Krum Krumov, a Bulgarian traveler, translator and triathlete started on a charity bike trip from Sozopol in Bulgaria to the town of Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

The traveler will cover 5,000 kms. in all. His chosen route is symbolical. The start is from the Saints Cyril and Methodius church in Sozopo on the Black Sea. Krumov will then traverse the Balkan countries and Italy. From France he will follow the St. James pilgrimage route and end his trip at the St. James church in Santiago de Compostela.
