    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    I do hope that you will post a 'Live from the Camino' thread about your experience on this route, @chechakoman. Last year I diverted on a round trip by bike from Burgos to Covarrubias. I can highly recommend the Pension Galin in that lovely little town, seen here at the end of the street...

    The Camino will provide?

    "The Camino Provides" is the heading I use when posting live from the Camino. I have found it apt when considering the small kindnesses done by people I have met and the unexpected bits of good fortune I have experienced. I and most others I have encountered neither expect nor seek out such...

    Casa Ivar has abandoned me?

    Thank you! I’d be happy to, I got a little caught up with my luggage issue but otherwise it was challenging but so fun. I did make it to roncesvalles. Absolutely drenched the entire day. It was snowing at the summit of the valcarlos route. Spoke to some people who went Nápoleon and I thought...

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    There were at least 20 mattresses in the Fronton - I’m sure they could have stayed there, but regardless, they could not stay at Ventosa. Clearly some of the in between stages are filling up. I spent an afternoon plotting out the next week - and checking that I could get accommodations t the...

    LIVE from the Camino Kitchens in the Albergues in the Camino de Invierno

    We bought a small inexpensive pot at one of the Asian stores for use in the Xunta albergues last winter (did not work at one albergue that had an induction cooktop though, it worked in the rest). We carried it on a carabiner clip on the outside of the pack. A small 2 person paella pan was...

    LIVE from the Camino Kitchens in the Albergues in the Camino de Invierno

    @Filippo05ff - I’ve included kitchen descriptions for most stages in my live from the Camino thread. Most are fairly well equipped (Villavieja, Xagoaza, Monforte, Rodeiro, Lalin, Silleda) until you hit the typical Xunta albergues (Diamondi, Bandeiras, Outeiro). If you have a knife and ideally a...

    León to San Martin del Camino alternative route

    Live from the camino: I walked the camino alternativo to La Milla del Paramo. The road up to San Martin del Camino has very low traffic. Weather was awful, heavy winds with rain. Got another 3,5km to SMdC and I would not recommend to it like that 😂 if I would have known better I would sleep...

    LIVE from the Camino My First Camino Adventure: From Sarria to Samos Monastery

    I thought: live from the camino? Posted in 2022? Then I read the last three or four posts. The best book, indeed, the imprint of the steps, the journey, the camino. Wise input from @VNwalking . Actually, my guess is no guidebook is needed. May your pilgrimage be deeply meaningful and help you...

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    Are there only 4 beds there or did people just not show up after they had booked? I know that has been a problem in the past couple of years as well. We stayed at Sotes, which also has a limited number of beds in a small private albergue. Najera Municipal should be opening again in a few days as...

    Day 1 - To Montserrat we go ...... 4 yrs since the last Camino, older, less brain cells, easily confused usually followed by a touch of frustration and sometimes panic :) . I left Coventry, UK at 6.30am and made it to Barcelona's Plaza Espanya by 2.00pm, and also managed to get my folding...

    Oloron-Sainte-Marie to Jaca (not quite live from the camino )

    I've just finished walking Toulouse to Jaca on my pilgrimage from Rome to Santiago which I'm in doing gradually 3 weeks at a time. I spent a lot of time reading the posts about this section and really appreciated @Juspassinthru live updates who was doing this section when I arrived in Toulouse...

    LIVE from the Camino Here we goooo!

    Thanks so much!❤️ Weather was pretty cold and rainy when we started out, and now it’s cool in the mornings and evenings, but hot in the afternoons. We checked the weather every day before we walked. Layering is key. If there was any rain in the forecast, we wore or brought our rain jackets and...

    7 day Camino - Sarria to Santiago 110KM

    FYI regarding budget, For air fare, meals, lodging ground transportation, etc. last winter We averaged $2,150 per person for 2 weeks, however, that involved no luggage transfer and all stays in albergues except in Santiago and Madrid. In Madrid we had an AirBNB which also helped stretch the...

    7 day Camino - Sarria to Santiago 110KM

    You don't say when you intend to go. The busiest time on this route will be in August when Europeans have their vacations so a lot more Spaniards on the Camino. April/May and September are also busy times. June is a pretty good month to shoot for. Still busy, but less so. Lots of Sarria to...

    The one thing I should have done before I left for the Camino

    Yes, and if you have a lot of Social Media friends, maybe wait to post your trip info and photos AFTER you get home...I don't count the forum here as I still want to see your "Live from the Camino" posts and I don't really know exactly where you live anyway...(except for Phil.)
