      Xago reacted to Rita Flower's post in the thread Accommodation worries with Like Like.
      Apparently numbers are up a lot this year. I find myself starting from Le Puy at the end of May - (but that’s another story). I am hearing that May is very busy there too with many gites booked out. Which can be very unsettling to hear...

      I've just played my indicator game again. ;) For the current week 5-12 May (Sunday to Sunday) it still looks very busy on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday for Roncesvalles, less busy on Wednesday, and very busy again on Thursday - that's the 9th of...

      Yes. And people who are on their first Camino, who come from far away and who have never done anything like this before are surprised and even disappointed when they find that, upon their arrival in Roncesvalles or Zubiri or even Pamplona on a...

      Xago reacted to Dani7's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Like Like.
      My Camino experience was steeped in gratitude despite the really hard days, physically, mentally and spiritually. I am a vegetarian, a choice I made for my health. I cannot change things that are out of my control such as animal agriculture. As...

      Xago reacted to Raulvamir's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
      I did not need “el Camino” to see all these painful things. I see them everyday where I live. It pains my heart. But the Camino was for me about finding joy and love while feeling pain and fatigue. I feel physical pain 24 hours a day, while I am...

      Xago reacted to MesaWalker's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Like Like.
      My wife and I have walked two long caminos. We found that a lot of people walking those caminos were in a state of transition (as were we) - trying to find themselves, looking perhaps for new direction, seeking respite and rejuvination from some...

      Xago reacted to martin1ws's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Like Like.
      There are so many terrible things (and people) and so many wonderful things (and people) and everything in between. I like my caminos and the people I met on my caminos very much... but of course it is far from perfect... the caminos are in the...

      Xago reacted to Arctic_Alex's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Like Like.
      And even if it is done as an ego boost ... why not? If this is what they want and need, good for them (as long as it does not bring disadvantages for others). I would even go further and say for a considerable amount of pilgrims one of the...

      Just in case readers get confused by the thread title and the ongoing discussion about the weather situation that had to be reckoned with on the highest parts of the Route Napoleon about a week ago, and on other aspects: No snow is expected on...

      Please bear with these VOLUNTEERS if they are not fluent in your language. They come at their own expense to help pilgrims starting out on the Way. Perhaps you too could come and reinforce the English teams. In French we say "la critique est...
