A curiosity

[Rosina Lila]

Ignacio,
What, precisely,  are the "mistakes, errors and cultural misunderstandings"
that you found in the New York Times Camino article?
Given the constraints of space, and the purpose and audience for which the
article was intended ( U.S.A. potential travelers  with little or no  knowledge
of the Camino), I though that  the report was well written, balanced, fair and
informative.
After all, the article appeared iun the separate "Travel" section of the
Sunday Times, and it would appear that its  first impression rendering has  been
quite successful: The Galicians that own a (very fine) Spanish restaurant on my
block have told me that their customers have besieged them with inquiries
about the Camino since the article appeared.
Regards,
Rosina
p.s.  for New Yorkers: the restaurant is called "El Charro" and is located at
4 Charles Street in the Village.  Those of us who have been going there for
decades cherish it.
