Hello everyone, I am planning to walk the Camino Del Norte in Late May, I only have 16 days, so I am planning to do San Sebastian to Markina-Xemein, take a day rest and drive to Saltilana del Mar. Walk from Saltilana del Mar to Comillas, then drive to Vilalba, walking from there to Santiago. Will I be accepted as a pelegrina in the hostels in Saltilana and Vilalba despite driving there? Any tips on Camino Del Norte much appreciated.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

It is unlikely that a Pilgrim oriented Albergue will accept a car driver but there are plenty of private accommodations in both locations. How do you propose to move your vehicle during your walking days?
My husband will pick me up from my last walking day, and drive me to my next point in my rest day. I am planning to do 5 days walk, 2 days rest, 2 days walk, 1 day rest, 5 days walk.
