Second better than first

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
What was wrong with the first? Why do you expect the second to be better? Porto is a very pleasant town, but why did you mention it in connection with the CF? Are you scouting the beginning of the Camino Portugués?

I think it is probably very simple. Hoping the second camino is even more rewarding/fun whatever than the first. If you have ever been in Porto, maybe you have and you know,what a wonderful city it is and how fantastic the people are. In 2019 I did a winter camino on the CF from Pamplona. (It was really hard because of weather and transportation to get to SJPP) and then met my daughter for 10 days in Porto and surroundings. It was fantastic!

Welcome here and a very buen camino, @oonim !
If you have questions about the route, there are plenty of answers here.

There is also a thread for August departures, so you can put your date in, as well as connect by PM with others leaving around the same time.

What was wrong with the first?
Maybe nothing.
As rewarding as the first, wthout the angst of not knowing what you're getting into?

I suspect my 2nd Camino will be better than the 1st and the 3rd better than the rest. Porto is a fabulous city to relax and enjoy after a long walk. Buen Camino!
