    New albergue coming in Braga

    There already is one. I stayed here in 2022. https://www.joemca.com/?page_id=16

    Snoring (Part 2)

    Again, just so we're crystal clear on this. This wasn't an albergue, this was a hostel. Used by tourists, youths, etc. What gives him the right to touch me, let alone wake me up? If he wanted peace, he should have gotten a private room, or if not financially viable, a set of earplugs. As I also...

    Thefts in albergue

    Oh, the irony

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    Whatever. I'm done here. I'm sure he'll enjoy the singalong at Casa Fernanda and the Polpo in Galicia. And I genuinely hope he does. But yeah, I'm done. This has certainly been insightful.

    And again, it's a pilgrimage, not a holiday

    Nice. Stay classy

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    Okay, maybe I overreacted. But it was an extreme invasion of my personal space. And again, this wasn't an albergue, but a public hostel. He didn't go out to the communal space where people were talking and tell them to shut up.

    Finally, somebody who actually gets it. Thank you

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    Right, so it's established that physically touching someone in their sleep is far less of a crime than snoring? Got it. Even though all the videos on YouTube by all the "experts" explicitly state that there will be people who snore and it's highly recommended that you bring earplugs. Also, I may...

    I might just do that.

    You are aware that the Catholic Church is literally one of the richest institutions in the world, right?

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    Addendum:- A non pilgrim guest, in addition to the other pilgrims in the room not only confirmed that I didn't wake him when I came back to the room, but that HE was actually awoken by the guy waking me up. You really couldn't make it up. And yes, I guess I am the bad guy. "Spirit of the...

    Unfortunately I can't afford private rooms. It's a pilgrimage, not a holiday.

    We weren't drinking together

    Yes. It's the Sanctuary at Fatima, and they insist on not taking donations. Google it if you want. I knew I'd get this reaction. I guess I'm the bad guy, eh?

    We weren't drinking together, the conversation was from when we met when I arrived at the hostel

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    A) This isn't my first Camino B) This was a public hostel in Tomar, a busy thoroughfare on the C.P used by many pilgrims C) There were other noisy, younger guests in the hostel D) As I have previously stated, even my ex confirmed my snoring isn't loud

    Violence (nearly), due to snoring.

    So, I am/was in the middle of the C.P. I'd just walked from Fatima and my feet are ruined (see attached photos, which are of each foot). Anyway, arrived in Tomar, checked into the hostel, and met an Australian guy who was in the bunk below. Seemed really friendly. We chatted about the cricket...
