    August heatwave on camino

    Thank you so much! The news on tv sounds critical, so I wanted to get the real life perspective. The umbrella sounds like a good idea - I didn’t think of that… Thank you to everyone who took their time to respond to my inquiry. Kindly appreciated

    Quick Question about the Stamps

    Interestingly enough, I was not asked by the clerk what my reasons were - perhaps it is now filled out in the online questionnaire that we have to fill out before getting the Compostela. I truly don’t remember, but I definitely wasn’t asked about it by the clerk…

    Planning the journey can be more stressful than the journey itself. I spontaneously planned my camino and was on the plane within 5 days of coming up with the idea… with so much time ahead of you, I’m certain your trip will be as flawless as can be… btw. I really loved the HiHome hostel in...

    Sexual harassment Camino Portugues oct 2021
