    Crossing from Coastal route to inland route. Mindelo to Vilarinho

    Gday all. Just wondering if anyone can give me an opinion on crossing the coastal route at Mindelo to Vilarinho. It seems to me on the guide book map to be a shorter distance to cross. Which would mean far less roadside walking than what I have seen and heard about if one crosses from Vida do...

    Weather conditions for month of May. Inland route

    Planning on doing the CP starting early May 2023. And was just wondering what the average weather conditions were like that time of year. I did the CF start of early May and it went from cool weather. To fairly hot in a matter of a couple of weeks. Cheers

    Travel mug. Yes or no?

    Is cash still King on camino?

    OK. Hope this doesnt sound like a silly question. But I last walked the French Way back in May 2015. Yes I know only 6 years ago. But things can change. Back then ,cash was king in most situations. And understandably so. Lots of small rural centres. With little electronic money transfer...

    Most bizarre question(and most misunderstood) ever asked about the Camino

    OK. I have a somewhat strange question to ask. I will say that I only ask it as it pertains to a slight medical condition I have, which at times can be very embarrassing. Question is, at the bars and cafe's on the Camino Frances, do they sell coffee in take away containers with lids? I have...

And what about cost? Id more than likely want to post items back to Australia and as Ill be there for nearly 2 months...
