““Pilgrims who arrive in Rome on foot or by bike on a “devotionis causa” pilgrimage are welcome to stay at a recently refurbished hostel, the Spedale della Provvidenza in Travestere. It is operated by the Franciscan Missionary Sisters and the Confraternity of St. James. The women running the hostel will invite you to share an evening meal with them. My recommendation: Join them. I did, and it was a wonderfully memorable experience.””
