      Me too. You wouldn't need to be very close to hear me complaining on the way down from the Alto de Perdon or the descent through El Acebo to Molinaseca. Probably wouldn't need to understand much English to get the gist of my complaints either!

      Other way round here! You can here me muttering to myself when I have to go downhill ;). Uphill for me.

      You're of course right that 4km/h overall is not really a slow pace, probably more an average one. I guess I still consider myself "slow", because I am still much slower uphill and tend to stop often / take many breaks. I was really slow on my...

      One of my most amazing mornings on the Camino :) I got to the top shortly after sunrise, and was quickly accosted by some French tourists who had me doing various pilgrim poses for their photos!

      Some people don't understand why people walk the same route again. Some people don't understand why people won't. If hear a great song, I don't say "That was a great song. I never want to hear it again. There are too many other great songs out...

      Camino Portugues, at least when I walked it from Lisbon to SdC a few years ago, was mostly populated by German pilgrims. Most of those I met and talked to could speak more or less only German or English. Or only German. But it seemed the ancient...

      Please take some Portuguese with you. All of the small business owners and other residents along the Camino do not speak English, and it can be kind of awkward to have to do Google translate to ask a simple question and then understand the answer.
