Hi everyone,
I am flying into Gatwick on March 15. From Gatwick I have many affordable choices flying into Spain (or Lisbon). I haven't decided where to walk and it's driving me crazy. I had planned to walk the Portuguese Camino, but recently saw that albergues etc are quite expensive so now I'm considering the VdlP? Any opinions/recommendations would be gratefully accepted. My budget is on the lower end so I have to follow those limits. I am trying to spend 30-40€ a day. I will be walking for 82 days. Maybe this crazy. Looking for a push or prod towards a decision. If I find it's not a good fit when I arrive then a train ride can take me elsewhere. It's nothing that cannot be undone. On the other hand, I feel wherever my boots land will be the right place as I know the magic of this experience and feel strongly that you get what's needed when you need on the Camino... no matter where you are or what you need. I comfortable exploring the outer edges of my comfort zones admitting this is often what offers the most profound experiences.
Blessings
Jennifer
