Hello pilgrim family,
I walked the Camino Portugues with my family in 2018 and finally got around to editing the final video of our walk into Santiago. It was an amazing journey where we grew closer and met so many amazing people.
I walked the Frances in 2012 solo, and was really looking...
I walked the Camino Portuguese from Porto this summer with my wife and 2-year old son. It was an incredible journey for all of us, and a nice return to the Camino for me after walking the Frances in 2012. I hope to put together a full length video of our walk in the future. Until then, here is a...
It's been a year now since I walked from St. Jean to Santiago and Finisterre. It's funny, I thought after a while I'd stop checking in with this forum and move on to other adventures. I just love coming back to hear the stories of those walking, and check in on the progress of those planning to...
It's almost been a year since I walked from St. Jean to Finisterre. My Camino Passport is easily my most cherished souvenir from along the Way. Every stamp brings back the memories of the location it represents. It's really tough to pick a favorite, but if you could only select one to share...
"The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follet was recommended to me after I had walked the camino this past summer. It's a fictional historical novel centered around the construction of a cathedral in 12th century England. It's account of daily life and construction technology of that era has left me...
I posted a topic named "Thoughts on photography and camera selection for the Camino" back in September, and had been messaged by a few forum members about using an iPhone to take pictures. I mentioned to a few that I had taken quite a bit of video as well. It's not the greatest video quality...
For those of us who love photography, the Camino presents a dilemma. Leaving behind the large print and low light capabilities of an SLR can be stressful. There's nothing worse than taking in the perfect sunset, only to have it rendered as a noisy mess on your point and shoot LCD. As someone who...
GuyA made a spreadsheet available with accommodations. I've made a map and color coded it. I'll be working on this in the next month or so, as I'll be walking in July. Hopefully this can be useful to someone. Click on each feature in the feature class to view it's contents. The points were...
Hello,
Does anyone know if a Camino Frances albergue address list exists (preferably in .xls or .xlsx)? I was hoping to make an interactive online ArcGis map for people to use when planning their Camino. People could also tag photos and leave suggestions at each point in the feature class...
