English Language Broadcast - 'The Way': An Irish journey on El Camino de Santiago - 14/08/25
Manage episode 500202721 series 1778711
The Camino de Santiago, or the Way of St. James, is undoubtedly the most popular pilgrimage in our country. Every year, thousands of people embark on the journey that culminates in Santiago de Compostela, in the northern region of Galicia. Their motivations differ, some do it out of religious convictions, others are fulfilling a promise, others look to make a wish before the Saint, and others are just looking to find themselves... The book "The Way" follows an Irishman who seeks refuge in Spain by walking El Camino de Santiago, and at the same time he remembers his days in Ireland during The Troubles. This book was published by Ybernia and written by Dermot Miller, who joined us to tell us all about it!
Also in this broadcast, we learn about the worries and concerns of the neighbours of Valdebebas, in the north of Madrid, due to the construction of what is to become Madrid's Formula 1 circuit. Francisco Reinaldo, from the platform Stop F1 Madrid, tells us more.
