<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCaminho Couple <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A woman sleeps at our place and she tells us her husband also walks the caminho. They call each other every day to exchange how it was and where they stay. Sometimes, they booked the same accommodation! At our place she slept alone in our casinha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One day I had a friend over and two pilgrims wanted to drink some coffee. After a little chat I told them I had to go inside to my visitor. No problem. After their break they knocked on the door, and asked if I have jars of jam for sale… Hmm, yes, I showed him all jars on te table, and he like the small jar which could fit in his bag.

They slept outside when they were tired and then suddenly it was almost getting dark… At 20:00 they knocked on our door. Of course you can stay the night, but we already finished dinner.

Blind Pilgrim<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When she returned I saw that she was holding him, and they walked slowly to our patio. They walked more caminhos already. This one was the last one, the woman told us. Because her husband is blind now, and she helps him. But it was very heavy unlike all their other caminhos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
