In the USA and Canada:
If you're in North America you may like to visit the site of our fellow organisation in the USA, a new "open entity", American Pilgrims on the Camino which came into being in 2004, and which takes over, by agreement, from "Friends of the Road to Santiago" (whose website remains in being); they are organising a series of Pilgrim Gatherings across North America.
For Canada go to The Canadian Company of Pilgrims.
