    Best 5-6 Day Route for Last 100-120km in September

    You thought of Finisterre- Muxia - Santiago loop?(or do it in reverse order) Very pretty Camino (imo). Full loop's around 210 km but you could adjust the start point to reduce the distance to fit your available time, and still arrive in Santiago as your final destination. ( I presume that the...

    Do you drop any personal restrictions on Camino?

    Whilst at home, I tend not to walk in to town with my underwear hanging on the outside of my bag. Tried it once . . . People can be so unkind . . . . . . A positive was getting some great recommendations for therapists in the local area 🤣

    Camino Ninja

    Just came back from using it on Camino Ingles/Camino Finisterre and worked fine. I tend to use the map feature to check if I've wandered off route, and find the interim distances between cafes etc useful when deciding if/when to give in to the urge to stop as soon as a cafe appears on the way!

    Camino by Coach

    In a word, 'No'🙂 ( I knew that I could rely on you to cut through the philosophical replies Trecile! 😉)

    Camino by Coach

    I still think anyone who has been walking all day carrying a full pack would be slightly annoyed at what I witnessed. Each to their own I suppose.

    Camino by Coach

    To paraphrase Stephen King's musings on being an author; there is a big difference between wanting to write a book, and wanting to say you have written a book. I can see similarities with Camino's . . .

    Camino by Coach

    Just finished walking the Camino Ingles/Camino Finisterre ( now languishing in the Seminario Menor in Santiago) I witnessed something a few days ago that I simply have to share. Walking with two friends in the middle of the Spanish countryside, we came upon a table with fruits/ coffee/ water etc...

    I may have broken my leg! Pls help in Pontevedra!!!

    Speak to the staff wherever you are staying; they'll advise on where to go to get it checked out. They will be a lot better option to help you rather than someone on the forum. 👍

    Invierno to SDC rather than Sarria

    Sshhh! You're supposed to keep it to yourself! 🤣

    LIVE from the Camino Jensjaunt on the Portuguese Coastal

    We all have bad days, but 'Bomb Camino' seems a bit of an over - reaction! 🤣

    Medication woes

    I take beta blockers, asprin, antacids amiodarone, ramipril (stops me going into cardiac arrest again) and I also 'carry' a defibrillator/pacemaker implant in case the previous stuff doesn't work! Always somebody worse off though . . right? 🙃

    Airport buses - changes to services

    Probably a silly question, but I'm flying in to Santiago next week and have a coach to Ferrol booked from Santiago main bus station. Is this the same bus station that the airport shuttle ( Linea 24) will drop me off at? I can't remember if there is more than one bus station in SDC . . 🤔

    Camino Portugués in September

    I walked it in September last year and it was OK. You don't say which Camino you are taking though. I walked the Central route, and the Espiritual Variente. Didn't have a problem with accommodation; I just booked for the following day. It does get busier after Tui as this is a popular start...

    Re: Current Lunch Prices

    Duolingo tried to put a course together, but after many months of effort, realised that there were just TOO many differences. They decided that the the old saying that ' America and England are two nations, separated by a common language' was more accurate than they initially thought 😉

    Difference in walking Litoral to Central route

    Boardwalks played havoc with my walking poles though. One of my pole street feet is still under the boardwalk near Labruge. If anyone finds it, give me a shout 🤣

    New to the Camino

    Another great app is 'Camino Ninja', worth giving it a look. You'll be fine . . . It's only a bit of a walk carrying a backpack 🙃 Buen Camino

    A New Way To Walk The Camino

    I thought 'techno trousers' were something you attended raves in, in the 90's 🤣
