    This is totally against Camino spirit but . . .

    I am getting a little tired of the 5am club. They wake me up with their torches and noise at 5am, then go to bed with doors closed and lights off at 8pm, so I feel uncomfortable going to and from my stuff, chilling on my bunk. And worst of all I have to do my final next day prep with the lights...

    Muni Albergue Villava

    I liked the idea of missing the Brierley stages, as it is far quieter. But it's quiet to the extreme today. I'm in the muni in Villava and I'm the only one. It has wifi, a kitchen, lockers. But at the moment I could do with a little company. I'd like to find a happy medium as I continue my...

    Albergue Irugoienea : Espinal

    Hi, Walked on from Roncevalles instead of staying there. About 6.6 km after I reached Espinal and found a great little Albergue. It is €10 for the bed plus €10.50 for optional evening meal and €3 for breakfast. Free wifi, vending machines and very quiet. To find it you turn left on the Main...

    Need to stop reading this Forum

    I leave next Tuesday and I've decided to stop reading the forum now as its mostly just worrying me. Every day I'm reading how there are no beds. Every day I'm reading that you can't walk your own Camino because you need to plan for the people who get up at 5am or only walk 15km, and are taking...

    Can't decide between the AC Palacio and NH Obradraio

    Hi, My girlfriend/ hopefully fiancé (after proposing in Santiago) is going to fly out to Santiago for the end of my Camino so we can spend a week together there. Id like a nice hotel for 6 days at the end of September and as a compromise between price and style I have narrowed my choices down...

    Leather cowboy hat?

    Ive got this awesome leather 'Indiana jones' style hat I've just had a flash thought about taking on my Camino in September. It offers great sun protection, is taller than my head so offers ventilation and the leather will keep the rain off. I'm just a bit apprehensive because it doesn't pack...

    Avoiding Brierley stages?

    Hi there, With my pace and the rough distance I plan on covering each day, I'm not looking to reach my destination before 4pm each day. With all the posts I've read concerning 'race for beds' and a very busy year on the Camino, should I plan to avoid the Brierley stages altogether? At present I...

    Arriving Biarritz 21:10, too late to head to SJPDP?

    Hi there, I fly out to my Camino 28th August, and arrive Biarritz airport 21:10. I want to start walking the very next day, but looking at train times if I leave Bayonne the following morning I don't get into St Jean Pied de Port till about 09:30. This seems too late to start my first day, as I...
