    German TV documentary - Camino by bike 1984

    Thank you for the information. I am from South Africa and love to be able to stream it one or other time, seeing that we will not be able to watch the German channels. I am Afrikaans speaking and can read and understand German a bit. It might be somewhere on internet.

    Reserving rooms on the Coastal from Porto. Necessary or not?

    My advice will be to book at least 1 or 2 days ahead. I walked the French one in 2018, except for the beginning and end, no booking was necessary. My daughter and I walked the Portuguese one from Lisbon to Santiago last year, starting 21 August 2022. It was very busy, specially from Porto and we...
