Day 13. Medina de Rioseco-Cuenca de Campos(22.9km) We had a very pleasant walk by the side of the canal for almost the whole 10 kms to Tamariz. We stopped to ask some locals about a "friendly bar", as it was described in my guide, and were informed that the bar opens at 13:00...but once we sat...

Day 12. Peñaflor de Hornija -Medina de Rioseco (24.1km) There was a beautiful bit of fog hanging over the field as we descended from the town that morning. Shortly after that we encountered a shepherd with sheep and a donkey☺️, and the donkey has followed us on the path for a little bit as we...

Day 11. Puente Duero-Peñaflor de Hornija (28.1km) This was a very nice stage, if only s little hot! I like it when you can stop and visit many little towns on the way and thus stage had a town about every 7 km. I was really looking forward to visiting a church of Santa Maria in Wamba and I was...

Wow, it's been 3 days and I haven't written anything...I was keeping busy enjoying my Camino ☺️ I guess. Good weather (13 days of sun, fingers crossed that it will continue this way), good food/wine and I even got to dance a bit of Spanish posadoble. I will try to give a brief summary of the...

Day 8 & 9. Nava de la Asucíon-Coca(10km)-Alcazarén(24.6km) On the first stage from Nava we walked only 9 km to Coca. Thus was partly because my fellow pilgrims wanted to meet their friend who missed the last 2 days due to an injury ahd I was also happy to test my legs. We had a late start...

And also, it looked like everyone in Añe took a sobriety vows, as no one had any wine when we asked if we could perhaps buy some wine from them...Urelia, you might have found the very last drinking person in Añe

Well, I might be mistaken, but they said that on weekends you can buy food somewhere in Añe...perhaps more like a market, I'm not sure

Day 6&7. Segovia-Añe(21km)-Nava de la Asunción(24km) I took it easy with smaller stages for the last 2 days walking with another 2 fellow pilgrims. We had beautiful views of Alcazar while exiting the city and then it was fields, fields and yet more fields to come...Even though it is the end of...

Thank you so much for the advise KinkyOne!

Day 4&5. Cercedilla-La Granja de San Ildefonso (26.8km)-Segovila(12.8km) I have been told that this might be the toughest stage of CdM, because of elevation and distance, so I decided to split it and spend more time in Segovia. It was a perfect day for walking from Cercedilla, Plenty of shade...

Haha, this is great. Pity I didn't get there, as I might have joined the ladies. I have been trying to do my own version of yoga/Pilates stretches to aid my sore muscles

Day 3. Manzanares el Real To Cercedilla (19km) I have started to enjoy walking on my own by now☺️. Even though it being a Sunday there were lots of cyclists speeding past me, it was still very peaceful. This is an easy flat stage of the Camino with plenty of opportunities to stop for a...

Yes, I know, their website is great! And they also taught me how to use Wililoc, so I was able to follow their trail to get to La Granja de San Ildefonso! And I know exactly how many kms I walked, it's great

Day 2. Tres Cantos to Manzenares el Real ( I have started the day with vacating my "deluxe" lodgings at the Tres Cantos at 6am on Saturday morning and I was surprised to find a cafe open right next to the train station-bonus! At 7am, with still one hour left before sunrise, I have attempted to...

Yes! I might just get used to this luxury! And I'm starting to enjoy walking alone too☺️

Thank you Bradypus, I feel much less anxious now after sharing this

Hi everyone, my name is Anastasia and this Camino (starting from Madrid and heading towards Santiago and maybe a bit further if I can make it) is a part of my first ever solo travel experience. I am a little unprepared and was feeling really anxious about starting the Camino for about 2 weeks...
