    LIVE from the Camino My last Camino tomorrow Finistere/Muxia.

    It's a beautiful walk! If you have time, spend a night in Lires. Quiet and peaceful. Buen Camino!

    Finisterre to Muxia level of difficulty

    We walked the Finisterre to Muxia route about 2 weeks ago. It is a beautiful walk and highly recommended. The route is sign posted well. There were a couple of areas where we stopped to make sure we were on the right path, but not anymore than other areas of the Camino. The way is a mix of...

    Zabaldika! Is it it true?

    Oh I do hope so. I was very fortunate to spend my 65th birthday at Zalbaldika. I hope to return there in the next year or so. What a lovely group of sisters and hospitaleros. :)

    Can I use a liner only?

    I used 2 liners and walked in Sept/Oct. The inner liner is silk and I used the top to cover the provided pillow. That was comfortable for me and very light. I was only chilled at one place and the windows there were wide open.

    Train from Charles DeGaulle to St. John Pied de Port

    I took the train from Montparnasse to Bayonne which is a sweet little town to stay overnight. Took the train the next morning to SJPdP with a lot of other pilgrims, rested and ready to go. Stayed at Beilari in SJPdP for a wonderful start. Buen Camino.

    Update on Anniesantiago

    Thank you. Really, it's all good. I'm not stressed at all. I'm feeling very positive and grateful. Things could be so much worse! I'm lucky! You are in good hands Annie. Dr De La Melena is wonderful and Nathalie Johnson is too. They are both highly skilled surgeons and both are lovely...

    Best place to stay in Santiago De Compostela

    I stayed at the Last Stamp. Good albergue, centrally located, clean, well managed. Had the breakfast at San Martin one morning. Excellent!

    Foot pain before Camino - advice needed

    I'm sorry that you have had this concern just a week before you leave for your Camino! You have received some excellent advice above from seasoned pilgrim walkers! Choose what fits best for you. I had an ankle problem come up just before I left for the Frances 2 years ago. Others have...

    Best place to start after the Pyrennees

    I hope to return to the Frances in 2020. I'll likely start at Zabaldika, about 8 km before Pamplona. Lovely donativa albergue with a blessing for pilgrims in an old church. I celebrated my 65th birthday here, so a very special memory for me in 2017. Buen Camino...

    Scared to walk alone

    I walked alone, age 65, in the fall of 2017. Many women (and men) were walking solo. Several times, I didn't want to walk alone in the early morning darkness, so I asked a fellow pilgrim from the albergue where I was staying if I could walk with them until daylight. This worked out really well...

    Paris hotel for two nights?

    I agree with the Adenviat, hostal in a very central location and you can get a discount for being a pilgrim! And a stamp too. It was less than 40 euro and included breakfast. I was in a semi-private room and we had our own bathroom. I walked all over and saw a lot in 3 days. Enjoy Paris! Hop on...
