Hospitalero Training offered in Toronto and Victoria

A sure sign of a Camino addict is the planning that goes on the January and February for perhaps another Camino, another route and a different season. Again this year, we are offering training for those of you who would like to give back in the rĂ´le of a Hospitalero/a and be the one in the albergue welcoming pilgrims who are hot, tired, cold, wet, thirsty and hungry. Some need a glass of water and some need time alone; some need a short rest before moving on and some need to stay longer. It's a rewarding volunteer opportunity and we offer training that will take you back to the Camino.

The training in Toronto is the weekend of March 9-11, 2018 and in Victoria April 20-22. We begin at 6pm on Friday night with a reception which includes tapas and paella. We conclude by 4pm on Sunday. All meals except Saturday evening, are included in the price of $125 and billeting is provided if you are from out of town. Click on the link to the city for the registration information.

Please join us.
It's not that we're all about food, but we do enjoy paella!

A variety of tapas for Friday evening.
