Dear Camino family,
In these dire times of home isolation and covid-19 pandemic, I thought I would turn lack of mobility into daydreaming about past (and future!) mobility, and be helpful to somebody else – who perhaps is planning their Camino Frances to celebrate the end of the pandemic! Below...

Hello,
My partner and I completed our Camino Finisterre in October 2018. Below are the places we stayed at with a little review which may be helpeful to others:

This is so helpful, thanks everyone!
We have just found out that for the same price of a flight Rome-Madrid we can actually fly from Rome to Oviedo! Our plane lands at 8.30 pm so we should have plenty of time to get the airport shuttle into town.
Can anyone give a personal recommendation for...
