Hola, amigos. I'm looking for help in finding a Spanish Immersion class in Spain, close to the Camino or possibly near the ocean. I've read some older posts, so hope to have some updated information and recommendations. I would like to take a conversation class in August/September 2018, for...
Hello Pilgrims, I’m sharing my “Walking Through the Ages” blog post “Training for a Camino ...” about the walking trails and hostels on the spectacular Northern California coast. I know it’s a long way from Santiago, but if you live in California or nearby or come to visit, you won’t want to...
Happy New Year, dear friends. I'm sharing my latest blog, Walking Through the Ages, "Let's Hike and Preserve California's Coastal Trails," with a trip to the Northern California Coast. The California Coastal Trail runs along our breathtaking coast and is a great place to train for your Camino...
Greetings, friends, Here's my blog, Walking Through the Ages and the many stories pilgrims from this forum shared to answer my question. Thank you all for taking the time to reply with your unique experiences. I had so many that I have printed excerpts of the longer responses and linked them to...

Dear Friends, I will be on a plane in six days, Northern California to Madrid, for three weeks on the Camino. Filling in the Smart Traveler app has made me think twice about my solo Camino. I couldn't finish the application because I had no emergency contact in Spain. The Camino has provided...
Quick questions, Camino friends and Johnnie Walker.
1. I purchased the Kindle version of the latest "A Pilgrim Guide to The Camino Ingles" which is so helpful. I would like a paper copy of some of the pages, but the Kindle app won't let me print any pages. Is it possible? I would be happy to...
Hola, Friends. I feel like I'm in a strange situation and would be grateful for suggestions on my next step. I just received a Facebook Message from a man in Spain who found my American driver's license that I lost last August or September, 2016. At the end of my Camino, in Santiago, my...
Hello, fellow travelers. I am setting up a simple travel blog, TravelPod, that supposedly enables me to post from my phone, my only camera. I would like to post a few Camino maps and wonder if there are sites that allow me to use their maps without copyright questions. My mini-blog, "Irenie's...
Hi, friends. I would appreciate any advice or your experiences. Using the "Favorite Albergues" download, I booked Beilari in SJPdP for August 16. I emailed Orrison, but haven't heard yet. That leaves Roncesvalles for August 18. I received a response in Spanish that I translated from The Real...
Hola amigos. I’m Irene and this is my first post. I have lots of questions. Please tell me if I should repost them separately in different forums. A friend and I will be celebrating our 70th birthdays by hiking on the Camino. I am planning this walk as a coming of age journey and pilgrimage...
