For many years he was now a novice master and prefect, as well as a teacher in Einsiedeln monastery.

In it he describes how he rode his bike from Einsiedeln in Switzerland to Puente la Reina ( Spain ) and then covered the remaining 700 kilometers to Santiago de Compostela on foot. He also made the way back on foot and by bike.
