    LIVE from the Camino Limoges to Santiago; experiences and thoughts

    New update: My back and my mind are getting calibrated to the camino. I feel better by the day. During my walk to Sainte-Foy-la-Grande the fog of the fire in Gironde blocked the sun: it was therefore cooler than predicted. Also you could smell the burning wood. In Sainte-Foy-la-Grande I stayed...

    Alert Wildfire on the Vezelay: danger on the route

    Hey! I just learned from the tourist office in Bazas that parts of the Vezelay route are closed due to forest fire. Does anyone (maybe a native French speaker) have more info for me on the matter? Kind regards, Janus

    LIVE from the Camino Limoges to Santiago; experiences and thoughts

    I will definitely continue! Small remarks: 1. I am starting to find my way:). Apparently you cannot run away from your problems on the camino; instead they get magnified. At home I suffer from social anxiety, low self-esteem, and I am a people pleaser. When I am at a table with people that...

    LIVE from the Camino Limoges to Santiago; experiences and thoughts

    I will! Today was already better so I'm sure the camino will become special:). I started from Limoges so unfortunately i did not get to see Vezelay. But, i heard a lot of good things of it! Maybe next time

    LIVE from the Camino Limoges to Santiago; experiences and thoughts

    Thanks for your reaction! I do know some basic French, enough for simple Q&A (i've had a few years of French in school) and to take care of my needs. However, that will never be enough to engage in vivid conversation between French speaking people. So you just sit at the table, trying to look...

    LIVE from the Camino Limoges to Santiago; experiences and thoughts

    Hello all, I arrived in Limoges on tuesday morning and walked to aix sur vienne (12 km), wednesday to Chalus (20km), thursday to Thiviers (+/- 35km), and today to Sorges (18km). My experience so far is a mix of different feelings. It has been really overwhelming so I did not really observe the...

    Public transport in France: qoquille to thievers

    Sounds good, thank you for the tip! For now I will continue the chemin Vezelay but if the problem stays along the route I will be changing the chemin. Also, i do not know if the dogs are really likely to attack me physically but i am scared of dogs and i do not want to test it.. Perhaps it is...

    Public transport in France: qoquille to thievers

    One thing that i noticed is super agressive dogs along the way that are walking free. Yesterday i got almost attacked. Today another dog blocked my way very agressively. I have to walk back and find an alternative route.. this sucks
