    Forum Book Club - 1.3 - Walk in a Relaxed Manner (Joyce Rupp)

    Yes, this book is available through Book Depository.......I just checked. I read " Walk in a Relaxed Manner" before I walked my first Camino ( CF) in 2009. I found it quite helpful a few times, when I was faced with similar situations Joyce had mentioned. Especially the sound of snoring in...

    Does that also mean you are prepared to accept the risk you might be to the elderly ( and not so elderly) Spanish people as you walk through their villages?

    CamiNO

    Montamarta accommodations?

    In October 2012 I stayed at Casa Rural El Brunedo........there were 2 rooms available , plus a very nice bathroom. This place is on the main road, as I walked in to Montamarta......I think it is the N 630. At the time it was 20E for a single, plus 3E for laundry. There was also a small...

    Campanario Albergue municipal La Estacion

    A thousand thanks Windswept, for sharing your journey with us. I followed your blogs, and today have just watched your video. In 2012 I walked from Granada to Finisterre, seeing very few Pilgrims------reading your story enabled me to reminisce and relive my time in Spain. I now wonder how I...

    LIVE from the Camino I found a Xunta albergue with a equipted functioning kitchen

    Bravo, Rebecca, and thank you. Last year when I walked the Mozarabe, VDLP and Sanabres to Santiago and Finisterre, I felt very embarrassed when I heard pilgrims complaining about the cost of albergues, meals and continually looking for donativa so they could get a free night. The Spanish...
