Abstract

Interest in the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is growing. Some pilgrims repeat their pilgrimage. What motivates a person in contemporary Western society to make a journey that requires a lot of resources? The article aims to investigate the motives and travelling experiences of a modern pilgrim on the Northern Way of St James. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, the paper examines the experiences of pilgrims and the specifics of the route, as well as how they construct relationships with other pilgrims and the broader pilgrim community along the way, and how important this connection is in the complexity of the pilgrimage. Key words: pilgrimage, travel, Santiago de Compostela, Way of St James, togetherness.
