The Camino de Santiago is a network of pilgrimages leading to the shrine of the apostle James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Each year hundreds of thousands of people take part in a pilgrimage to Santiago for all sorts of reasons. While everyone is on their own Camino, the history and connections with the way has connected with Christianity may lead queer people to wonder if they would be accepted or welcomed along the way. This podcast explores queer people's experiences and reflections from their own time along the way with the hope it may inspire other queer folk to find their way to Santiago.
Dillon and Larry catch up after their 200 mile adventure on the Camino de Portuguese. A special lost episode is tagged on to the end - enjoy ;)

In a surprise twist, Larry switches chairs and is interviewed about his experience on the Camino in 2023.
