Selfish? Self Indulgent?
Go! We spent a little over two months working our way from Montserrat (near Barcelona) to Finisterre, and the Camino was truly transformative for us (mostly in ways we never could have anticipated). Allow the Camino to take you in; you'll find your own meanings along the way. Like Robert, I...- econodan

What is the most you have walked in a day?
What is it about that Burgos-Hontanas stretch? Wasn't the longest we did, but it was a long day.

But every village had a public faucet, and the water is always safe to drink (as others have pointed out, Spain...- econodan

Which is the most scenic route?
I agree with Falcon about the beauty of both the Aragones and the Primitivo. But we're really mountain people, and so found the scenery along the Ruta del Salvador even more dramatic. The walking is great too. You can read more and see some pics on our blog here, and find some more photos...- econodan
