, that though the birthday party is one of the highlights this week, we also have other debriefing/reflection events going on for these two weeks of the St James festivo. Feel free to share with those walking:

A very happy 10th birthday to you all at Pilgrim House. We remember our visit to you in 2015 - our last time walking the Camino. Enjoy the day and the celebrations!

Just saw this @chinacat ! Here's a taste of the party, courtesy of Michelle and Brian of Cruisin' with the Colemans : https://www.instagram.com/cruisinwiththecolemans/reel/C9xHt2moBOn/

It was a fun day - great to see friends and folks in town who could stop by, as well as newly-arrived pilgrims who could help eat all the food!

Yum!!
