    Muxia or Finisterre first?

    10KM per day sounds perfect to me! Would you mind sharing your stops? Which route did you take first eventually? Thanks!

    Class of 2013

    I'm Lea from the Philippines. I walked the Camino May-June of this year. Still on the road (not on the Camino) since then, seeing new places, meeting people, and experiencing amazing adventures, but the memories of the Camino remains to be the most special one. If I met you along the way, please...

    Camino Pilgrim from the Philippines

    Re: Camino Pilgrim from the Philipines Happy to help a fellow Pinoy pilgrim. To walk the last 100KM, most people start from Sarria. It is a few KM more than a 100. If you have two more days to spare (or 1 depending on how far you are planning to walk in a day), I've met people starting from...

    Anyone stayed in Gite "Kayola" before Orisson?

    I stayed at Kayola last May 8. We went up to Orisson for dinner and at the same time made reservations for breakfast the next morning.

    Train from Paris (CDG) to st.jean pied-du-port

    Margaret thank you so much for this information. I was using the http://www.idtgv.com/en/ website where there are no more tickets for the 8th and the 9th. I've decided to book on the 7th but my credit cards (issued from Singapore) were not getting in. I finally gave up and emailed customer...

    Train from Paris (CDG) to st.jean pied-du-port

    I was looking at the two websites posted below and the trains departing from Paris to Bayonne are fully booked. Do I really need to book that far out in advanced? Or will there be remaining seats if I go directly to the train station?

    Anyone stayed in Gite "Kayola" before Orisson?

    I just received a response from the owner that Orisson is fully booked on the night that I plan to stay and he suggested Kayola. My question is if I'm going to cook my own food in the kitchen, where do I buy the ingredients? Does that mean I need to bring them all the way from SJPdP?

    Route Napoleon Closed

    Not yet. I was surprised reservation has to be done so early. They are fully booked (for reservations) until end of May. :(

    Camino Pilgrim from the Philippines

    Re: Camino Pilgrim from the Philipines Eddie, I admire that you are also doing this for charity. I am also a supporter of Room to Read, having attended John Wood's book launch at a company event. I hope to see you along the way (you are starting earlier than me so maybe not). In any case, good...

    I'm crazy!

    Re: I'm crazy! Tyrrek that's so nice of you! Thank you. :D David - lovely quote. I keep reading it again and again and again. I look forward into meeting all those people in the Camino.

    I'm crazy!

    Re: I'm crazy! Add me to the list of crazy ones! :) I quit my job so I can do the Camino this May. In my current work situation, the maximum I can go on leave is 3 weeks. Take almost 4 days off to fly to/from Singapore and that gives me about 2 weeks to do the Camino. I could either wait for 2...

    Train from Paris (CDG) to st.jean pied-du-port

    Thank you all for this really helpful information. I'll be arriving May 5 in Paris, spending a day to visit Versailles. If there is anyone traveling to St. Jean from Paris around May 7 (or any day that week, my schedules are not final yet) and want to take the trains together, let me know.

    Schengen Visa Issues!

    I just got my visa last week! :) Her travel history would help. You would need to provide a solid financial guarantee (bank statements, payslips, tax returns) and other proof of attachment to the country of residence are what the consul would be looking for. My personal opinion, is she should...
