    How Do You End Your Camino

    When I arrive in Santiago, the next day, I always leave for Fisterra and end up in Muxia and there if I have some days left I spend them relaxing in the calm of the village ready to return to Santiago for my flight, with a light heart at the thought of having accomplished my pilgrimage. :)

    Pole Tip Protectors - A Serious matter - There are tips and tips

    Hi Robo I bought this type here about 4 years ago from Decathlon. They don't seem to sell them anymore - perhaps because they last forever. I've just found them on Wish and ordered some more. Hope I've been of some help. Buen Camino Ernesto

    When was your first Camino?

    Don't worry It56ny: you remember very well and I'm glad I'm not the only one. We walked with our rucksacks and made fun of the one who took taxi, bus, train, or had his backpack carried. Good times gone for ever :)

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Portugal’s covid status updated here

    peregrina2000, the lockdown is not the only way to reduce infections but it will be the vaccine that is about to be given almost all over the world, so patience is still the best weapon for the moment.
