    Baby on Primitivo

    Hey folks! I had hoped to do my 3rd Camino in 2020...and then in 2021...BUT since I'm not yet vaccinated I'm going to wait until 2022. However, I'll have a baby by then. They will be around 8 months old when I plan to walk. I know the Primitivo is hilly but is it stroller friendly (assuming I...

    Plans for 2021?

    My Primitivo for 2020 was canceled so I'm *hoping* I can make it this year but that's not looking great the way things are going. But I'm hopeful!

    Primitivo with a dog?

    Hey folks! I'll be doing the Primitivo this year (in 10 stages; my 3rd Camino) and am wondering if anyone has any info or tips for doing it with a dog. Of course, I can leave the dog at home but I thought I would see if it would be a feasible option. I don't mind camping if that's what it...

    Santiago Cathedral: Construction

    Does anyone know when the repairs are scheduled to end on the cathedral? My past two Caminos have showcased the wonderful scaffolding, but I thought maybe it would be nice to get to see the actual bell towers on my next Camino :)

    Naming your walking stick

    On the first day of my CF I found a walking stick that took my all the way to Finisterre. I had to name him, since he was pretty much my new bff. For whatever reason, I went with Jefferson Smalls. I found an almost identical one on my CP tis year, this time accompanying me to Finisterre and...

    I tried in every municipal albergue along that I stayed in along the CP and it never worked... :/

    My Camino Portugues Itinerary: Your Thoughts?

    I considering "rushing" a state of mind, not of body. I like to walk fast, to test my physical limits as well as my spiritual ones. To each their own, of course! :) I ended up walking the CP in 8 days, which worked well for me. I had planned for 9, but I would rather walk than rest! I then...

    Wifi in all public albergues in Galicia (from July 2015)

    Do you need a Spanish phone for this? I've had no luck using my Swedish phone to register... :/

    Starting at French border instead of SJPP?

    That's what I did, and it worked out perfectly :)

    Starting at French border instead of SJPP?

    For what it's worth, that walk from SJPP (while exhausting) was the MOST beautiful part of the entire Camino, in my opinion. The hike up to O Cebreiro was almost as beautiful, but that first day...truly mesmerizing <3 (If, of course, you have decent weather!)

    Just back....lessons learned

    Saw dozens of dogs on the Camino, and all were quite friendly. Never once was even slightly concerned. Maybe they could sense I was a vegan :p

    Best Non-Santiago Hikes/Pilgrimages?

    Has anyone done the Kungsleden? I'm planning to do 10 days of it this August and would love to chat with someone who has done it :)

    My Camino Portugues Itinerary: Your Thoughts?

    I am a generally fast walker and I had initially planned for 10 days, as per usual....BUT if I can swing it in 9 I'll have time to walk to Muxia or Finisterre so I was just wondering what people thought. I'll likely do the 9 day trip, and change my projection once I arrive and test the waters :)

    My Camino Portugues Itinerary: Your Thoughts?

    Hey folks, Sooooo I am looking to cut 1-2 days out of the CP "standard" Porto-Santiago 10 day trek. Below are my 9 and 8 day outlines, including kilometers. I would love to hear feedback from folks on whether they think its good, what I am missing out on, albergue suggestions, etc. Should I...
