    I would have done someting different than the Camino.

    I JUST GOT BACK. I STARTED IN SARRIA. I DID IT TO MEET NEW INTERESTING PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD. IN GENERAL I FOUND PRETTY PROVINCIAL MINDED PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE BECAUSE IT WAS THE "COOL" THING TO DO AFTER THAT HOLLYWOOD MOVIE IN WHICH THE MAIN CHARACTER WENT THROUGH SOME KIND OF PERSONAL...

    Starting in Sarria October 25th. I am from Miami Beach...

    and this is my first Camino and I'll be walking solo. I'm planning to take it really easy. I have several questions: How long does it take and where do I go to get to get an SIM cell phone card for Spain in Sarria?

    Favorite private accommodation between Sarria and Santiago

    I want to take it very easy. I will be arriving in Sarria on October 23, and need to be in Santiago November 6. I have plenty of time. I don't want to kill myself walking. Walking 3 or 4 hours every day, will there be places to stay? Do I need to book private rooms in advance during that time...

    Buying and selling my backpack in Santiago de Compostela

    I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS A PLACE TO BUY A NEW OR USED BACKPACK IN SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA. I WOULD NOT WANT TO BRING IT FROM THE STATES OR CONTINUE TRAVELING WITH IT AFTER I REACH SANTIAGO UNLESS I HAVE TO. DO PILGRIMS SELL THEIR EQUIPMENT AFTER THEY FINISH THE CAMINO? THANK YOU. BUEN CAMINO!

    I want to walk from October 18th to November 4th to Santiago

    Thank you so much!! Now I know better about what to expect in terms of time, distances and places to stay. Although my perspective will probably change once I am really there. Buen Camino wherever you are now! Al

    Staying in individual rooms.

    I am assuming that you don't need a sleeping bag in hostals and hotels, right? Will private rooms be less expensive the last two weeks in October from Ponferrada to Santiago? Buen Camino!

    I want to walk from October 18th to November 4th to Santiago

    I want to really take my time by walking for 3 weeks 4 or 5 hours per day , at the most, at a normal pace.Where would I need to start? Would there be single rooms to stay (and how much would they be) after walking for such a short time? How would I get to that starting point from Madrid? Would...
