This is a wonderful story of six strangers who became friends...and then family. Kevin from the US; Maria from Argentina; Irina from Russia, now in Canada; Javier and Adrian from Valencia in Spain; and Volker from Germany.

There are no strangers on the Camino, just friends you haven't met. If you're lucky, you'll form friendships to last for years. A Camino family.

Enjoy this journey of shared enthusiasm and love.
