    Racial discrimination on the Camino

    That’s what I loved about my two Caminos..the equality. We are all tired, excited, dirty, joyful and EQUAL.

    10 day Camino de Madrid - Stages and reflections

    Those distances are a bit too long for me; are there other places to stay in between? I'd love to try this Camino but not able to walk that far daily. Thank you.

    My Pack Is Too Heavy: Woe Is Me!

    My friend and I (2 females) walked for 15 days on Portuguese coastal route, as well as 15 more travelling around in Morocco and Gibraltar carrying 11 lb packs, with sleeping bags. It was wonderful and we never missed a thing. Other pilgrims envied our light, small packs wherever we went. Change...

    Walking Porto to Santiago late Sept/Early Oct

    We walked along the coast in May and loved every minute. Yes, the sea on your left and the sun on your back. Both over 70 so 18 km a day was our comfort zone. Some hairy highway crossings and sometimes hotels because we couldn't find an albergue but still cheaper than our Frances Camino. Totally...

    looking for info/experiences on the Camino Portugués March/April

    Walked from Porto to Santiago along the coast until Vigo when we followed Brierley's guide in May, 2014. It was wonderful; ocean on your left and sun on your back. Two + 70 year old females carrying 10 lb. packs. Not as crowded as French way but still a 'pilgrimage'. Albergues were clean and...

    2nd Camino-portugues

    Yes, Oia was a quaint little place with an imposing sea wall. A horse clip clopped past our window on the cobbled street. We stayed in most of those places too. And the little ex school house albergue in Barro/Portello that Brierley mentions in his book. That was a truly Camino experience not to...
