May 23rd - More Pictures - The People We Meet







A most important ingredient of the Camino is the contact with people. People whom we would otherwise never know. People who are on the Camino for all manner of reasons.

Bryan, from Birmingham, is a healer, a practitioner of reikai (I may not have the term spelled correctly). Reikai is the art of laying hands on people and improving their well being. This was Bryan´s second time to walk the Camino. He had developed the practice of arranging stones in the shape of a heart. Over the following days we found four or five of his messages along the trail.






John, from London, had walked the Camino. He was now retired and had returned to the Camino to give back. From his trailer we he moved to different locations along the trail, he would administer first aid or coffee or both.
