    After Santiago?

    i actually walked back from Santiago to Porto, using central after going North on Da Costa, the only place that I had issues was in Tui, because there was a much bigger Albergue in Valença on the Portuguese side of the border, and they would get lots of late arrival from north bound pilgrims in...

    Not what I expected!

    i was surprised by people having expectations and preconceived ideas. I was going my way and didn't realised this was something people preplanned and made up what it was going to be based on other peoples experience

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Legitimate price rise or price gouging on the Camino?

    and i think you should. The money you charge should help you pay your costs. the pilgrim's heart should be thankful for you offering them a safe shelter.

    provided by time we can travel the Schengen zone has not changed. Are Bulgaria and Romania still going to be left out, when the EU needs to show unity to potentially survive

    Continental Crossing of Europe with a Camino Twist (Suggestions please!)

    though there is no long stay Visa for Schengen Zone, you can still get one for specific countries, and still spend 90 days out of 180 in rest of Schengen zone. So my plan for 2020 (now 2022) was to apply for a long stay Tourist Visa in France. The big issue with that is you really need to land...

    COVID New start dates?

    I think believing i will walk a camino towards Saint James again without the risk of being a walking incubator for the Virus one day qualifies as Hope and Positivity.

    Never again

    how did you find the Buen Camino app? In fairness i did the path in Reverse, but i found it totally useless, filled with wrong information as to food availability- There was nothing in Urdax after 3pm, and had path in wrong places in Forest between Elizondo and Lantz (and too many arrows made...

    Never again

    Interesting. Not sure the place was much different than many French chemin place i went through with low traffic where municipality-tax payers don't subsidize costs (or can't as is the case here, due to ongoing problem with the Gite Municipal). the offering in many places along Via Tolosana...

    Reverse From Pamplona to Bayonne?
