    Camino Norte

    I agree with not bypassing Gijon. I skipped it 2019 but when I finished my camino I rode the bus back there and spent two days there. I loved it! So glad I did that. I enjoyed the seafront, the shopping area, museums and ease of getting around on foot. Cool historical site there also.

    Pilgrim stabbed and attacked at knife point after Sacavem, was able to escape

    I have heard that Portugal is not a safe as Spain. I spent 5 days there after my Camino del Norte ended and could certainly feel a more macho sexist attitude there toward women. Your experience has convinced me to have a fellow pilgrim with me while walking at all times, especially if I walk...

    What was you best moment (apart from walking)?

    The night I stayed at the albergue in Luarca. Two other pilgrims and I stayed out late not knowing the albergue locked the doors at 10pm. Our only option was to enter through an open window in the bunk room full of sleeping pilgrims. It was totally inappropriate but we had no choice. Needless...

    Is it safe for a woman walking alone?

    I walked the del Norte May 8th 2019 - June 13, 2019. I walked all but 7 or 8 days solo and always felt safe other than this one incident. I left Ribadeo and was entering a small farming town. On the edge of town at the first house I came to as I was lost in thought I suddenly realized a man was...

    How did the camino provide for you?

    As I was walking out of Irun yesterday I saw a vegetable stand with some oranges and I thought oh I want an orange very badly but I don’t want to stop & take the time to buy one. So I continued walking. After I have been out of town for maybe an hour I looked down and I saw an orange sitting...

    Chaco sandals pros and cons? (plantar fasciitis dramas)

    I love my Chacos but decided against taking them due to weight. I chose these instead...they have good arch support and support. I will use them for the end of the day and for showering. A little pricey but are well made and I expect them to hold up well. I tried them out this weekend in...
