I am leaving this week but don't want to make reservations in Santiago. I agree that it creates an agenda. Also, I want to be free to stay with people that I have met or travel to the coast or Portugal afterwards. My only reservation is at the Madrid airport on the night before my return flight.

I highly recommend Melanie's app. I leave in April and it has been great learning tool. Also Google earth has mapped most of the route that is in main roads.
