    Virtual Camino? Kind of...

    While I have never been to Portugal not even as a tourist I'm simply in love with fado and its performers even when the songs are a little bit more pop-ish. Don't know why really but they kind of bring me somewhere over there to Iberia. Missing Camino/Caminho oh so very much this song kind of...

    A History of Silence (by A.Corbin)

    Home Alone - New Generation (i.e.Self Isolation) ideas

    Where have you been 50 years ago?

    Peace sisters and brothers ;) Anyone on this forum that participated at Woodstock Festival exactly 50 years ago? What are your memories if you would be willing to share them? I know that's not directly related to Camino de Santiago but at that time it surely was your Camino :)

    What was you best moment (apart from walking)?

    Yes, what was your most memorable moment on any Camino but not related to walking (past something etc.)? For me it was booking two nights in a room in a bit larger town. And on first afternoon rain started. I rushed out and bought some takeaway food and few beers and ran back to my...

    Heads up for Toro and Zamora

    Monastery "Sancti Spiritus" in Toro stopped accommodating pilgrims. Nuns said that they are only six and too old to do it anymore. The group of four pilgrims we met in Castronuño stayed at Pension Zamora on the main pedestrian street. 35€ for double and 40€ for twin room. I guess that's the...

    On the road again (+Levante & Sanabres)

    Howdy there! It happened that I couldn't do it last year (medical & judicial issues - no, I wasn't arrested for my moniker :D otherwise I would ask @peregrina2000 to defend me) but something beautiful happened to me this year. Won't go into details. First the plan was to walk Via Augusta...

    Miscellanious: Funny historic fact about Almendralejo

    I apollogise if this thread isn't something that we should share on this forum and therefore ask the mods to remove it if it is so. But... Today I saw an article in Slovenian newspaper from 1927 (Narodni dnevnik, Feb 5th 1927) that the major of the town of Almendralejo...
