    Bus from Santiago bus station to airport

    Hi all, Sorry, a bit confused. Sleeping in Albergue Estacion. What is the nearest stop for bus 6a? I am a bit confused by ‘Horreo (Estacion)’ in the schedule - google maps shows a few different options. Also, is it for sure you cant get a bus from the bus station itself? Bus lines to Lugo...

    Finisterre in rain

    Hi all, At this stage looks like we are going to finish in SdC on Friday, our flight home is only Monday night. The weather forecast doesnt look to be promising - showers over the whole weekend. Our original plan was to bus to Finisterre and spend two nights there, but now I wonder what we...

    Break O’Cebreiro climb

    Thanks! Never heard about it before. Looked into it, sounds interesting, but unlikely manageable for someone who never rode - after two hours on the horseback, i am afraid we would get even more tired ;) Not that they didnt train, just not in hills. They are lookimg to the mountains...

    Break O’Cebreiro climb

    Hi all 💝 I am on the Camino now, my parents (68) join me in a few days from Ponferrada. Though they are quite fit, they are not used to hilly terrain. Also, as I want to send their bags upfront in the first few days, i will need to prebook accommodation for the night, so not much flexibility...

    Second-hand walking poles

    T Thanks, Robo, all this makes perfect sense. And sometimes indeed the recycling concept is out of place and not doable without what you called ‘other sources’. I just was hoping that something might have changed from this side and Spain’s authorities responsible for maintenance of the camino...

    Second-hand walking poles

    Hi all, Just wondering if there is an option of ordering donated walking poles to be delivered to the starting point somehow? Travelling with hand-luggage only. I will start from Burgos, my parents join me from Ponferrada. So three pairs would be left after in SdC. I do not mind bying, just...

    CF in April with parents - logistics/gear

    Thanks! I use Buen Camino app, i beleive, all of them are very handy and similar in functionalities. I’ve checked Borda, its already fully booked out for the day I’m looking, so we might be stuck with Orisson, though i read reviews from the recent years, does not sound very favourable, they...

    CF in April with parents - logistics/gear

    thank you so much @C clearly, i do not mind and really appreciate it. My parents are travelling from Latvia, so no jetlag for them, as for me, last time I remember i was surprisingly good the first days (operating on pure excitement ;)) and started to feel the jetlag on Day 3 only 😎 My parents...

    CF in April with parents - logistics/gear

    Hi everyone 👋 Merry Christmas! Looking for advice on a few things. Back in October 2018 I did SJP to Burgos, planned to continue in 2020 with my parents and teenage daughter, but we all know the reason why it didnt happen ;) Now want to restart again. The plan is to start on 31 March from Burgos...

    My (somewhat vague) predictions for when Spain will open again

    The question here would be not only if Spain let us in, but also whether Australia will let us out... Thanks for the update, Ivar, much appreciated.

    Train and bus schedule.

    MonBus used to have a direct route to Sarria at around 3pm, weekdays. It doesn't show it anymore, even though Rome2Rio still advises about it. Their webpage doesn't let to chose Sarria as a bus station at all now, neither from nor to Sarria. I emailed them last week and was said that schedules...

    The Introverted Pilgrim

    Thank you for bringing it up, Dave. Probably funny at my age, but one of the things I was hoping for, that Camino could "heal" my introversion :) It didn't. Though I enjoyed meeting new people, very much appreciated helpfulness and Camino spirit, I felt very awkward and unease my first night in...
