My name is John, I'm from England, and my dream is to walk (in order) to see the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. I'm going to start in Roncesvalles and I am going to walk to Santiago de Compostela. The cathedral is very old. Upon entering, you can see a magnificent piece of work. It is called The Portico of Glory. The cathedral is the end of the Camino de Santiago and the pilgrims receive a certificate.
