Travel Digest


#1 The Way of St James, Santiago de Compostela, Spain

First, @deholt shows us how he prepared for his journey for the Way of St James, a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, Spain. For horse and biking the minimum official pilgrimage is 200 km, while for those walking, the minimum official is 100 km. To participate, you need a Credential of the Pilgrim (€2) to access the Pilgrim hostels along the way, and as a way to collect stamps that show that you've completed the journey. He also gives some helpful tips on what he took to complete his 118km walk.

#2 Medieval Fortress, Kotor, Montenegro

Next, @vegoutt-travel takes us to Kotor, Montenegro. This World Heritage site is surrounded by fortifications built during the Venetian era, making it one of the world's most protected towns. The fortifications protected ramparts, towers, citadels, gates, bastions, forts, cisterns and a castle. Today, these buildings remain very well preserved. While modern day conveniences remind you that you're in the 21st century, the history and surrounding natural beauty of this place are a breathtaking step back in time.

#3 Snorkelling, Lanzarote, Spain

Finally, @gmuxx takes us to Lanzarote, Spain. Popular with holidaymakers, the island is well known for its beaches and as a scuba diving destination. From the protected waters near his hotel, he enjoys swimming and snorkelling among the many schools of fish. On one of his outings, he notices a foot long cuttlefish close to the seafloor. Although abundant in the area, they are typically nocturnal creatures so seeing one during the day is a rare treat. While he did capture this alien-like creature on video, he regrets not have an extendable stick with him at the time for even better footage.
