Hi all, I’m looking for historical backing for my personal observations of the Camino as a way for people (including me) to wring our our grief. Does anyone know of any historical figures who’ve done the Camino to process grief or stories beyond the personal to support my experience that there...

Hi Pilgrims, do the auberges accept payment by visa? Or are there a lot of ATMs along the path? Basically, I'm looking to not carry loads of cash, from Sahagun to Santiago. Is visa accepted?
Thank you so much! So, I'll aim to sort it out when I land in Madrid Barajas. Is signage pretty clear to get to T4, then Chamartin, then the renfe ticket office? Thank you. Buen Camino.

I thought so too, but Sahagun doesn't exist on the list of ALSA stops, and I keep getting a message that renfe trains aren't booking at all at this time. What dya think -- ideas to get to Sahagun? Much appreciated, & Buen Camino!
