Yeah, but I love my Woobie. Especially now that they have a zip and can be used as a bag or a blanket. Having said that, I took my snugpack bag which only weighed slightly more than the woobie.
I would often use the Booking.com app to identify a potential place to stay and then check to see if it had a way to book directly with the Albergue.
I used Wise Pilgrim, Camino Ninja, and Booking.com to plan the next two days and would book what looked good for the next day. Occasionally I...
Finished Primitivo route yesterday. Really felt a bit lightheaded and just absorbed the moment. Then saw a group of people I had walked for days with and the introspection gave way to shared joy on the accomplishment.
So, satisfaction, happiness, and a sense of a job well done. I actually got...
Literally just picked up my compostela and these instructions were spot on!
I would have been very confused if I had just walked up and tried to work it out myself.
Thank you very much for posting this.
There seem to be some beds available. Though you may want to book the day before and day after hospitalers since those are choke points with very limited alternatives in the immediate area.
Ended up taking a recovery/rest day in Tineo. Nice place, great atmosphere. A few old injuries started playing up and I was running out of juice.

Stopped at Paladin for lunch. Sin gluten (gluten free) is on the menu! Something I have been worrying about since I was diagnosed two months ago.
I’ll be topping up my water supply from the fuente, another first. A bit tired, hills here seem to have higher gravity than the ones back home, but...
I am in Oviedo at the moment. I have booked here, Grado, and Salas because I wanted to get a feel of just how busy it is.
I’ll be checking the municipals when I stop just to see if the bed rush is a problem right now. I’ll pass on what I discover.
one thing you might want to consider is that...
