    Thanks for the tip!!

    Vodafone - Setting for crossing from Portugal to Spain

    So, that's pretty much the same thing that happened to me. Vigo was the city where I got the new SIM, and the clerk there said something similar to me. Interesting. It was only another 15 or 20 Euro, so not a huge deal.

    Vodafone - Setting for crossing from Portugal to Spain

    You'd think that the Spain Vodafone store would have helped me with the problem, but better for them to make a sale, I reckon.

    Vodafone - Setting for crossing from Portugal to Spain

    Maybe that was the problem? I ended up buying another Vodafone card in Spain which worked fine.

    Vodafone - Setting for crossing from Portugal to Spain

    I searched but wasn't able to find an answer. This past summer I bought a 2 week Vodafone card at OPO for 20€. It worked great in Portugal but stopped working when I crossed into Spain. Does the OPO Vodafone store sell a SIM that works in both Portugal and Spain?

    Reserve lodging ahead or wing it day by day on the Camino Portugues?

    Hi Lizzie. I walked the coastal this past June. It is so beautiful. You are going to love it! I booked my first night well ahead, but after that, I booked the next night either the night before or the day of. There was always availability doing it that way, so I imagine in September it would be...

    Any advice for when you want to quit?

    Definitely don't be afraid to take a bus between cities, even a few times. I injured my foot on my camino, and that's what I did. It was tremendously helpful. Take a rest day when you can, massage your feet and knees every night. Take care of yourself, good luck to you and buen camino. ❤️

    Social anxiety

    Just here to say that you're not alone. I have social anxiety and one of my biggest concerns on my Camino was staying with other people in albergues. I often felt awkward in the more communal albergues where people were cooking and having dinner together. For the most part, though, other...

    What surprised you the most?

    The first 2-3 days I got pretty grumpy (14 days is going to be too long...I think I fractured my foot...my clothes stink...etc). What surprised me is how much I missed it when it was over! Portugues, Porto to Santiago

    LIVE from the Camino Musings from the first few days from Lisbon

    I totally understand and the same happened to me during my recent Camino Portugues. I tried to keep up with some North American pilgrims that I met, completely overdid it, and possibly stress fractured my foot. I finished the journey with the help of a bus ride or two. I totally get the self...

    Cruise Ship After the Camino

    I actually just did this...finished the Camino in June, stayed 2 days in Santiago, took trains to Barcelona, stayed 2 days there, then caught an NCL cruise from Barc. You can also fly to Barcelona from SDC. Greece was not on our cruise itinerary but I'm sure it is on some. It was an amazing...

    LIVE from the Camino Last Day Walking Blues

    Thanks for this thread. I arrived in Santiago at noon today after a 12 day Camino Portugues. I sat in front of the cathedral crying for 45 minutes, then went to the pilgrims office to get a stamp. I also sat in the chapel at the pilgrim's office for a while...they have a video playing with...
