    My experience of this was that the course was online. I loved playing my part as hospitalera in the CSJ albergue in Rabanal this year.

    Owning a Donativo

    Assuming you are British, unless you have an EU passport you will need to go through the appropriate regulations to stay in Spain/EU for more than 180days in a year (one of the impacts of Brexit). I’ve no idea though how this works if you are investing in the country by opening a “business”.

    Preparing for the Camino

    Complete the Capital Ring (78miles) or London Loop (150 miles) paths. Easily tackled in sections with public transport access at start and finish of each section. https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/walking/top-walking-routes

    If you arrive by plane, the bus between Bilboa and San Sebastián stops at the airport, so I’d recommend taking this leg of your journey into account.

    Easy Spanish radio?

    I’m in a similar situation and listen to various podcast. My favourites is ‘Nómadas’, a travel program from RNE. Intermediate learning podcasts I also use are ‘Español con Juan’ and ‘Espanolistos’ - this later is with a Colombian teacher.
