    My Camino Primitivo - Sep-Oct 2014

    Now that I've started walking, am starting a new thread to keep a record of my trip. Am not putting it in the Live From forum on purpose - it will just get lost over there.

    Leaving from Oviedo in just under 2 weeks....

    ..... and, as for previous Caminos (the Frances and the VdlP), I have done no training whatsoever! I am very much a spur-of-the-moment person and not one to prepare for months and months for these things. Posting here today not because I have a specific question at this point (still busy...

    Re: CAMINO DEl NORTE (3200 km, 6 months walking)

    Even for those who don't understand French, it's worth looking at Jean-François' website just to have a look at the wonderful images. I can tell a lot of time and effort has gone into the site (photos, maps, scans, diagrams, etc). An amazing trip along the French and Spanish coasts. Am...

    LIVE from the Camino Live from the Via de la Plata

    ... well, not quite live from the VdlP, but live from Seville in any case. Arrived this afternoon and the weather is muggy sticky hot - it´s been drizzling a bit this evening and it helps to cope with the heat but not much. I checked into the Hotel Simon, then walked 15-20 mins to the Amigos...

    Photographic Exhibition Poster showing Pilgrim on top of ste

    When I walked the Camino Frances last October, I saw in many albergues the poster for an exhibition of photographs realated to the pilgrimage - it showed a pilgrim (a man) carrying a huge pack and wearing a rain poncho reaching the top of the steps in Portomarin (or at least I think it was...

    Via de la Plata - October (and November!) 09

    I walked the Camino Frances last October/November and when I was not looking, I caught the Camino bug :wink: . The Camino has been in my thoughts for most of this past year. Around 28 September (in 9-10 days), I am off to Spain again, this time to walk the Via de la Plata. I am posting this...

    LIVE from the Camino Live from Fisterra - My first Camino is now officially over!

    After setting off from St Jean de Pied de Port on 3rd October (seems like a lifetime ago!), with the intention of being back home in England by 1 November (ha ha!!), here I sit in the Mariquito (Cafeteria! Pub! Habitaciones!) in Fisterra nearly 7 weeks later, feeling extremely satistied, if a...

    Wanderlust (UK Magazine) mentions Santiago-Finisterre leg

    Just thought I'd mention in passing that In this month's (October 2008 issue) Wanderlust (UK magazine) I found an article describing the walk from Santiago to Finisterre. It is mentioned that this is a nice "taster" to the Camino and easily done over a long weekend. Done in 3 days (day one...

    Shops in St Jean

    I've just bought my rucksack for the trip - I have settled for the Osprey Aura 35, and it is my intention to take it with me on the plane as hand luggage (if I don't pack it too full, it just about fits Ryanair's size requirements) rather than checking it in. Is there anywhere in St Jean Pied...

    Communicating with Other Pilgrims

    I hope this is not too silly a question but it's been bugging me a little. Am about to set off for my first Camino (1 October) and although I am a bit a of loner, I am looking forward to meeting all the other pilgrims/nationalities on my route. Those of you who have walked the Camino before...
