Documental de Paulo Coelho sobre su experiencia en el Camino

Os presentamos un documental en inglés subtitulado en español sobre la experiencia de Paulo Coelho en su recorrido por el Camino de Santiago.

A good documentary, El Camino a Santiago, follows Paulo Coelho’s return to Spain. The Camino is a special place for the author, if it was during his Camino that he realized his dream was to become a writer. There is also an epic version of Paulo singing Frank Sinatra’s song “My Way.” The full 42 minute video is on Youtube:

Esperamos que lo disfrutéis.

Sun, Sea, Sand… & Cider: Take Me To Asturias!

Known as “the white town on the green coast”, Luarca is another attractive fishing village of white-washed houses on the Asturian coastline, but this time considerably bigger than Cudillero with a bit more to see. For me the most fascinating place was the historic slate table in the fisherman’s quarter where the sailors would meet each day. 

On mornings when the weather was particularly rough they would cast a vote on whether they should set sail that day, or stay at home, by placing a token into either a model ship or a model house. If more tokens were placed in the boat, off they sailed, more in the house and it was deemed safer to stay at home – fishing after all can be a dangerous business in these storm-filled waters. 

This was an early example of micro-democracy in action and indeed the community-minded locals also provided for the widows of dead seamen, by reserving them their fair share of any catch. Aside from learning about these old traditions I also loved the seaside cemetery, with its gleaming white gravestones overlooking the Atlantic, and the port itself was fun to spend some time in, with colourful boats moored to the quay and several bars full of a young people (watching Euro 2016 at the time of my visit).
