    Starting Spuritual Variant on the 24th or 25th from Pontevedra?

    Will anyone be leaving Pontevedra on the 25th and be able to walk the Variant with me. I need someone who wouldn't be impatient with my slow pace due to this illness.

    Pontevedra on May 25th?

    Will anyone be around Pontevedra on the 25th and be able to finish the walk to Santiago with me and wouldn't be impatient with waking slowly?

    Hospital in Tui open on weekend?

    I am stuck in Valenca all by myself with what I think is a really bad case of bronchitis. Possibly walking pneumonia. The woman who ran my albergue in Rubiaes brought me to Valenca and told me there are lots of doctors and hospitals in Tui. I have contacted my travel insurance via email and...

    Thin warm Gloves in Porto?

    I am on my way to Porto today and the weather here in in Portugal is way too cold for my problematic fingers. I brought windproof gloves and have been layering them with my fingerless gloves, but that isn't enough. Is there an outdoors store that would probably sell wool or other good...

    Vaseline and Omnifix easily found?

    Getting Really Nervous

    There seem to be a lot of these threads, but I too am a solo female starting in May. I generally felt okay until a couple of weeks ago when a man tried to attack me. I'd really like to find someone to start walking with. I plan to start from Porto May 13th.

    Need help with bus tickets

    I was going through Rome 2 Rio to plan how to get from the Lisbon airport to Fatima on May 8th and then to Fatima to Porto on May 11th. The bus routes seem like the way to go but even though the Ouibus leaves hourly from Lisbon to Fatima and the Rede Expressos leaves every 30 minutes there...

    Getting Back to Lisbon

    I have seen many recommendations to take the bus back to Lisbon from Santiago. I was wondering if anyone has taken the train to A Coruna and then flown to Lisbon. I recently saw very cheap flights from A Coruna to Lisbon. I get motion sickness pretty badly on buses, but not so much in trains...
