My husband and I will walk the via la plata starting in about 2 weeks. I know there are not places to stop for food and supplies between albergue. My question is, do albergue on the Via La Plata offer dinner and breakfasts? Or do I need to carry several days of food between towns? Thank you...
I walked the Camino from Pamplona to Santiago in 2016! Advice?
Don’t be in a hurry.
If you meet someon you like, get their contact info sooner than later. I lost track of a couple of people I wanted to stay in touch with.
Drink some delicious Spanish wine! 😄
Walk alone sometimes. The...
I really like my black diamond walking poles. Very light. They were expensive. The last time I walked the Camino, I bought some cheap walking poles. They were very heavy. I check my backpack. It got to Madrid ok.
Congratulations for having a great day! After all you've Been through I guess you appreciate every moment now.
When are you planning to walk the Camino again? Wishing you the best with the hope of a Camino soon on the horizon.

I sent my pack forward too. I wore my hiking boots and carried a pair of Chacos to change into after walking about 10k. My feet started to ache in the boots. I wore Chacos with socks too. I just ties the boot laces and threw them over my shoulder. (In hindsight, I think I needed an arch...
When I’m not dreaming about the Camino, reading about the Camino, or planning my next Camino, I make pottery, clean up at the clay studio,walk, cook, and hang out with my hubby.
I’m a camino addict. I started making the Camino mugs as I was recovering from knee surgery. I feel a strong...
I have an overactive bladder. I would find a bush or something to squat behind. Once there were a few people around. So, I walked quickly ahead and slipped a couple of feet off the Way to relieve myself. As I was adjusting my clothes, I was met with a couple of grins. I also wore a macabi...
