    I have just completed the Camino Madrid. The penultimate Albergue at Grajal de Campos is well worth the stay (10 euros +2 euros for sheets). It is in the stables of an old palace. This leaves you 5.9 klm to Sahagun. I saw 2 other people on the...

    Hello Imans - I completely understand what you are saying and have the same feelings. I wish you well and the peace you need

    it is not a question of preference. Some people walk through grief. Believe it or not, it is not uncommon on the Camino. To expect these pilgrims to walk a Camino that is "cheerful ecstatic exuberant festive heartwarming joyful jubilant merry...

    I relate to Iman's situation. I too will be seeking solitude when I do my Frances in September - October. I was dreading the "Camino family" involvement, so the comments have relieved my concerns. I had not walked seriously - and I use that term...

    Hey, I am about to walk my first Camino. Solo. I truly understand you, but in a different way. I like people (for a while😅) but I like nature best on my own. But to experience the peregrina-feeling I start at the Frances, St Jean PdP, walk to...

    Hi Imans, I am walking the Camino Madrid now. Very few people! Once I arrive at the Frances I will most likely continue the Salvador route from Leon, and then the Primitivo. I don’t know about the the other two yet, but if solitude is what you...
