    Looking for advice on long (Spanish) Camino routes

    Thank you @lindam, @Rick of Rick and Peg, and @lt56ny for the advice/suggestions. I've just started digging into them. I hadn't considered starting in France as my French is worse than my Spanish (and thats non-existant, but I've started learning in), but I'll dig into it and see.

    English Cinema in Santiago?

    Is there by any chance a cinema in Santiago that shows movies in the original language? Would quite like to see a couple of movies if they’re on.

    Transport to Lisbon

    Thanks for this thread. I am quite seriously looking to do Lisbon to Santiago (probably coastal route to keep temp down) when I finish the Camino Frances in a few days, but wasn’t sure how best to get to Lisbon. The answers are perfect!
