    230.000 pilgrims expected this year

    I do not doubt it one single bit. I went to 3 different places in Pedrouzo tonight before I found a bed. Just happy I'll be in Santiago tomorrow!

    Seeking advice for early risers-- don't hate us, we can't help it!

    You'll have plenty of company! Remember your ear plugs. Lots of pilgrims don't crawl in bed until 11pm as well. And they have to get ready for the next day too :) Buen camino!

    LIVE from the Camino Is finding accommodation on the Camino Frances, becoming too stressful?

    I leave late (most of the time) after everyone has left, stop around 2. Always in the first few to arrive. But yes, it's really crowded. But I'm past Sarria so here it's kind of expected. Today I'm the only one sleeping at a Pension that isn't part of a German Gay travel tour.

    LIVE from the Camino Albergue Ettiquette

    Currently I am in Triacastela. Very beautiful here! Walking the Camino is nothing short of amazing! BUT I think it's time to discuss a few things that could make so many lives easier. Sharing confined spaces is difficult for everyone but I think just a few things to keep in mind for common...

    Do I really have to suffer to be a 'real' pilgrim? - A Camino enthusiast's dilemma

    I'm in puente le raine right now, I wish that guy I shared a room with here this morning would've been a 'true' pilgrim. Ha! I know, I know, true pilgrims don't use wifi. :)

    Do I really have to suffer to be a 'real' pilgrim? - A Camino enthusiast's dilemma

    Haha I took a bus 3 km, may take one from Burgos to Leon too. Avoiding people who act like some kind of race and loud talkers. Stop and smell the roses. My vacation. I'm paying for it. It's whatever I want it to be. My Compostella will read the same as theirs.

    Class of 2014

    I leave one week from tomorrow. I'm nervous. Second guessing myself. What if my body gives out physically? What if I get food poisoning? Lost? Homesick? Is €350 enough to get my train tickets from Paris to SJPP and food and lodging for a week or two? On the other hand, what if I have the...

    Hotel close to train station in Bordeaux?

    Hello, thank you for allowing me to be a part of this forum! I have gained a wealth of knowledge from this forum. I am flying into Paris from the states March 24, 2014 and then taking a train to Bordeaux, where I imagine I will be pretty tired at that point. Does anyone know if there is an...
