Camino Talks with Jean Louis Aspirot from the Saint Jean Pied de Port Pilgrim's Office in French | Follow the Camino

(French Interview) We had the pleasure of interviewing Jean-Louis Aspirot, who is in charge of the Saint Jean Pied De Port pilgrims' office and general secretary of the Pilgrims' Association of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, the region around Biarritz.

In this podcast, Umberto di Venosa, CEO of Follow The Camino talked with Jean-Louis about the Pilgrimage office, how it is organized, general questions about the Camino, and of course how Covid-19 is affecting things. The Pilgrim Office in St Jean reopened on the 1st of July 2020.


In this Podcast:

- What is the Pilgrimage Office in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port?

- What about the volunteers, how is it organized?

- How many volunteers do you regularly have and from where are they from?

- Do they sleep in a private home or in a defined place?

- What kind of information do you give to people who come? I suppose one of the main tasks is to stamp the famous pilgrim's passport?

- Jean-Louis, do you have any anecdotes? I don't know, famous people or special moments that marked you at the welcome of the pilgrims?

- Jean-Louis, did you make it all the way to Santiago?

- At the moment, well we are obliged to talk about Covid-19, because of the accommodation, and travel restrictions. How are things going right now?

- Have you already thought about how you will interact with people?

- Jean-Louis, do you have a little message for the future pilgrims before ending this interview?
