    Forum and digest question

    My email was hacked several months ago. I apologize if it created problems on the forum. Ive since changed email adresses and I'm not sure how to continue to receive the daily digest in my new email. It's probably very simple. And, I walk. Not a whole lot of time monkeying around on computers...

    Searching for a pilgrim I met in October 2014...

    Somewhere near Casanova just past Palas de Rei You: American guy recently retired from research somewhere in Berkeley, CA. Me: American gal walking with a ukulele. We met on a rainy night around the 12th of October. It was pouring outside.... The only food was desert in a local bar. We talked...

    A journey of 10,000 miles begins with a single step.

    Today was my last day of work and I'm heading out tomorrow. The journey begins. With a little luck I will make it the front door. All the planning, packing, repacking, jettisoning, reclaiming... Oy! Enough already. As a wise man once said, "Throw some crap in a bag and go!" I'll be in Paris on...

    Maps!!!

    I'm about 28 days away and I'm looking at online guides. I find so much information that it's giving me brain damage. I'm not overly concerned with stages and albergues for the moment. I'll be winging that part when I get there. I'm prepared to sleep out and carry some food. I'm just wondering...

    Paris in August?

    Just wondering if there are any other pilgrims out there that may be arriving or already be in Paris on or near the 13th of August. Would love to connect for moral support. I am a fairly experienced traveller. However, I find arriving in big cities after an overnight flight can be a bit...

    From Paris by Bicycle

    I fly into Paris with my bicycle. I'm looking for a route that will take me at least to Bordeaux. I know there is a Pilgrim's route or at least I think there is. Anybody know this route?

    Where should I go?

    I arrive in Paris on the 11th of August. I need to be in Granon on the 1st of September. I don't have time to walk all the way (though I'd like to some day). Any suggestions on a week or 10 days of walking to somewhere near Granon? I've already covered from San Jean to Santiago on the French...

    I need some photos

    Hello fellow Pilgrims. I need some photos. If anyone is currently walking the Frances from San Jean, you might notice some areas that are strewn with trash. Sounds like an odd request but I wonder if some of you might take some photos and send them to me. I'm working on a project and they would...

    Meeting up in Paris late August anyone?

    I did it, I booked a ticket to Paris for August 11. Well, I arrive on the 12th. Any pilgrims want to meet up, share accommodation, get coffee, be jet lagged, overwhelmed together, take in some sights any of that good stuff?

    Prescriptions from American M.D.s filled on route in Spain

    Has anyone ever had a prescription from an American MD filled at a Spanish Farmacia? I actually did have one filled in Logrono or Burgos (I forget exactly) but when I mentioned it to a veteran pilgrim of many trips to Spain, they seemed to think it was a fluke. Anybody have any experiences with...

    Camping on the VDLP

    I have read many if not all the threads on camping on the The Camino. Most of the detail is about the French Route in the north. But I apologize if this is a repeat topic. I cycled/walked the French Route in the fall of last year and camped part of the time. I would like to walk the VDLP in...

I will be cycling from Chartres to SJPP more or less following the via tourensis. At least I hope to follow something close to this. I have not yet decided if I will cycle...

    The Tours Route

    I am considering pedaling this route. Has anyone done this route in a while? I have read different things about it. Also I had come across a set of guidebooks online written in French for this route but I can't seem to find them again. Anybody have any info on this route or these guide books...
