    Camino etiquette - passing others on less-busy caminos

    My husband and I have done two remote Caminos, one from Lisbon to Porto (and beyond) and another in France from Carcassonne to SJPDP. My experience on the remote Camino is that I get excited when I see another Pilgrim and I always would like to say something, have some sort of short conversation...

    Hostels out of Lisbon

    This is where we stayed, I admit, it was a bit of a splurge: https://www.sleepinbucelas.pt/

    Hostels out of Lisbon

    When we walked it in 2021, we took for a cab from Alpriate to a nearby lodging and back again the next morning to start from there. Not an optimal solution, certainly more expensive than an albergue, but it worked.

    Voices of the Camino - Interviews with pilgrims

    I enjoyed the video with the interview, it’s as good as any other of that type of vlog I’ve heard regarding the Camino. I do tend to watch Camino Videos more for the practical details, but I thought this one had a lot to say.

    2018 chainsaw accident near La Espina, looking for Peregrino who saved his life

    Sounds like the pilgrim was French ("I would go to France to see him") - I wonder if this has been translated into French and posted on the various websites for French pilgrims.

    Sounds a bit like the mix of eclectic lodging we recently found on the Chemin du Piemont Pyrenees in France. Thanks!

    Thanks Bradypus. By the way, where does the pilgrim with the non-substantial budget stay while on the Shikoyu pilgrimage?

    Shikoku 88 temple pilgrimage - New York Times article

    Just curious - none of the pictures in the article show pilgrims with backpacks. She only mentions bags once, and that's in reference to the Japanese men whose friends ferried their bags for them. Do pilgrim on the Shikoku route normally carry backpacks?

    What made you pick your 2nd or next camino choice?

    I picked my first Camino, Lisbon to Santiago and then on to Muxia and Finisterre, because I wanted a combination of a Camino that was less crowded and one that was more traditional. And I was very happy, it was all I could’ve asked for! I picked my second Camino, because my sisters had already...

    Camino Irritants

    I thought that your last line was quite funny, and that it clearly indicated that you were being facetious (or perhaps sarcastic) in your posting - not sure how I would have reacted were I not a native English speaker, but it gave me a laugh! :D

    Camino Irritants

    I literally just read the post with this quote in it - it's real! Of course, don't ask me which thread it's in, my memory's not that good these days, but it was a quite recent one.

    Super Paranoid....Can i REALLY Do This?

    When I was in my mid-20's, I walked the Bornem Dodentocht ("death march" in Bornem, Belgium) with some other military folks. It was 100 km (62 miles) in 24 hours - a seemingly impossible feat. I remember being told that finishing the walk was 99% in my head - a mental exercise. Somehow I did...
