Hi @Hammockhanger - Triana Backpackers looks lovely - oh those gorgeous tiles! I hope you’re enjoying your stay there and also enjoying Seville.

I’m also following your blog and am really looking forward to your updates. Thank you for sharing your blog with Forum members.

Cheers from Oz -

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Your pictures bring back happy memories. So glad it has survived. Have fun.
 
Stayed in Triana twice. It looks like they have converted the room from a 2 bunk bed dormatory to a single or maybe they always had singles.

Enjoy your birthday in Sevilla!
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
buen camino and be careful of the heat. I booked with them a while ago then they cancelled my reservation. Booked at Hostel One Cathedral. It looks really nice too. When Triana opened up again I was going to cancel at Hostel One and rebook. Then I noticed I could not cancel so maybe next time.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Staring VDLP on 01 Oct so will follow your blog with interest! Especially the accommodation part! Have booked the Triana on strength of recommendations here.
All…for future reference some great day trips from Seville for those that have time. Granada, Cordoba, Cadiz.

Many happy memories looking at your photos. Thanks for sharing! It was back in 2017 when we stayed there at the start of our VDLP. By now the weather will hopefully be more agreeable than during the heat of the summer. Birthday greetings and all the best to you during your walk!

I was there a few years ago. I love the VDLP. More contemplative than the CF. Buen camino.
