Iona, a place of Pilgrimage.

I’ve just retrurned back to my little house in Extremadura (Spain) after a two month journey which began with my finishing a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela and ended with a visit to Lourdes, the Catholic shrine in the South of France. In between, I spent a week on the Scottish Island of Iona, a centre of Celtic Spirituality which had attracted pilgrims for many centuries.
