      Thank you all for this information! I am starting the Camino on the 7th of May if all goes as planned. (And if you want to hear God laugh? Tell him your plans). that aside, I am beginning to study and listen to some basic Spanish, learning enough...

      Taswegian Traveller reacted to J Willhaus's post in the thread Bar Etiquette with Like Like.
      I always clear my table (before and after is needed) and it usually gives me a chance to go inside and ask for a stamp (cello) or use the bathroom. On busy days, there may be someone waiting to sit at that table and I personally don't like to sit...

      Ok Pilgrims, I’m starting my first Camino (Frances) in a little over 2 weeks and am “wrapping up” my miscellaneous questions. This is a little trivial (no snarkiness, please): I’m a solo pilgrim. If I stop off at a Bar or Cafe and want a beer or...

      There is a custom of behaviour in much of Europe that is best described as a “custody of the eyes”. You do not look and you do not see. It’s a custom with deep, deep roots. Think “Susanna and the Elders”, Peeping Tom, the story of Siproites...

      Hi Dennis From your reply, I can't tell if you picked up on the humour (sarcasm?) of the reply from @Tincatinker If you did, yours was a perfect response. And, in any case, a gracious one. Lots of people on the forum ask questions which seem...

      I've walked both and also did the central from SdC to Porto. Continuity on a single route is important, but the coastal to Vila do Conde or Esposende before moving to the central, at Rates or Barcelos, replaces sub-urban commercial roadside...

      Taswegian Traveller reacted to HaveringRob's post in the thread Hill from Combarro with Like Like.
      My husband and I did it and it was a challenge, but we did it after a long day of walking. Use your treking poles! I would spend the night in Combarro or near there and stock up on water and snacks there, because there will be nothing on the...

      Taswegian Traveller reacted to TashH's post in the thread Route opinion with Like Like.
      Nowhere specifically. I had planned to take a rest day but found I didn’t need it. I walked a couple shorter days instead. Everywhere I walked through and stayed was lovely. Allow time to explore the Fortaleza de Valenca before crossing the...
