Hi all - I don't know where else to post this, but this looks like as good as any forum to do so -
So, now that I have my EU passport, I'm curious to know whether there are any 'perks' (other than not worrying about the ninety day limit for staying in the EU and avoiding the non-EU line(s) at...
Hi folks - if anyone has done some or all of this Grande Randonee, I’d love to hear about your experiences. Is the trail marked continuously the whole way? How is the gite/auberge/lodging situation. Etc., etc.?
Best time and section to stroll in late September or early October? I’m looking at...

One more question - what would be the best international airport to fly to, to get to Sevilla? Lisbon or Madrid or ... ?

How...
The best thing about walking any camino - ours or a different one - is that it teaches you that no matter how far away the end line is, it can be reached, as long as you have the right frame of mind. And of course, once you are aware of that, it is the act of keeping on walking, and not getting...
