Juan arrived at the albergue yesterday . . . going in the other direction . . . from a military family in Argentina, his grandfather and father implicated in the disappearance of radicals in the 70s . . . his father in prison in Buenos Aires, charged with 85 crimes . . .
Juan has decided to break with his lineage . . . packed his rucksack and set off for Jerusalem . . . seeking interior peace first, then peace in the world . . . travelled through Peru, Colombia . . . walking, hitch-hiking . . . took a plane to Spain . . . started at Santiago with €10 and wandered along the Camino . . . stopping to work with Helpx . . . finding hospitality, kindness . . . a wonderful encounter . . . this morning I considered going with him back to Urdues de Lerda, stopping there to continue the philosophy . . . in the end set off with Sergio towards Monreal . . .
