24 - Ray and Dominique, Casa Banderas - Buying an albergue and moving to Spain‪!‬ The Camino Cafe

    • Health & Fitness

After walking their Caminos, Ray & Dominique Powell, fell in love and bought the albergue, Casa Banderas. Many of you may remember walking past this albergue known for all the beautiful flags outside. It is located about 20 km after Sarria, approaching Portomarin in the tiny village of Vilacha.  They will soon be open to receiving Pilgrims later this Fall.  In this interview, you will hear about Ray's Camino with his Dad and the Camino he and Dominique took together. You'll also learn about their challenging experiences during the lockdown with obtaining their Visas to move to Spain and to operate the albergue. I absolutely love their energy and I can't wait to stay with them soon!
