21 July 2019 - Andrija Đukić, a 15-year-old boy from Podgorica, has achieved the objective he set a month ago when he set out on a 900-kilometer and million steps long journey in order to collect money for medical treatment of children in “Be human” foundation, reported CdM.

Andrija got the Compostela, a diploma pilgrims obtain when they reach their objective successfully. This brave boy has walked around 800 kilometers so far. Today he reached Santiago de Compostela in Spain and as his mother Jelena said, tomorrow he will be heading towards Finistera.

The picturesque landscapes of France and Spain featured in “The way” film has inspired Andrija to start the journey of his dreams. On 20 June, together with his mother, Andrija went on a 900 km long journey, within the humanitarian action Million steps, with the aim of helping collect money for the treatment of children in the Be Human foundation.

“I have been thinking a lot about the ways I can help children who need the help most. And I found the answer in “The Way” film. This is the answer. Pilgrims carry this stone on their way. It represents the suffering and sorrow of the one who is carrying it. That is what I am going to do, in Cruise de Fero, the highest point of the journey. Symbolically, I will leave their pain there,” said the boy before he went on to pursue his noble goal.
