pilgrimage to Europe


i was invited by International Movement of Catholic Students and International Young Catholic Students to present a paper in Paris (3rd-7th Dec.2008). After presenting my paper i had time to go to Spain. Antholy Pitchai, my host and the minister of the Jesuit School community of Bilbao took me to Loyola, the birthplace of St. Ignatius, the founding father of the Jesuits. this photo is taken in Inigo's room where he returned after being seriously wounded in the citadel of Pamplona (1521). "This is where he experienced the spiritual transformation which led to him giving up his courtesan life and deliver himself up to God." For me, being present in that room was a spiritual experience.
