Hi Pilgrim!
The Valcarlos route gave me the perfect alternative for the first hiking days. I really wanted to take it easy to start walking and I was very happy with that choice. 13km on the first day and uphill, & the next day I was glad not to have to sleep in the huge albergue of...
There is plenty of accommodation, you shouldn't worry. I stopped in Montbonnet the first night. There are 3 gites there.
I suggest you get the 'miam miam-dodo' guide in the cathedral and book a few days ahead as you walk. Don't worry.
Bon chemin!
Thank you SO MUCH for your list & updates Caminka, what a work you've done! It's exactly what I was looking for.
So excited... I'm leaving next week to le Puy, I'll try without the Miam-Miam guide now. ;-)
Buen Camino/Bon Chemin

I'm so sorry for your loss.
I stayed my very first night in the municipal too. It was pretty recently built, very clean, basic and I found it very fine. You should ask for the key in the local pub.
The good part of walking this route for me was that there are only a few people, as most...
Hi Stephen
Yes I know this too. My trick was to ask names twice and then I really could remember them better. Asking it the second time I just explained myself that I need to ask it twice to be able to remember and then You get a big smile back ;-)
Buen Camino
Thank you! I took this route.
The route was beautiful and I walked completely alone the first day.
We were just 4 in the Albergue.........

I searched again for out little conversation to thank you again. You really helped me to start, to trust, to let go ;-)
My Camino went sooooo smooth and all this stressed posts were so unhelpful, the hardest part...
Dear all,
I really need some advise....
I am leaving tomorrow for the South of France, starting to walk this Friday. I am recovering from a burn-out, so I have some nervous issues and also know that on good days I will be able to walk a lot on the bad ones no....
So, I planned to start...

well yes! thank you for this reply. This is my first lesson learned, even before leaving: let go of fear & too much control.... ;-) One reason why I am going is to get out of my comfort zone, so, hello Camino!
And the good news is: I could cancel my first night , got my train ticket refunded...
Hi murphy-fans,
thanks for your stories. I considered well going to my starting point by train, to be really cool and relaxed for the journey to start the long walk. And now this train strike is announced just for when I was gonna leave. I also made a reservation for my first 2 nights to be...
