      PAK reacted to Cheryl2445's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino Here we goooo! with Like Like.
      Day 6! Woke up to a wonderful breakfast of fresh bread, ham, cheese, fruit, hot tea and fresh juice at Quinta de Cancela, then were on our way by about 9. We both agree that today’s route was the most beautiful thus far. Every landscape seemed...

      PAK reacted to David's post in the thread New mobile confession booths from Sarria with Like Like.
      Morning. There have been so many reports of bad behaviour from Sarria to the cathedral - pilgrims pushing in, stealing bunk places, being rude, etc ... that the diocese are introducing mobile confession booths in an attempt to bring some...

      PAK reacted to kenwilltravel's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      This is a complicated question and you're going to get a lot of opinions on each side. Having walked the coastal twice and part of the Central once (Porto to Ponte de Lima), I can offer a few general comments: 1) From a pure walking point of...

      PAK reacted to Corned Beef's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      Good summary from @kenwilltravel. The coast is great for those like me that appreciate the sea views but there is not much more than that after you leave the Greater Porto area. Viana do Castelo is a worthwhile stop but cannot recall anything...

      PAK reacted to dugavski's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      I did a combination of Coastal, Central and Variante espiritual. The first day I started from the Porto cathedral, along the river to the ocean. Then nice walk to Villa Cha. Next day I joined Central from Vila do Conde to Rates. After Pontevedra...

      PAK reacted to David Tallan's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      I don't think I can beat Ken's summary of the differences. But I will chime in along the lines of dugavski above and say that it is possible to construct a mix. Many find that they prefer the walk out of Porto on the Senda Litoral along the river...

      PAK reacted to auburnfive's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      We are doing something similar to what David has suggested, taking in the historic towns of Barcelos, Ponte de Lima and Valenca, and then walking along the Minho to the Spanish coast, to A Guarda, Oia, Baiona, then through the Variante at...

      PAK reacted to NicoO's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      I followed some youtubers and from what i saw a switch from route to route seems to be rather easy (f.e. using public transport or walking over to one or the other.) . so you can walk both for a bit and than just keep on the route that you...

      PAK reacted to Saint Mike II's post in the thread Portuguese Central or Coastal with Like Like.
      Hola, @PAK I have not walked either camino but like you I have plans for Sept this year. My research is leading me to walking the coastal route, at least as far as the Spanish boarder. Based on fewer hills and the coastal scenery. Just a...
