Download or read book Sentier vers Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle via Le Puy - Genève. GR 65 written by Fédération française de la randonnée pédestre and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A la sortie de Genève, le pèlerin trace sa route à travers un paysage vallonné de bocages offrant des vues sur les sommets enneigés du Jura. Le Rhône présente ensuite ses coteaux tapissés de vignobles et ses marais drainés cultivés de peupliers. Le climat y est si doux que l'on parle de "petite provence de la Savoie". Après les collines verdoyantes du Bas-Dauphiné où l'horizon se pique de cimes montagneuses, le marcheur atteint les contreforts du massif du Pilat. Puis, vergers et vignobles cèdent le pas aux plateaux et pâturages. Tandis que l'on s'enfonce en Haute-Loire, l'empreinte volcanique prend peu à peu possession du paysage, grandes orgues basaltiques ou pitons volcaniques. Alentour la forêt enveloppe le randonneur de son manteau dense et accueillant. L'arrivée sur Le-Puy-en-Velay donne un avant-goût du but final galicien, car ici aussi l'une des dernières étapes s'appelle "Montjoie".

Book Synopsis Travels with My Donkey by : Tim Moore
Download or read book Travels with My Donkey written by Tim Moore and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "'A donkey?' blurted my family as one. For a moment it didn't seem they'd ever be able to list all the reasons that made this so entertainingly ludicrous. . . .Yes, I'd never ridden a donkey on a beach or petted one at a city farm, never even pinned a cardboard tail to one's throat after the cake and ice cream....A donkey would be my hairy-coated hair shirt, making my pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela a truer test of the will, a trial." With these words, having no knowledge of Spanish and even less about the care and feeding of donkeys, Tim Moore, Britain's indefatigable traveling Everyman, sets out on a pilgrimage to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela with a donkey named Shinto as his companion. Armed only with the Codex Calixtinus, a twelfth-century handbook to the route, and expert advice on donkey management from Robert Louis Stevenson, Moore and his four-legged companion travel the ancient five-hundred-mile route from St. Jean Pied-de-Port, on the French side of the Pyrenees, to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela, which houses the remains of Spain's patron saint, St. James. Over sun-scorched highways, precipitous bridges, dirt paths shaded by leafy trees, and vineyards occasionally lashed by downpours, Moore and Shinto pass through some of the oldest towns and cities in northern Spain in colorful company, both past and present. Pilgrims real and imagined have traveled this route throughout the ages, a diverse cast of wayfarers spanning Charlemagne, St. Francis of Assisi, Chaucer's Wife of Bath, and New Age diva, Shirley MacLaine. Moore's present-day companions are no less florid or poignant. Clearly more interested in Shinto than in Moore, their fellow walkers are an assortment of devout Christian pilgrims, New Age spirituality seekers, travelers grieving over a lost love affair, Baby Boomers contemplating the advent of middle age, and John Q. Public just out for a cheap, boozy sun-drenched outdoor holiday. As Moore pushes, pulls, wheedles, cajoles, and threatens Shinto across Spain toward the crypt of St. James in a quest to find the spiritual pilgrim within, the duo overnights in the bedrooms, dormitories, and---for Shinto---adjacent grassy fields of northern Spain's hostels, inns, convents, seminaries, and farmhouses. Shinto, a donkey with a finely honed talent for relieving himself at the most inopportune moments, has better luck in the search for his next meal than Moore does in finding his inner St. Francis. Undaunted, however, Man and Beast finally arrive at the cathedral and a successful end to their journey. For readers who delighted in his earlier books, Travels with My Donkey is the next hilarious chapter in the travels of Tim Moore, a book that keeps the bones of St. James rattling till this day.

Book Synopsis Wash, Wear, and Care by : Pat Armstrong
Download or read book Wash, Wear, and Care written by Pat Armstrong and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clothing and appearance are steeped in social and personal significance, conveying individuals’ gender, class, culture, and occupation. In the communal setting of long-term residential care, where residents’ autonomy and mobility are often limited but their dignity and identity are paramount, clothes have become crucial issues and the source of tension for residents, their families, and staff. Assessing the neglected but important labour involved in ensuring that clothes promote respect for both the washers and the wearers, Wash, Wear, and Care analyzes the roles that laundry and clothing play in nursing homes, and raises questions about the wider social, political, economic, and historical contexts of these facilities. Drawing on interviews and observations from twenty-seven long-term residential care homes across Canada, Germany, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States, Pat Armstrong and Suzanne Day provide an extensive and vital base of information on the daily organization, tasks, meanings, and concerns associated with clothing, laundry, dressing, and appearance in care facilities. An original study of an overlooked subject, Wash, Wear, and Care illuminates the shifting political and economic dynamics at work in long-term residential care homes and the health care system, raising larger theoretical and policy questions in the process.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Des quatre Voies Jacquaires, cette "Route du Puy" est sans doute la mieux connue. Elle est aussi la première à avoir été classée sentier GR, ceci au plus près de la réalité historique. C'est aussi la plus attachante à parcourir, par la beauté sauvage de certains de ses tronçons et la majesté des grands monuments de foi qui la jalonnent. L'itinéraire traverse tout d'abord le Velay, la Margeride et l'Aubrac. Cette succession de petits massifs montagneux est en fait l'émergence de véritables petits pays aux identités propres, qui s'égrenent jusqu'aux confins du Rouergue. Le Velay présente une ligne de crêtes volcaniques. La Margeride, elle, offre le visage d'une lande mystérieuse, jonchée de granit. Enfin, les prairies naturelles de l'Aubrac, ses petits lacs et ruisseaux, sa vie pastorale traditionnelle finiront d'emporter l'enthousiasme du randonneur.

They are great ways to enjoy the camaraderie of the trail, or to go solo and foster greater independence. There are many paths to incorporating hiking into your life.
