    Albergue query

    As others have said Ray n Rosa site is a great source of information on the Madrid Albergues and they are really helpful and up to date. Their "acodiga tradicional" (albergue) is in Manzanares el Real which is early in the walk so worth staying with them to get all up to date info. We did the...

    Did you do the Olvidado SanSalvador and Primitivo in one go or as separate caminos? We are planning to walk the Olivdado in early June. We did the Camino Madrid last year - below is a ten minute, very quick link to our overview. Too hot really as we walked late June early July - but we really...

    LIVE from the Camino Camino Mozárabe, Almería to Granada

    We walked this about 5 years ago but in the hot weather. 42 celsius when we reached Cordoba. Looking at your pics brings back memories. Have you met many other pilgrims? We did not meet any at that time. Link below to a short video of that walk - Buen Camino.

    Caminos Teresianos, De la Cuna al Sepulcro (From the Cradle to the Grave)

    Thanks Elle for your assistance - your info was really useful and it was through you that we first learned about the Teresianos. We walked most of it in May of this year. It was getting rather warm even then but we really enjoyed it. Below is a short 10 minute video of the first five days.

    Sleeping with valuables

    I have never met any peregrinos who have had stuff stolen but have never done any of the crowded caminos so maybe it is different there. However we have met more than a few peregrinos who have left stuff behind in various places, albergues, bars, tiendas, rest spots etc. We have a routine...

    I walked from Almeria to Santiago this summer. Ask me anything.

    Thanks Bill - yes great packs - I am currently on to my second one. Both my wife and I have one and the front pockets make life so much easier.

    Where do you carry your valuables?

    Where you carry depends of where you are. In towns and when stopped or in Albergue always round my neck or inner pocket. Out on the "open" road for comfort at bottom of backpack sometimes or in front pocket ( I have an AARN pack that you can see in my pic). I think the more important thing is to...

    I walked from Almeria to Santiago this summer. Ask me anything.

    We walked the Mozarabe from Almeria to Granada in June 2016 and did not see another Peregrino in that time so I unless it has become more popular it might be a fairly solitary walk. It was a great Camino but quite difficult at times, probably the hardest we have done, partly because of the heat...

    LIVE from the Camino RussB’s Camino Mozárabe from Almería

    Russ are you in Quentar? Following your comments with interest as my wife and I did the Mozarabe in 2017, but in July and it was a little warm. Did you meet many other peregrinos as I think we only met one on the whole camino

    A slight change in the air?

    Yes we actually need to get permission to leave. I don't think to go "caminoing" would count as a good enough reason.
