    Are Multiple compostelas possible for the same walk?

    After arriving Santiago yesterday and receiving my third compostela. (Norte, Portuguese and now English starting at Ribadeo getting credit for the Del Mar) I asked this question to the pilgrims office. It was confusing to them. The answer they gave was no. I could only get the compostela for one...

    What was left unused? What can be left behind?

    If you have camping items. I doubt you'll be able to get under 8kg. I could probably get by with one convertible pant and gym shorts, two of everything else, socks, underwear and shirts. Currently I'm carrying gym shorts (nice to sleep in), shorts, convertible pants and three of everything...

    No trekking poles in Porto

    I walked the Coastal in April. I was just fine without sticks. I don't feel you need them. I was glad to not have to carry them. 2 years ago on the Norte, I was glad to have them.

    Day 7. Start of the English Way. Train ride to Xubia, near Ferrol. Where my hotel was. The hotel had messaged me they the room was ready and a code for the door. This allowed me to get early, at 1430 and drop my bag. I then walked the 12 k to the docks at Ferrol and then train back to the hotel...

    DAY 6. The best day so far. Great views. The day started with me going to catch the train to Espasante which turned into a bus for whatever reason. Luckily for me to verify that I was supposed to get on the bus. I saw the same two workers from my hotel getting out of the bus. They were on the...

    Actually, my room is at Porto O Barquiero, not O Vicedo like I had Posted. DAY 5: I came up with a plan last night and it worked out. I arranged with the hotel for me to drop my bag off early in the morning. I caught the 8 o'clock train in Viveiro and took it to O Barquiero. I walked back to...
