    Woman Traveling solo

    I went solo in 2017. Never regretted it. Always opportunities to walk with people you e met the night before in the albergues. Will be going again and absolutely solo again.

    All the single ladies, all the single ladies

    Wifi availability

    What is the availability of Wifi along the Camino Frances? And before one of you asks "why"......to keep in touch and calm an aging/ailing family member. I am trying to decide between getting a Spanish SIM card; add a travel plan to my existing coverage in Canada or use WhatsApp. Thanks.
