    My experience walking the camino Ingles in September

    Not really the small ones I remember from the Frances or Finisterre. Pontedeurme and Betanzos had a lot of character but they're bigger so it's a little diluted.

    My experience walking the camino Ingles in September

    I've just written about my recent experience on the camino Ingles in September. Would appreciate any feedback, I've tried to make the article entertaining but also hopefully of some use to others who plan to walk the route — or to reminisce. https://www.asecondlife.co.uk/blog/the-english-way...

    LIVE from the Camino Currently in Sigüeiro

    @domigee I'm walking the Ingles from Ferrol starting 4 September. I'm assuming it'll be similar in terms of the number of pilgrims walking at that time. Did you find any issues finding a bed for the night? I don't really want to have to book ahead or race for a bed but neither do I want to...

    Starting the Ingles on 18 Feb...

    So, I'm afraid to say I didn't go in the end, or rather I haven't yet gone. It was an odd decision as the flights were booked but I just couldn't bring myself to go. I hope to rectify this shortly as I'm in a better frame of mind now.

    Thanks. I definitely had a prison attitude to my first, I had to finish and I wasn't allowed to rest. I'm taking a different approach this time, to just try and enjoy the experience and live in the moment. If I want to rest I will and if I don't want to finish then that's fine too.

    Starting the Ingles on 18 Feb...

    I've just booked my flight to A Coruna for next Saturday, will be starting from Ferrol on Sunday if all goes to plan. This will be my second camino and I wanted something less daunting than the full Frances route which I did last January. I'm a little concerned as I still remember how...

    The story of my winter camino

    Thank you to everyone for your feedback and I'm very sorry if I've offended anyone with my language. I should have mentioned in the original post which I've done now.

    2016 Nov/Dec & 2017 Jan Peregrinos Departures

    Hi all, I've just booked my flight to Biaritz on 13 January so will be doing the CF route starting from SJpP on 14 or 15 January. I feel massively unprepared as I've decided to do this on a whim (although it's been on the back of my mind for a few years) but that makes it all the more exciting...
