    "The Way" the movie 'tragic' seeks HELP!

    Thank you for raising this as a conversation. I think that the film has actually added an additional dimension to the experience as good stories have embellished meaning in many things throughout history.... and it is a nice gentle story without which, I probably would never have been exposed...

    Once more with feeling....

    I have gone for the Camino Frances to Finisterre and will make a decision on how to circumvent the last 100km when I get there, maybe diverting at Ponferrada to a lesser walked camino. I will leave SJPdP on Saturday 12 th sept and have an apartment in Valcarlos for the night (if anyone is stuck)...

    I met a Swiss guy in January 2012 walking back to switzerland having just walked to Santiago from Geneva. Ironically, having been sick prior my own 2012 camino I had left my previous job to fight cancer (successfully) by the time i was getting towards Santiago I was feeling fit and ready for...

    Once more with feeling....

    Thanks for the views and help expressed ... my takeaway from this is to follow my nose and avoid the last 100km if the Frances is taken. One option which is becoming attractive is to hang a left at Ponferrada on the Frances and walk the "winter way" and connect to the camino Sanabres to...

    Tattoo Along Camino

    I had one done (St James Cross on thigh) when completing SJPP in Feb 2012 in Santiago. It is not terribly good or bad (never trust a tattooist without a waiting list) but means a lot to me now. I plan to start another long camino in 2 weeks time still can't make my mind up which one..... maybe...

    What are the Do's and Don'ts of Albergue Etiquette?

    snoring is not a choice but buying ear plugs is.... i hope my tolerance levels can cope with all this stuff, i had imagined that my fellow travellers would be intuitively and maximally respectful as i intend to be.... i start my first camino tomorrow...maybe i will see a lot of hotels and...
