Devastating.
What woman elects to go on pilgrimage today, alone, separated from a group, in any country? Even small groups are in danger, man or woman, but this.. alone? In Spain?
There are always dreamers, but they are definitely getting themselves thinned out.
A pilgrimage ends horribly.
“The Way” movie will never be the same.
I want to walk the Camino de Santiago...
“The public prosecutor is asking for 25 years of imprisonment for Muñoz, 20 years for homicide and 5 years for theft with violence.”
20 years for homicide.
Europe is sick.
I walked it alone at 65 a couple of months after Denise’s’ disappearance. Pilgrims, especially the American, were very protective of each other. The Spanish people who run the small inns, stores and restaurants were also protective of us. I walked with others at times and at times alone and always had situational awareness and an escape plan. I walked my mind clear from work into retirement 500 miles on my own for over a month. One of the best experiences of my life. Buen Camino.
