      We don’t get too many “live from the Levante” threads, but I’m betting that there is a group of slightly hard-core peregrin@s here on the forum who will enjoy every post you care to make. Wishing you a wonderful walk on this most wonderful Camino!

      I was speaking with a veteran Camino walker in Oloron St Marie the another day and he mentioned that young people in Spain want a credential on their resume. I was surprised as I had never heard of that before.

      Like Flog says, the GR is well marked in both directions. And yes, try to stay in the Sarrance monastery. I bet you can. Have footwear with a good lug sole. The route along the river is eroding in some very steep areas and you don't want to...
