    Camino Primitivo for younger person

    After leaving Lugo, demographics have changed substantially. Lots of young people now. If we could only do something about all the rain!

    Camino Primitivo for younger person

    Okay, we just finished the 8th day of our Camino Primitivo. It is definitely not the demographic I had hoped for. While she is being a good sport and enjoying the people we meet, there aren’t any young people. It seems mostly like a bunch of old men (I can say that since I’m an old man too)...

    No train from Madrid to Oviedo?

    I found a ride using the BlaBlaCar website. 54 euros for 2 people. Not bad and will give us a chance to meet a couple of Spaniards.

    Camino Primitivo for younger person

    I did the Frances from St. Jean in 2022 and am eager to do another Camino. However, I don't have a much time this year. Thought I would try the Camino Primitivo starting in Oviedo. This time my partner is going to join me. She's 60 and I'm 64. Our niece would also like to join us, she's 20...

    Clothing for "packing smart"/not overpacking for Camino Primitivo (second half of Sept 2022)

    Dave, first, thank for all the detailed help you continually provide all of us. A few questions. I know that fashion is not a concern on the camino but I see you don't have any regular shorts or pants. What do you do if you go to a restaurant in the evening or when you're travelling? Also...
