    Hot?

    I’m on the Portuguese right now and desperately want to go wander around the gorgeous old part of Pontevedra (3 days south of SdC) but it’s too hot. 😭

    Husband wants to come with me!

    Sorry, I haven’t written anything. On day four, heading to Pontevedra tomorrow. Still dealing with this cold so no extra energy to do any above survival mode. 😜

    Husband wants to come with me!

    It hasn’t been too busy so far. I thought August was the month the Spaniards took off? July wasn’t by choice. I’m attending a retreat in a Monastery in Toulouse in August so thought I’d do this first’on the way’. We’re alternating staying in albergues one night and private rooms the next, is...

    How hot is "hot"?

    Hi, I’m a Canadian walking right now. I’ve been leaving very early in the morning to beat the heat and it’s been ok. It’s not too comfortable to walk after about 1pm. Go for it! (and don’t forget the sunscreen) 😊

    Husband wants to come with me!

    Well, we made it! Arrived last night in Porto, I caught a cold on the plane but had my first Nata just now. Yum! 😋 Will take train to Valença tomorrow and start walking the next morning. So happy to be back! 😄

    May you heal quickly. 💕

    Coping with change after Sarria - wisdom needed please

    A couple of things that helped me last year when I walked was every morning I would make a determination to practice patience and then when I came upon rowdy people or large groups I would first say Buen Camino and their excited reaction usually made me smile. I tried to feel their happiness and...

    How common are hiking shorts on men

    Recently there was a long discussion on whether men can wear skirts on the camino so yeah…shorts are ok. 😊

    Husband wants to come with me!

    He’s VERY laid back. Tibetans are quite relaxed and have a terrific sence of humour. He knows I’m talking about him and finds it amusing. Oh…forgot to tell him about the 82 year old comparison, he’ll get a kick out of that. Thanks for the reminder. 😄

    How to find a meal on a busy Sunday in Viana - are we doing it wrong?

    I ended up putting a reminder on my phone for Saturday nights so I will be sure to buy some extra food in case I got caught out again on a Sunday. 😊

    Husband wants to come with me!

    Thank-you everyone for all your wonderful advice, very kind. I discussed the options with husband and he would like to do the last 100km. I warned him that it will be hot and busy in July but he seems ok with that. I found an itinerary for someone’s 82 year old mother that might work for him. 😄...
