Hi friends & fam!

No matter which route you decide to take to Santiago, they all end at the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, where the remains of the St. James are believed to be kept. It is a massive granite church in the center of Santiago with carved stone, sculptures, columns, & a figure of St. James in the center. Pilgrims are meant to complete their journey by climbing a narrow staircase leading behind the alter, where they can actually hug the figure, & then attend a mass. I took a few clips of my teammates giving St. James a hug, have a look!

 

 

My team has made it to Morocco for the month & I will be updating soon with more details!
