  • Preparing the fire for cooking and warm themselves from the cold.<br />
The gipsies call it "the Cult", it is a kind of pact that they get together twice a week in a common hut to pray for good and exorcise the evil. Inside the hut there´s a heavy atmosphere and things seem to be a blend of fantasy and reality. Tens of gipsies form a circle of screams and cries and you can hear a mix of prays, complains, desperation and guilt. A gipsie women faints on the floor almost like she has been exorcised and she had a demon inside her, slowly with the help of the others she recovers.<br />
The truth is that the cult is a way that gipsies chose to express themselves, something that is very much theirs, just like the sound of the gipsies guitars, shows something very real, the suffering of their spirits.

  • Pilgrim near Pamplona, Navarre region. Spain . The WAY OF SAINT JAMES or CAMINO DE SANTIAGO following the French Route, between Saint Jean Pied de Port and Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, SPAIN. Tradition says that the body and head of St. James, after his execution circa. 44 AD, was taken by boat from Jerusalem to Santiago de Compostela. The Cathedral built to keep the remains has long been regarded as important as Rome and Jerusalem in terms of Christian religious significance, a site worthy to be a pilgrimage destination for over a thousand years. In addition to people undertaking a religious pilgrimage, there are many travellers and hikers who nowadays walk the route for non-religious reasons: travel, sport, or simply the challenge of weeks of walking in a foreign land. In Spain there are many different paths to reach Santiago. The three main ones are the French, the Silver and the Coastal or Northern Way. The pilgrimage was named one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites in 1993. When there is a Holy Compostellan Year (whenever July 25 falls on a Sunday; the next will be 2010) the Galician government's Xacobeo tourism campaign is unleashed once more. Last Compostellan year was 2004 and the number of pilgrims increased to almost 200.000 people.

The shadow line is a trip, a trip losing myself, looking for myself.<br />
Like the romance “the shadow line” by Joseph Conrad (1917).<br />
I was in Italy, England, Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia..<br />
It isn’t a reportage, it isn’t a story.<br />
It is a searching..<br />
<br />
I get away, I run, I go. I greet everybody and go.<br />
Where? Alone? With whome?<br />
Which faces I will meet on the way?<br />
It will be cold, it will be hot?<br />
There will be the sea or the countryside?<br />
Too many questions. If don’t start now, without thinking about it, maybe I will not ever again.<br />
I saw trains passed. I dreamed with my head pointed up, where there was flying a plane. Where it were going? It didn’t matter.<br />
The idea to leave was enough, because I was in jail, because every things around me was looked and could not find escape routes.<br />
Yes, I want to travel. At the risk of finding myself imprisoned in a shabby suburb in Krakow, or blocked by the cold inside a house in London.<br />
I want to travel, go, jump on a train or on a plane and take the fear away with me.<br />
Why this exact moment is now or never.<br />
Because even in the worst, most wretched places in the world to find you the look of a girl, a bird in flight, steal a conversation on the phone. And I have something to tell. To myself, to others. I can raise my head and say, “I’ve been there, I saw, I heard.”<br />
And now I’m travelling. My train runs on a line of shadow, hidden from the eyes of the world.<br />
I will stay just the time that i will need. Time to take a breath. The time that the eyes devour that portion of the light that is called “world”.<br />
The time to be myself, to the end, at least once in their lifetime.<br />
Before of put a good dress, get out of the shadow line and let me wet from light.<br />
Before finding my best smile and say, “Here I am. I am here.
