The experience itself has been more than I expected, the reality of the place is extraordinary because the Camino of Santiago makes appear the positive values of the people so there is much time for living in a way which is strongly peaceful and quite.
To know new persons from all over the world there was very interesting and has been to me one of the thing more considerable of this experience!!

Las Águedas is a life experience. There are some positive energies deriving from the happiness of the Pellegrini, the joy of the people working there and feeling like a real family. Francisca and Eduardo are lovely people and provide you with all the love and food you need. You would also have the opportunity to work for a while and then do the Camino; meeting people from around the world and enjoying amazing landscapes. I would like to pose a big thank you to Evilio and Pristilla, the people running las Águedas during my staying, as well as to the other volunteers. We were and will be family.

This place is worth it by Evilio, an amazing human being with a big heart, since I arrived he helped me in all the ways, also the experience with the pilgrims can be amazing, of course if you are up to it.
Muchas gracias por todo Evilio, e claro os outros hospitaleiros também !

Las Aguedas is an incredible oasis near Astorga. The place is sourrounded by nature and wise people, consequently this place perfectly suits people that are looking for a relaxing working experience in the middle of the camino. The camino is a fundamental component of the albergue, because hosts have the possibility to learn from pilgrims' tales.The staff of Las Aguedas is extremely calm and lovely to everyone.Peace ,silence , deep talks,sharing and great music are just some of the values appreciated here. I've learned so much and now I feel part of this family. Highly recommended!
