PSY Iba pilgrim and we danced “Gangnam style”. What a treat!
Postings that here I have, is clearly not going to win friends. But I think it's important to leave written, mostly to share with other volunteers hospitaleros, past and future.
And also for anyone interested in this very special submundillo the Camino de Santiago. In this case at its sewer, it also has, like everything made by people, and therefore with our glories and miseries.
Pero a ese temita vuelvo luego. Dos partes tiene esta historia, pues bipolar fue también la experiencia.

Ser hospitalero voluntario is to be the person responsible for the hostel for pilgrims, warmly welcome you, enroll, accommodate, answer your questions, solve problems arising, keep the hostel clean and fit, by organizing a dinner communal shelters, replenish the toilet paper…
De una forma u otra estás trabajando todo el día, I leave days 14 hours, but there are so many perks that you receive almost do not realize. How different from those eternal Thursday at the bank!
Normalmente las estancias son de una quincena, as experience is exhausting physically, but especially psychologically.
Aquí la pregunta que me hacéis los que no conocéis el Camino es siempre la misma: Why are you going to hospitalero, Free Curran as a black?
Será que soy un meapilas chupabiblias buscando ganar puntos para la vida eterna?
A ver si me explico. I pall…
Es una manera diferente de vivir el Camino. When you feel you walk as a pilgrim flow through the world. Como hospitalero es el mundo el que fluye por ti.
Así cada día convives con un montón de personas, each with its own history behind. También en Sometimes there who gets more than a day and gives you a hand.
Pero no hay día sin que te encuentres a alguno con quien conectas particularmente y que haga que todo el esfuerzo haya merecido la pena. As told from Bolivia, personas que tienen algo que contarte o a las que tienes que contar algo; that appear to help or you help them. So, paint and paint us each mental mosaic that we are, of how we interpret the world, enriqueciéndolo con cada nuevo retal.
Me han enseñado a hacer unos garbanzos cojonudos,. And macrame bracelets then gave. A organizar clases comunales de estiramientos rollo Eva Nasarre a las 8 in the morning. To receive dozens of hugs. To see how a lot of Koreans will dance the “Gangnam Style”. A mistreating a little less French and Catalan. A German insult. To get really cheap airline tickets. También a como llevar con optimismo ser joven y tener Parkinson.
Me han hablado de lugares que quiero conocer, Borneo, Philippines, Indonesia… Me han contado historias de desamores. I have given cakes, beers, dismissed on slips, wine bottles… (certainly not matched with wine, Spanish'm the only who does not like). And a handful of emails to keep in touch.
Sin duda hay una gran gratificación en el dar. That know a lot who are parents. But also, when you give you receive, a menudo por otro lado.

And here the “Ying” experience. No more so “buenrollismo” y misticismo. In the next go with the “Yang”.
