[Bernard duffy]

Have decided to jump a flight to Santiago next week n walk to Finn/Muxia, nothing else prepared but I have been on the Camino before with little prep and it was fine, however should I book accommodation or just wing it n just turn up at the albergues on the way, any advice on albergues would be much appreciated,cheer.

So happy for you, Bernard .... but a touch envious too. To be able just to drop everything and go. How grand is that!! Buen Camino.

Enjoy it all, Bernard. Buen Camino!

I'm just an American so I had to find out what "sod it - I'm off" actually meant. As I expected, it meant what I always contend when I don't care so much about the outcome. In that, I will simply deal with whatever happens and that's that. Adapt. Which, coincidentally, brings me to my daily Tao regarding "Adaptability: Those who adapt themselves will be preserved until the end. That which bends can be straightened. That which is empty can be filled. That which is worn away can be renewed." May you have an adaptable Camino.

I will now add "Sod it" to my favorite sayings I've picked up from around the globe! "Good On Ye Mate!"

Oh sod it, we'll never know if it's yank posting if they adopt our expressions!

 

[Bernard duffy]

haha I'm sure you will always know! Being a Wyoming girl I say, "Yep, Nope and Howdy" too. I call important things I carry, "loot" When I flew with lots of people from Atlanta I picked up "Y'all" If I was young I would want to study Linguistics. Language is a "hoot!"

We cycled it in May and always got a bed - even when the albergue was packed out there were spare mattresses etc to resort to. Also there seemed to be plenty of albergues along the way.
Just go - you lucky thing!

Wish I had your spirit, Bernard - to just get up and go whenever the mood takes one. Brilliant. If you are wondering about booking accommodation in Santiago, fear not. When we arrived at the end of July 2013, we were almost immediately approached by a young woman who rents out rooms to pilgrims. I have to admit to being a bit scared as she led us down some of the more seedy-looking areas, but we arrived at her private home which also doubled up as separate rooms (en suite). We spent a wonderful night there, specially as there was a busker playing a flute just outside the house for a while. The whole experience was amazing. It was great to finish the Camino by spending a bit more on a "proper accommodation basis". I do not think you will have any problems finding somewhere to bed down. We found that, if there wasn't any room in the dorms, you could almost certainly get a private room - more expensive of course, but a good stop-gap. We never did carry on to Muxia so I cannot vouch for accommodation along the way there (hope to do that another time).
