Hi there, unfortunately hotels pensions all places can have bed bugs.. My Camino that I returned from today was ruined due to the severity of the bites I received all down one side of my body... Treat everything with permethrin and if you spot any bugs report them immediately.,
Hi Nancy, when do you start?
We are starting in Burgos on July 8th and walking to Sarria then bussing it to Santiago, we are working backwards as we started in Sarria last year and ended in Santiago so already have our Compostella.

O Acivro was lovely, they even have a swimming pool! We stayed in the old original building rather than the apartments. Huge oldy worldy room with oak beams, wooden shutters looking over the trail. Our bed was huge...!!!!
Casa Garcia in Gonzar-converted farm buildings behind Bar Gonzar, they have an Albergue plus private rooms, beautiful..!!! Plus after the long hike up from Portomarin you'll appreciate it..!
I've just returned from my Sarria to Santiago Camino and I did not meet one disgruntled St Jean hiker. In fact, I spent 2 dinners with a long distance walker, John from Glasgow and enjoyed sharing our stories of our walks, each very different. Relax and enjoy YOUR Camino...
I am shortly due to become a Cleanagrino, I will happily share my shower gel and deodorant with anyone who would like some as I believe that my journey, short tho it may be will be all the cleansing I require, hey, I may even throw in a fresh t shirt..!
Keep going Derwen, we leave Sarria on 23rd, if we meet I'd be happy to walk a few k,s with you... My sons name is Rhys, I haven't seen him for 3 years, I guess he's taking his own path.. keep listening and absorbing what's around you, Buen camino..!
I may regret taking it but it's my safety net if I can wean myself away from it I'll just go with intuition..! You could manage with just the app.. Buen Camino..!
