    Albuerge de Santa Clara in Vila do Conde - open?

    I suggest the Erva Doce guest house on the canal. Ask the owner to make you fresh sardine for dinner. You will enjoy a quiet night rest at this centrally located pension. I enjoyed it. Buen Camino.

    Pamplona Dinner Bed and Breakfast

    I stayed at the Yoldi for several days during San Fermin in 2019 and it was great.

    Everything is going wrong- help needed

    See there, you did it. Just like life, the Camino presents challenges (fraught with opportunity for victory) for those who press on. Many more challenges to come. Don't stop walking.

    Everything is going wrong- help needed

    I would just say that everything seems very right, except for one minor glitch. You are about to embark on the trek of a lifetime that very few in this world are able to take. I would suggest taking a breath, thinking of the many extraordinary things that are about to positively impact your...

    Ultimate Camino Scarf

    I'm preparing for my third Camino and each trip I go with less "stuff". I'm looking forward to traveling light. One thing that I will absolutely have (even if it's the ONLY item I bring-LoL) is my Shemagh. Middle East, Orient, Australia, Central America, Africa...the Shemagh has been my...

    Top Five Things I Hate About (returning from) the Camino…

    1. I miss my Camino friends! 2. I miss the beautiful people of Spain, and hearing the word, "Claro", a hundred times a day. 3. I miss the simplicity of walking and communicating with people from around the world. 4. I do NOT miss the blank stare I receive from people back home when I tell them...

    I got blisters...

    This is a post that will mean a lot more to people after they've walked the Camino awhile (maybe even the first day). Hopefully, they will remember your good advice to ease their suffering. I know my blister kit ended up looking a lot like yours (a lot of items I bought along the way). I hope...

    September challenges

    I was on the Camino Frances during all of September. Like Falcon said, I always found a bed. Sometimes you've gotta stop a little earlier or make a reservation. I wouldn't blame the Camino.

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    I have found that the most difficult part of returning home after 6 weeks on the Camino is missing the many new friends that I met along the way. I'm VERY thankful for social media to keep connected. I know my family, friends, and co-workers are tired of hearing me talk about the Camino...
