Welcome to our project

Today we start this blog doing a little presentation of our project.

We are a school from Valencia, called Sagrada Familia PJO, and we will prepare the last five parts of the French Santiago´s way, it will take place in June 2015.

 When are we going to do the trip?

This year (2015), we want to do this trip in June of 2015. It will take one day to go and return and five days walking during the Santiago´s way.

I firstly propose this day for several reasons:

1. It is a period that takes place between the first and second term without exams, an ideal                       moment to prepare a project with this features without negatively influencing (in fact, we take             the view that it would be positive) in the academic performance of the student-pilgrim.

2. The weather in this season of the year is benevolent, without the very low temperatures of                  winter and without the very high temperatures of summer. To perform a physical exercise of                 this magnitude, I think it is the perfect time.

3. The dates make the road uncrowded, as often happens in the summer and holiday periods of                Easter. And it is a great advantage to be able to enjoy it without the crowds. In addition there            are many more possibilities to find shelter in these later times than not. Referring to the hostel,             I would like to say that we could contact schools and parishes to give us shelter or go to                        shelters for pilgrims who share hospitality.
