?? We talked to Martin, a 30-year-old man from the Czech Republic who was doing the Camino for the first time. We asked him about his camino experience, and he told us that until now the road has been very clean, and he also tries to take care of it by keeping his garbage in his backpack and throwing it away when he sees a trash can. In this part, he points out that the water points\/ re-fill stations seem to be too scarce for him, since he has seen some but there weren’t enough and sometimes it was not known if it was clean drinking water. Regarding interculturality, he tells us that he has met many people, and has had an exchange of cultures not only with people from different European countries, but also with people from the USA. To point out something important, Martin tells us that he has encountered some language barriers because the posters are only in one language. Regarding the hostels, he tells us that most of the nights he has spent in public hostels and that he finds them enjoyable, since he likes getting to know a lot of people, in the private ones his experience was not like that, although on occasion he has met rude staff and had to wait a long time for them to open. To finish we asked him if the path is inclusive or not, and to this Martin told us that although he had been told that the Camino Portugues was the easiest, it is not adapted, for example, for people with wheelchairs. At the end he told us a little anecdote, in one of his first days his shoes broke and thanks to the help of a fisherman he was able to reach the next town, buy some shoes and heal the wounds the shoes had caused him.<\/p>\n
Thank you very much Martin for telling us about your experience, from the group of volunteers Xacobeando de Tui we hope you have a very Good Camino and a wonderful experience!<\/p>\n
??\u00a0Hablamos con Martin, un hombre de 30 a\u00f1os de Rep\u00fablica Checa que hac\u00eda el Camino por primera vez. Le preguntamos sobre c\u00f3mo ha visto el camino de suciedad, y nos relata que hasta ahora el camino estuvo muy limpio, y adem\u00e1s \u00e9l intenta cuidarlo guardando su basura en la mochila y tir\u00e1ndola cuando ve una papelera. En esta parte nos puntualiza que le parecen escasos los puntos de agua, ya que ha visto algunos pero eran escasos y a veces no se sab\u00eda si era agua potable. En cuanto a la interculturalidad, nos cuenta que ha conocido a muchas personas, y ha tenido un intercambio de culturas no solo con personas de diferentes puntos europeos, sino tambi\u00e9n con personas procedentes de EE.UU. Por puntualizar algo importante en esta secci\u00f3n, Martin nos dice que ha encontrado una barrera ling\u00fc\u00edstica debido a que los carteles solo est\u00e1n en un idioma. Respecto a los albergues nos cuenta que la mayor\u00eda de las noches las ha pasado en albergues p\u00fablicos y que le parecen muy divertidos, ya que conoce a mucha gente, en los privados no fue as\u00ed su experiencia, aunque en alguna ocasi\u00f3n se ha encontrado con un personal bastante grosero y ha tenido que esperar mucho tiempo hasta que abriesen sus puertas. Para terminar le preguntamos sobre si el camino es o no inclusivo, y a esto Martin nos dijo que aunque le hubiesen contado que el Camino Portugu\u00e9s fuese el m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil no est\u00e1 adaptado por ejemplo para personas con silla de ruedas. Al final nos cont\u00f3 una peque\u00f1a an\u00e9cdota, ya que uno de sus primeros d\u00edas se le rompieron los zapatos y gracias a la ayuda de un pescador pudo llegar al siguiente pueblo, comprarse unos zapatos y curarse las heridas que le hab\u00edan provocado.<\/p>\n
