The Via de la Plata was calling us….! Several years ago we completed a long, arduous and complicated pagan pilgrimage over the course of two summers.

On that journey, as we sat at the ‘End of the World’ – on a promontory … Continue reading Pilgrimage From Cadiz to Santiago
We arrived on St Marys, the chief island of the Scillies. A long hill took us up through a bell-towered gateway onto The Garrison. Where a wonderful, though expensive campsite awaited us.

After being lulled into a false sense of undulation by the easy crossing from England, and the lollop along to Newport, things started to look acclivitous… The problem is the valleys – my husband, being a valley boyo from Bedwas, could of warned me.
