“The first formula is the ‘reconcile’ formula. It’s simply a ‘depart on Tuesday and return on Thursday’ schedule. Even on the same route, the price of a flight departing on Tuesday and arriving on Thursday is 12% cheaper than the average price for that route. The second formula is the ‘Sorghum’ formula. According to Skyscanner’s analysis, the ‘Departure on Wednesday – Return on Wednesday’ route is around 11% cheaper than the average price. If everyone uses the reconciliation formula after reading my book and air tickets for this itinerary are sold out, it means that the next best option is to donate. “To make it a little easier to remember, you have to pay for airline tickets in a ‘conventional’ and ‘conventional’ way.”

“Of course, it’s a service we pass by because we don’t know about it. It’s a free birthday cake. If it’s your birthday, you can ask for it with confidence. Even though it’s only the size of the palm of your hand, that’s something. They say it’s free cake. There is a little time until the in-flight meal comes out, so if you are hungry, you can ask for a snack. Politely ask flight attendants for snacks such as nuts or pretzels. Drinks will be served to you after service. On long-haul flights leaving Korea, cup ramen is sometimes served when the lights on the plane are turned off. ”

The ‘Short Pilgrimage Guide to Santiago’ is a book that provides key information for those who have decided to walk the Pilgrimage to Santiago within 300km. In particular, it provides more realistic information for people with limited time, such as office workers.

It includes a variety of content, from how to plan a pilgrimage route to Santiago to a recommended itinerary for the 13-day pilgrimage route. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get away from everyday life and have some alone time.

“Whether you walk fast or slow, each individual has a different physical strength and the weather they walk under is also different. We need to get to Santiago de Compostela. On arrival, everyone receives a pilgrims completion certificate. No information is written on the completion certificate. Because there’s no need to write it down. The joy and emotion that comes from receiving a certificate of completion is the charm of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. “The reality is that there is nowhere you can easily receive the inspiration you get from interacting with pilgrims from all over the world and helping each other.”
