There is  a report in the Voz de Galicia about the romantic effect of the 
Camino on many  pilgrims who have met there, dated, and even married. Some 
pilgrims have, in  fact, chosen to walk the Camino as their Honeymoon. One such 
couple, who  arrived in Santiago a few days ago, declared that they had reasoned 
that if  they could overcome the difficulties and challenges of the Camino 
together  they could also face whatever problems of married life.  


 
I just returned from Canada where I attended the August 11, 2007 wedding of  
Anne-Christine Loranger and Andreas Schultz.  They are dear friends of mine  
who met on the Camino with me in 2000.  They have been living in Dresden,  
where Andreas is from, since they met.  I have been their guest for two  visits 
with them, the most recent this past May.
 
Also at the wedding were Nathalie and Oscar who met on the Camino, got  
married, and now live in Montreal, where Nathalie is from, with their one  year old 
son.  Oscar is from Madrid.
 
The wedding reception was held at the Domaine de la Templerie a  beautiful 
country inn with a connection to the Knights  Templar.  See:
