    LIVE from the Camino Via Geneva and Le Puy en Velay

    We stayed at Gîte Sorbier in 2018, there was a very friendly pub just across the road and a wonderful restaurant that serves that delicious cheesy potato dish that is a speciality of the region - it’s spectacular!!

    L'Auberge du pèlerin at SJPP

    We are coincidentally spending a night there tonight. It is spic and span as a new pin, and the new owners are very hospitable and friendly. Our only complaint was the increased cost , we paid €65 for a spartan room, and lukewarm showers. It is the most we have paid for a twin room on any Camino...

    Macabi skirt - which colour

    Thanks Domigee! I really liked those skirts, particularly the purple. I get what you say about being short though, and protecting those ‘pegs’, but being a bit vertically challenged myself perhaps they may be ok on me... The Rip stop group had one long ( mid calf) length skirt which I thought...

    Macabi skirt - which colour

    I really like these skirts. I have a lovely one in the original style in red which I wear often in the summer down the beach. I wore the slim in a knee length in my Portuguese camino and found for my stride, it was just a teensy bit narrow- fine for normal wear but irritating when around 3 hours...

    Shin splints

    I thought so! Thanks for clearing that up in my mind :-)

    Holy Hell! Shin splints?

    Yes! I agree- I had a knee brace that I used as a pressure bandage, and mysteriously it did offer much appreciated comfort.

    Shin splints

    I have just returned from the Le Puy Route and had shin splints and did take a small break of 2 days, using Claudine’s fabulous service to keep up with my partner. I also used her service to transport my pack for a day or so after that- relieving myself of my pack really helped! I found the...

    "I'm a leavin' on a jet plane"...tomorrow!

    We have been back now a month from our Le Puy Camino adventure, we are pining for a return and are just as green as envious green! It was just so amazing, all we can say is it will definitely be a Bon Chemin, no matter what!!

    Why should you Over-Night before SJPdP

    I read all these entries with intense interest as my hubbyJim and I plan for our Camino Frances next March/April. It’s all so individual and dependent on the trail as to how we have pulled up from long haul flights. Having looked at the SJPP-Roncevaux hike- I am opting for the Paris one nighter...

    Le Puy, here we come!

    Hi there! We are in the route and currently on our way to Espalion today. Keep hold of your MMDD 2016 edition. It is now split into 2 editions now but at the Tourist centre in Nasbinals, the woman there said that the old edition was better. There’s also the Michelin guide which we bought in e...

    Le Puy, here we come!

    I know how exciting that ‘sent’ bit is. My husband and I will be landing in Le Puy after our morning train from Lyon on the 23rd March - a tad early , but the best we could manage. The anticipation of preparing for this is so motivating. After walking From Lisbon last year in very different...
