What is donativo?<\/h1>\n

At G\u00eete P\u00e8lerin \u2013 Le Chemin, like many pilgrim hostels, we operate on a donation basis. This means you don’t pay a fixed price, but instead give what you can at the time. <\/p>\n

The word donativo comes from Spanish and means gift. It’s a centuries-old tradition along the pilgrimage routes: pilgrims contribute according to their ability, so that everyone\u2014regardless of budget\u2014can find a place to rest and recharge along the way. <\/p>\n

Why do we work with donativo?<\/h2>\n

It is our wish that this hostel remains accessible to all <\/em>pilgrims, including those on longer journeys or with a more limited budget. Donativo makes this possible: some pilgrims give a little more, others a little less, and together we keep this place going.<\/p>\n

Although we, as managers and volunteers, work without compensation, there are of course costs to keep the g\u00eete running: think of energy, maintenance of the historic inn and daily amenities.<\/p>\n
