oursonpolaire replied to the thread Dressy comfortable town shoes!.I think the clergy are happy as long as we are not barefoot, but will likely overlook even that. -
oursonpolaire replied to the thread 4-day 1st- time Camino..I would re-examine your urban schedule; do your 4-5 days in either Barcelona or Madrid, but not both. To do both will eat up 1-2 travelling days on a tight schedule, and will introduce a possibly unnecessary frazzle element to your trip...

@Unweekends have you decided to disregard the helpful comments in your previous thread? https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/7-day-camino-sarria-to-santiago-110km.85948/ I urge you to consider that if you do want to spend time in...

oursonpolaire replied to the thread Pilgrim rates for Hotel Accommodation?.Not suggesting that you had expectations!! Budget planning is very legitimate. I was writing more for the information of a general readership (and, I fear, a few pilgrims I have met whose notion of the Camino included lots of cleverness!!)...

oursonpolaire replied to the thread Pilgrim rates for Hotel Accommodation?.I have found on the off-piste caminos (e.g. Castellano-Aragonese or Catalan) that hotels will often give pilgrims the commercial travellers' rate (or the truck-drivers' rate in hostales which cater to them). Usually the arrival of a dusty or...

oursonpolaire replied to the thread Have Pilgrim's Passport, but do I need to register at a local pilgrim's office before I can stay in municipal albergues?.There is no registry. Just get your credencial stamped at wherever you start your journey. Churchgoing pilgrims will often get their first stamp at their parish just before their international voyage begins. Otherwise, get it stamped at...
