The Camino is unique and sacred everybody knows that before they start. But it is special in more ways than you can imagine, the great Cathedrals, the towering mountains, the riot of colour across the landscape but above all the Pilgrims of the Camino are special. Pilgrims come in all shapes and sizes and from all backgrounds, there is no such thing as "ordinary folks." I met the old and the very young, pacifists and soldiers, bankers and scientists, professors and students, the great and the good and the not so good. All of them with a tale, if you have time to listen.
