    (Bus) Strike in Santiago and wider Galicia

    Sorry If this question has been answered. I can't seem to find info on where to get bus info from Muxía to Santiago. Is there a website for schedules etc? Thanks!

    Albergue Lua in Negreira

    Please let me know if your experiences were recent as I'm curious if something has gone down hill here as I was very disappointed with this place

    Where/ who can I complain to? I would love to file one.

    Albergue Lua in Negreira

    I think it is important to point out that certain levels of cleanliness and facilities should be expected if you are paying for the said roof and bed. Having stayed in multiple alberges all the way from SJPDP to Santiago , you understand what cheap accommodation is. That said there Is literally...

    Albergue Lua in Negreira

    This is by far the worst alburge I have ever seen. I have walked from sjpdp to Santiago and have never seen anything this bad. First of all, they stand on the street and tell all pilgrims passing by that all the other alburges are full. They look shady for a reason - DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. LUA...

    Camino Portugues, or Camino Frances (again)?

    Thanks Mickey! I have decided to finish the camino from Leon - most likely via the Invierno route. Thanks!

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks everyone for your feedback! I have decided I will pick up the camino where I left off (in Leon), take a bus to Virgen del Camino and begin my walk from there! When I get to Ponferrada I will switch to the Invierno route - unless I am happy to stay on the frances. Will see how I go...

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks! I am still driving myself (and others) crazy with indecisions. I feel "pressure" (from no one but my own mind) to "have to" finish the Frances BUT my experiences were frustration with the crowds. Now i dont know what to do. Looked at Invierno from suggestions above and it looks...

    I stopped my Camino in Burgos....why...

    I can relate. Last year I walked from SJPP to leon (I had to stop there because of my schedule but I would have liked to have kept going). That being said - I was VERY annoyed when i got to Burgos. I hated that place. I was so sick of worrying about a place to stay and the groups of people...

    Camino Portugues, or Camino Frances (again)?

    Hi! What are your thoughts on Leon to Santiago VS porto to santiago? I am trying to decide between the two. I leave June 21st.

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks! I'll take a look at this as well. Ugh. Still not sure which to do!

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks! So am still in the land of indecision as to wether I should do the camino portugues (from porto) this Late June OR finish the frances (If I do though, id start in Astorga and then switch to the invierno). I made it to Leon last year from SJPP. From everything i've read the walk from...

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks! Of all the options you mentioned - which is the most scenic? I also LOVE small little towns versus cities and preferred staying in the small towns versus large end cities of the brieley plan. I do like to meet other travelers but not mobs. (no offence Italians, but yes, i'm referring...

    Finish Frances or Portugues

    Thanks for the reply! My favorite part of the Camino Frances was the first day over the pyranes and then the first section of the Maseta (near san bol) and the part to Ages was cool as well. Not sure how the other country sides compare? Would love to stay in character bnbs or something not...

    Finish Frances or Portugues
