Hello,
My boyfriend and his mum want to do a very short and easy 4 day walk to Santiago on the camino in August. They want to walk say 15-20 km a day. Where would be a good place for them to start? She will be flying into Santiago then getting a bus to the starting location.
Thanks in advance...

Hello again,
I was hoping to come back to Santiago for my birthday in February 2006.
I have been looking at Ryanair flights (Sale on till midnight tonight) and noticed that the prices shoot up after the tenth of February. From £1.29/£4.99 to £54.
Is there a fiesta or something big...
Essex to Santiago
Hello,
If you are based in Essex, the easiest and cheapest route for you would be to fly from Stanstead airport straight to Biarritz using Ryanair, and returning from Santiago to Stanstead again using Ryanair.
Happy Travelling and hope the sun is shining down Essex way...
Hello,
Returned from another fantastic trip to Santiago, this time made easier by Ryanair. It is really one of the most fun cities I ever visited in Spain.
