    Has anyone travelled Volotea from A Coruńa airport?

    I need to return to Bristol after my camino. Ryanair fly from Santiago but only to Stansted which results in an awful journey to the south west. I see there is an alternative from A Coruńa to Bilbao with Volotea airline, and then from Bilbao to Bristol with easyJet. I’ve not heard of Volotea...

    Warning for solo female pilgrims to be aware on Mozárabe

    I couldn't resist...no-drone video round-up

    I was so moved and inspired by the video featured in a recent thread that I felt compelled to make one in the same format. Nowhere near as professional as the video made by SummitXtreme, and with no drone footage, but I think it gives a real feel for all the wonderful sights and experiences...

    New video and daily blog posts along the caminos de Madrid, Salvador, Primitivo & Fisterra

    Not exactly live, although posted live to my blog each day along these four camino routes. Just didn't have the time or the energy to post to the forum at the same time. On the Madrid and San Salvador there were very few other pilgrims although things got busy on the Primitivo and Fisterra. I...

    Any recent information on the Camino Torres?

    I'm thinking about walking the Torres next year, can anyone provide shortcuts to info so save me reinventing the wheel? Is there any albergue infrastructure on this route, or is it likely to be rather expensive?

    How busy is the Camino Fisterra?

    Having spent a few totally wonderfully solitary days walking the Ruta do Mar (with a few side trips) I will soon be rejoining Camino society on the Camino Ingles.
