    LIVE from the Camino Anyone know if the Camino is clear between Sarria and Portomarín?

    Hi All, I’m currently in Fonfría, 12km (by road) before Triacastela. We’re being advised to walk the road route due to the snow on the Camino and (after hiking through the drift to get to O Cebreiro) I’m following that advice. I see that the km difference between Sarria and Portomarín is 29km...

    Advice on working as a Hospitalera please...

    Hi, I've just returned from completing the Camino Frances (SJPP to SdC) and am very interested in going back in the Spring/Summer to work as a Hospitalera...for as long as possible. I understand that it is usual to spend no more than 2 weeks in this role at an individual albergue and would...

    Will I be warm enough?

    Hola amigo/as, Can you share your views please? I leave SJPP in a week & am just beginning to wonder if I'm going to be warm enough. To keep weight down I'm taking short & long-sleeved tech-tees, a micro fleece & a very thin waterproof jacket. My plan was to layer & generate body heat by...

    Need to get Pilgrim Passport stamp at SJPP before I start Camino?

    Transport to Bilbao from middle of Camino Frances

My concern is that I have a flight home...
