    Hospitalero at Samos monastery

    Hi Natasha, SYates is right, I applied in november and made a training course in Logroño in February, then, they deploy you to an Albergue based on your preferences and their needs. Ultreia!

    Hi again Sebastian (sorry for not trying to type your name in your Mother language but I dont know if my keyboard allows it) It is very weird, since there are about 600 kms from Valencia to Zamora. May your software have any bug or something in that way? There is quite normal (as you know since...

    A Way now too travelled?

    Hi namesakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ! ;) I do agree with you, other seasons apart from summer are (IMHO) better to walk the Camino, also different tracks, not only Frances, but as an example ( my favorite one) Primitivo ( my first primitivo was made with snow). As I said before, in my first post, I...

    A Way now too travelled?

    Insulin

    More news... I have been in a pharmacy and they told me that you can purchase it (w/o prescription) if you pay the full price, 46,97 euros Novorapid and 78,52 Levemir. If you do have the prescription it is about 5 euros each... They told me that you have to check if there is any agreement...

    Meeting locals along the trail

    Hi you all!!! Please do not miss the opportunity of a chat with any oldman sharing a cup of wine they are the voice of the experience and they provide us some ideas comparing the "old" and "new" camino. But not only old people, although we, the Spaniards are not perfect Shakespeare's language...
