    Finishing my Camino and feeling incomplete.

    Sorry to have missed you, @cbeckham! Congratulations on finishing and yes, it's totally normal to feel a bit "lost" and disoriented once you've arrived in Santiago, especially when you have to turn around pretty quickly and head home. Hopefully you can make it back to the Camino soon! Just a...

    Maybe a rude question! How old are you?

    Never seen that video. So funny! 😁 And clean.

    Maybe a rude question! How old are you?

    Young people tend to catch me off guard these days. First of all, both our 23-year-old teammate and our teenage son laughed hysterically when they saw this video: (Seriously - what?! And why does this video have 13 million views?) And about 10 years ago, we hosted a bunch of college students...

    Maybe a rude question! How old are you?

    I'm one of the younger folks on the Forum, and I have so enjoyed being here over the last 13(!) years. I think the older you get, the more you learn what to take dead seriously and what to have a little fun with. You all teach me many things about handling things on the Camino and in life, and...

    Bar Etiquette

    Great question @montyhiker. In Galicia, I usually sit down and wait for a server to come take my order. At times I've gone to the bar and ordered something, but I honestly can't remember the last time I took my own plates/cups to a table - usually the bartender would take the order at the bar...

    Camino Ninja

    Hi @Frankybaby66: Recent news came out about the Camino Ninja app: https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/good-news-about-camino-ninja.79578/post-1226054 I think you can safely update it, but let us know if not. Good news is it's free anyway :) The developers that took over from...

    Staying in Santiago While Volunteering?

    Hi @TorontoGMan, we're looking forward to having you in July! I know you've been in touch with our teammate, J., so it's nice for me to meet you here on the Forum! Our volunteers have stayed in a variety of places, based on their budget and preferences: - pilgrim rooms (top floor) in San Martin...

    Having a Camino Birthday

    Happy Birthday! If you haven't seen the movie Ocho Apellidos Vascos yet, I totally recommend it. This romcom was the highest-grossing Spanish movie ever when it was released a few years ago, and it's hilarious. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Affair_(2014_film) I believe you can still...

    Day trips from Santiago?

    A couple of other beautiful places to visit on the west coast of Galicia: The old Celtic ruins Castro de Baroña (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castro_de_Baroña) and nearby town Porto do Son. You may need a rental car for this one, though. Isla de Arousa, which is a walk across the bridge from...

    Latest guidebook for the Norte

    Hi Hilary! :) You can see the Camino del Norte guidebooks that Ivar carries here: https://www.santiagodecompostela.me/en-us/collections/camino-del-norte-items Nate used Cicerone's guide by Dave Whitson (@Dave) and Laura Perazzoli twice on his Camino jaunts and appreciated having it. I don't...

    Pilgrim House opening tomorrow for 2023

    Hey everyone, Just a note that Pilgrim House will close for 2023 this Sunday, December 3, and be closed until March of 2024. Usually we have a Christmas Eve party and then we close up for the year, but this year it's a bit earlier than usual due to staffing schedules. It has been a wonderful...

    A Coruna question

    Absolutely! I lived there for a few years and it's a beautiful city with lots to explore. If you can find an apartment near Playa de Riazor or Playa del Orzán, your better half can walk to: - Museums such as the Domus, the Museo de Bellas Artes (fine art museum), the Casa das Ciencias, etc -...

    Such big news! We’ll miss you guys in Iberia but we wish you all the best in your heart’s home. ❤️❤️

    Luggage Storage pricing question....

    If Ivar goes with a daily rate this is a great idea, especially since we sometimes see Ivar running around to go pick up a package if companies tried to deliver it and he wasn’t there. :DThis flat rate would help compensate him for his time, even if not all the packages warranted running around...

    @Camino Chrissy We headed to the US in July 😃. I can’t remember why we didn’t get to connect - maybe I wasn’t working that day? Would love to see you next time you walk!

    I just saw this thread! You all are so sweet! Yes, we’re working from the US for a few months, and I’m taking a break from moderating as it was too hard to juggle everything. But I’ll be back on the Mod team early next year if all goes to plan. 😊 In the meantime, do stop by Pilgrim House...

    Bag transfer from Monte do Gozo

    I’d also recommend Correos and have them deliver to the post office on Rua Franco. Buen Camino on your last day!
