scroll that pilgrims receive when they show their passport with all the stamps of all the places they passed is called the compostelana at the end of the video you see a man who did not put his compostelana in his backpack carrying a scroll what caught my attention on friday was how many people were waiting on line at the reception center in the beginning of june they started the camino early to avoid the crowds but since they were all trying to avoid crowds they became a crowd you can only imagine how long the line will be in july and august then again people may not come those months to avoid the crowds i will have to remind myself to video later in the summer to see which hypothesis is correct share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook like loading el día de las letras galegas may 17 2026 santiago de compostela 5 june 2026 cmszinnia every may 17 there is a demonstration in support of galician literature and language each year s parade demonstration has a different theme my friend consider the parade a demonstration against the central government last year it was political this year is was focused on using the galician language there were groups that only carried banners but the intensity of the emotion of the chanters was what drew may attention for this reason i arranged the video without the sound track and added it back later the banners are not presented in the order in which they actually occurred each year a deceased author is honoured the video starts with the banner dedicated to begoña caamaño who died in 2014 after writing only two novels both are extremely powerful retellings of the stories of penelope and morgana caamaño has only been translated into spanish and portuguese the next banner is dedicated to castelao the galician republican painter political cartoonist and essayist he self exiled to argentina in 1940 sempre en galiza a collection of essays was published in 1944 you will hear people chanting sempre en galiza en galego that book was a rallying call to all galician nationalists many of whom were in self exile along with castelao in argentina the following banner honors alexandre boveda who was a republican galician nationalist assassinated in 1936 when franco started the civil war in 1945 castelao painted the last class taught by the teacher which shows two children crying over the dead body of their teacher the teacher s face was boveda s this year s parade felt both shorter and more focused than usual i wonder what next year s parade demonstration will be like

saint of a village town or city in the smaller populations the musicians are the local residents other people dance in a city as large as santiago they are paid musicians santiago is celebrating the ascension of christ there is also a temporary amusement park with a ferris wheel in the alameda i always wonder what christ would think of all this since he was a kindly person he would probably smile indulgently you might notice that i have mangled the music that is because i really couldn t follow it to me it was all noise disorganised sound what surprised me was the people who brought their infants for a picnic in all that loud disorganised sound there was a large group of people attending but very few were dancing or even tapping their feet i thought how bizarre to come into a noisy place to talk to shout at your friends as i moved through the crowd to approach the stage i found the dancers the more flashy dancers were people in their fifties at least when you are in spain do plan to catch a romeria share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook like loading carnaval badajoz february 15 2026 5 june 2026 cmszinnia it is no surprise that the paraders in the carnaval in badajoz spend a year preparing for each event there are close to 60 clubs in badajoz the costumes as you can see are elaborate especially the headdresses but also the shoes each club has between 300 and 400 members of all age groups equally divided between men and women each year the clubs pick a new theme and make new costumes the badajoz clubs travel to other cities in spain their costumes are displayed in local museums the badajoz carnaval differs greatly from the carnaval parade in santiago which relies heavily on floats the costumes are not as extravagant each float does not have its own band and there are not business sponsors for the groups although i shot a lot of video on reviewing it there was very little that i felt captured the vitality of the event share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook like loading doctors demonstrate santiago de compostela january 14 2026 5 june 2026 cmszinnia yesterday as i was walking to teach the meditation class i heard shouts in the distance by the time i arrived at the main street i saw and heard the demonstration each demonstration in santiago and there are many has its own sound this one is unique because of how clearly the words are articulated it was the medical doctors who are all government employees they are complaining that they are not paid for all their hours they don t have a clear contract and they were asking the public to not judge them but to support them the lady who greeted me is one of my hiking companions

time in the airport before the flight leaves as you are all aware i have a series of videos about my time in various airports this time it is malaga i was struck by how the tobacco and alcohol was arranged by colors most of the shops are a visual hodge podge but this one was actually attractive it took me over 2 minutes to walk through the space i cut some parts and doubled the speed of my trip to condense the video to one minute the speeded up version is probably the way a person running to catch a plane would see the store share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in

mediterranean the land in the distance looks green but it is all esparto grass the difference between the coastal land and the official dessert is that there are more plants the day we went to cabo de gata we stopped for the lunch break at an abandoned hippie compound we noticed some boats anchored offshore the remaining people told us to hurry up because they were expecting to unload drugs shortly after we left according to the news there was a chase between the drug dealers and the coast guard share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook like loading

feel when i am walking in open space deserts these video clips may give you a better sense of the grandeur of nature the dessert of tabernas is where sergio leone filmed the spaghetti westerns now

loading buen camino may 30 2026 obradoiro santiago de compostela 5 june 2026 cmszinnia for some reason i began to think of all the circumstances that came together for me to take this video saturday when i went to the market i passed maria s stand i noticed that she had very few strawberries left i asked her to put a pound aside for me i continued shopping i went back to maria s stand to complete the grocery shopping i went home i did not unload the groceries immediately shortly before maria closed the stand she whatsapped me did i forget to give you the strawberries i checked the groceries yes she had forgotten to give me the strawberries i go back to the market to pick them up rather than going home directly i decided to go through obradoiro square in front of the cathedral to see what was happening on my way i noticed 4 people with red shirts they were sort of performing they were followed by videographers i decided to follow something important must be happening how exciting to be there just in the nick of time as you see in the video the four in red shirts were greeted enthusiastically since i noticed two people in wheel chairs i wondered if the four in red where the ones who pushed the chairs along the camino there are groups that take disabled people on the camino the group is called buen camino en vida good journey in life i could not find out anything about them the reason i go through obradoiro square frequently is not just to make videos the square is filled with emotions people are happy to have finished the camino there are hugs kisses tears displays of energy singing dancing cheering even when there are very few people in the square some of that positive energy lingers share share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window

culture aided by america has taken over christmas as part of a project for fotoforum the photography club i tried to find store windows decorated with nativity scenes there were hardly any as i was
