Thank you! I think I will go with that plan, especially as I am feeling tiered after finishing my exams. The extra day to rest up should really help.
Do you have any experience with the buses there? I can get a direct 3 euro bus from León to Hospital online, but do you think it would be...
Hello!
I have been posting a lot, and this should be my last post as I leave for León tomorrow! My last final exam was yesterday, so planning this camino while in school has been an adventure.
My last anxiety: Should I start hiking on the first day, or should I go to sleep early and start on...
I am starting in León, and I would take the poles back if they were collapsible! I am just worried about fitting them into my suitcase as a fly back to the us :)
Hello again
I will be hiking form Leon to O’Cebriero from the 11th-17 this month (that is really soon ack!) and I have a few last minute questions:

Would you recommend Leon to O’Cebriero or...
Hello all!
I am a college student from the US currently studying abroad in Madrid, and I know that hiking the 100km is what my heart calls for.
