Jorge, What an incredible journey, I felt like I was walking with you! The pictures are amazing but the explanations made it complete. I love your misty temple (no 8 I think ) and the ghostly witch trees. What a feat! Well done.
Felicidades!

I hope it is OK to say "congratulations", an increadible achievement I can only dream of. I still need the guts and faith in myself to do a walking pilgrimage from Munich to Altötting (100km) or to Passau (200km)! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us, it motivates. RRG

Hey Jorge,

Your trip must have been fascinating; it is something that I've considered doing, but I think I've got my holiday plans mapped out for the next three years (I know that is sad).

But who know what may happen.

All the best

Amanda

PS I also liked the pictures you've uploaded its like being a photo journalist.

Hi Jorge
I'd love to be able to do it - but since my severe heart problems in 1995, there's no way I could manage walking day after day.
It's sad but you have seen my attitude - not to grieve for what I can't do but to rejoice for what I can.
Cheers
David

Hi Jorge
I think this album is quite inspirational - whereas, if I were up to it, I should be one of the non-religious walkers going to see the scenery, vilages, nature and churches. I suppose the blend of atheism and strong interest in church architecture, music and artefacts [but rarely paintings] is a bit odd.
Cheers
David

Sorry for the delay - there is no reliable internet on Flores Island... Thanks a lot for your wishes and also about your positive opinion on my Christmas Island report. You know well how difficult is to complete such a report from the rare visited place. But there were also other - better reports in December. Those jurors from GS they have the hard work: it is not east to make a choice of the hot info from rarely visited places or the cafe-table information. The info you cannot get anywhere and unique pictures or the text you can find in many guidebooks... Quality or quantity... I wish them good luck...
After landing in Indonesia I find out that local Sriwijaya Air cancelled the only route from Ind to Philippines I wanted to use. I have a problem: how to do theat route - via Borneo or via Papua NG or.... The internet is very weak here and I pay per minute - no much chance to browse. I think I'll fly to Manado and I'll look for the freightter on site... But if not?. Greatings!

Gracias Jorge! Como va todo, los preparativos para el Camino? Que lo disfruteis con Alfonso y os espero ver a la vuelta, antes de que te pierdas en Siberia otra vez :-)
Gracias por las fotos que estas colgando aqui, estoy aprendiendo mucho de ellas, al igual que de tu libro fantastico :-)
