Buying Rail Tickets on RENFE
The RENFE site is poorly programmed for foreign purchases. It makes fields that are Spanish-centric (eg Province & Postal Code) mandatory.

Dangerous exit for pilgrims on the way to Leon
It's open alright. I walked it just last month. That area also had one of my "Did I really just see that?" funny moments of El Camino. At least it was funny to a Hedge Fund guy like myself!

How About Work?
I had a case of "Be careful what you pray for" & the angelic realm has some sense of humor... I felt called to do the Camino "when my job ended" (My contract ran through Aug 2014).

New peregrino starting Saint Frances on Dec 26
Hi all, I am Eric from Chicago but currently residing in Bermuda. Very long story short but I planned my Camino for when my job in Bermuda ended (Aug/Sep 2014). I recently trekked the Inka Trail to Machu Picchu (Nov 2012) & returned to Bermuda to find my job had unexpectedly ended. I was given a...- ericandbeethoven
