i had a friend who went to Spain and she did this thing where a whole group of people walked from one side of Spain to the other, and they stayed in Nun Convents to sleep. Its takes 3 months to walk from one side to the other and at the end you get blessed by a buddist monk?  Just wanted to know if anyone has ever heard of this or done it? ? i thried lookingit up on the net but i souldnt find anything about it? |
