    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The Camino de Santiago are a cultural itinerary worldwide and is covered by thousands of pilgrims every year who come from all over the world, from our humble host house to donation we offer pilgrims accommodation and dinner and breakfast, as well as we wash and dry the clothes within a friendly framework and with all the love that pilgrims deserve. The opportunity to meet many people from different countries and cultures is always present in our house. All this is accentuated in the summer season when the number of pilgrims is greater, during the winter we dedicate ourselves to improving and maintaining the facilities in good condition and preparing new spaces for the pilgrims in the house and the surroundings (garden and common areas) So the work of the helpers varies a lot in summer or winter, our priority is the well-being of the pilgrims if there are any, and if not, then we dedicate ourselves to other tasks. For practical reasons we do not welcome vegetarians or vegans, here we all eat everything.

    El camino de Santiago es un itinerario cultural a nivel mundial y lo recorren cada año miles de peregrinos que vienen de todos los rincones del mundo, desde nuestra humilde casa de acogida a donativo les ofrecemos a los peregrinos el alojamiento y la cena y el desayuno, así como le lavamos y secamos la ropa dentro de un marco amable y con todo el cariño que los peregrinos se merecen. La oportunidad de conocer mucha gente de diferentes países y culturas siempre está presente en nuestra casa. Todo esto se ve acentuado en la temporada de verano cuando el paso de peregrinos es mayor, durante el invierno nos dedicamos a mejorar y mantener las instalaciones en condiciones y a preparar espacios nuevos para los peregrinos en la casa y los alrededores (jardín y zonas comunes) así que el trabajo de los voluntarios varía mucho en verano o invierno, nuestra prioridad es el bienestar de los peregrinos si los hay, y si no, pues nos dedicamos a otras tareas. Por motivos prácticos no acogemos vegetarianos ni veganos, aquí todos comemos de todo.
