[QUOTE="Michael; Camino-addicted, post: 704785, member: 86014"] Hallo Camino friends, my name is Michael , I´m from Germany and a few minutes ago I decided to be a new member of this forum. I learned English more than 30 years ago and use it only on the Camino. It´s not easy for me, to navigate in an englishspeaker forum - it´s a challenge🤔, so please forgive me a little bit. I few words to my ways: Since 2004, when I started my first way to Santiago in Cologne/Germany, I am addicted to the Camino. We (3 friends and me) walked from Cologne to Luxembourg, crossed France by bike and than walked in two stages through Spain to Santiago. It was great, but I was a little bit jealous to the pilgrims who walked alone, because as a little group of 4 people you fill every little table in a bar by yourselve. And getting in contact to the other pilgrims is not so easy, especially when you are the only one who can speak another language than german, so you have to translate everything. So in 2011, after we came home from our Camino, I decided to make it one more time, but alone. I started 2012 in St. Jean and I was determined to walk alone - but that was not the plan HE had for me. So after two days I met Gyula and Luca, two guys from Hungary and Italy, and the next day we walked together. And day after day we met one more pilgrim who fits to us. Christa from Holland, Betty from Romania, Ayi, a priest from India who lives is a parrish in Germany and Valerie and Dieter from Belgium. It was not possible to walk with such a group on the Camino and so we splitted, walked alone, as a duo or a tripple, but we kept in contact on the camino and since than. We meet every year in one country and the host shows us his home area. And a few of them have very nice home areas......... Budapest, Turin, Brussels and Bruges in Belgium, Transsylvanian mountains in Romania, the dutch Lowlands and my industrial area🥵 at the river Ruhr in Germany. And we live, from your point of view, very close to each other, so you can get a flight ticket from Germany to Italy, Hungary and Romania for less than 100€ both ways and the belgium and dutch friends I can visite by bike, if I train a little bit. Since 2012 we made a biking tour around Lake Balaton in Hungary, a tour through the alps in Italy, hiking in the fantastic nature in the Karpathian Mountains in Romania. And we visited a coal mine and could go under the earth in my area. And last but not least we celebrated three weddings (Italy, Belgium, Romania) and one baptism and we are waiting for the next baby. It´s such a great gift and a blessing I have received on my Camino. And until now, i was every year on a different Camino. For this year i want to walk on the Camino Vasco interior from Irun to Burgos. As you know, there are not so many information about this way in the internet, so I decided to look on the international stage;) And I think, I can give you some information, too. There is a variante of the Vasco from Hernani through the natur to Zegama and you can find maps on the plattform [URL="http://www.outdooractive.com"]www.outdooractive.com[/URL] under the german key-words "Jakobsweg (Inland)" 7 maps of the "normal" etapes and in addition two maps of the variants. In spanish it´s called Ruta de transhumancia (there are many in spain) or Variante de Saiatz. It starts in Hernani, goes over Lasarte-Oria and Saskarate and ends on the first map in Bidania-Goiatz. The next day goes from there over Zerain to Zegama and then on the "normal" way. I know different places to sleep between Irun and Zegama: [U][B]Agroturismo Arraspine, 3-4 km before Hernani[/B][/U] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.nekatur.net/arraspine[/URL] [U][B]Casa Rural Saskarate, 17km after Hernani (is being renovated, I hope they are ready in may)[/B][/U] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.nekatur.net/saskarate[/URL] [U][B]Albergue Ambiental de Beizama (17km from Saskarate)[/B][/U] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.booking.com/hotel/es/albergue-ambiental-de-beizama.de.html[/URL] [U][B]Albergue Harizti-Erdi in Zerain (27km from Beizama)[/B][/U] [URL unfurl="true"]http://aldabe.com/es/aterpetxea/banakoak-edo-taldeak/[/URL] I hope, I could help you a little bit. Now it´s time to sleep in Germany. It takes much longer to write in english than in german, but, thanks to google translate, I hope it´s not too bad for your eyes. Good night. Michael [/QUOTE]
