    4 days to spare after Finisterre and Muxia

    Hello, I am currently walking the Finisterre loop and wanted to book 18-21 August in Muxia, but everything is booked, except for this room with 3 beds, not on the side of the ocean, but inside in Muxia. Can you guys help with ideas of places I could go (and stay, no trekking) for a few days...

    Are you always allowed to handwash your clothes?

    Funny question, but I was looking at services and accommodations of various albergues and some of them do not have the facilities or option for handwashing. Does it mean you have to manage in some way to handwash, without their facilities being equipped for it, or you absolutely have to use the...

    Renting horses on the camino, how does it work?

    Thank you for the info. I was wondering where you leave the horses after the day though? I imagine he has a building up there you need to ride to?

    Renting horses on the camino, how does it work?

    I'm curious how the process works to rent horses to ride a part of the camino, or maybe a single day, like the climb to O'Cebreiro, for example. I wonder where you leave your horses after the day and if there are things you need to consider if it's something you would like to do.

    How would you rank the Caminos by difficulty?

    Can someone explain me why the VDLP is thought to be hard? Is it hard mentally bc of long stretches or is it hilly? I thought it was rather flat. Maybe it's because of the distances between stages? I would like to do it someday and I'm trying to understand what makes it a 'harder' camino than...

    Aw, sorry about the abrupt ending. What town did you guys have to stop at? I worry about pavement walking too. It gets hard after a while. Are you guys talking about going back anytime soon?

    Burst my camino bubble.

    Ah, the blisters. Had you brought products or anything like that to prevent them or remedy to them with you? It's true that until we are met with a challenge, we feel invincible, that these things like blisters will only happen to others. I hope my feet manage when walking the camino :o I also...

    Burst my camino bubble.

    Thank you for reassuring me. I think it's such a transformative and unique experience that the pain you feel is secondary in the long run, because what stays with you is much deeper and lasting. I try and tell myself it will be worth it :) I just can't imagine going through said pain. I wonder...
