Diary of the Way to Santiago is a gift from its generous author in two ways: first, it addresses practical questions of the pilgrimage, ranging from giving recommendations of hostels and of basic care for the traveler, to provide answers to worries and concerns, to facilitate daily life on "the way." Second, it gives us a deep reflection not only of how to achieve our goals in life, but it shows us that life in general is like "the way" in various aspects, like there will be spectacular sunrises but also contingencies to solve.
