    I have lost myself

    I finished the Camino Frances in October 2021. It was a calling I had to fulfill, ever since I dipped my toe in the Camino in 2018 (where I started in Sarria and made a fool of myself). This time, I completed... the best thing I have ever done. Now I am home. This is where everyone says the...

    Question about bringing medicinals to Spain

    Good morning, everyone. To the point, I have glaucoma. I have managed it well for over three years now with latanaprost drops. However, these drops have to be refrigerated, which is not easy on the Camino. When I walked the Camino in 2018, it was only from Sarria to SDC, and it was late...

    I want to go back!

    Three months ago, I posted from the Camino. I was suffering. I was in pain. I had thrown out my back and gotten sick from some parasite in the water at one of the villages.

    Friends of Bill W.

    I am in recovery and have been sober for 24 years. I'm not too concerned about the urge to take a drink while on the Camino, but I was wondering if there were any people here experienced with the Camino who were also in the Program. Are there meeting options at albergues or in villages?

    Question of charging batteries in albergues

    I will be walking Sarria to Santiago and on to Finisterre-Muxia at the end of October. My first time on the Camino. I have a question about the albergues. I will want to charge my phone/camera every day because it has a mediocre battery. I have a charge battery for emergencies, but it will need...

    How do I get to Sarria?

    My first time on the Camino, I wanted to start small. I'm walking from Sarria to Santiago, then on to Finisterre. I find the best schedule for me is to fly into Madrid at the start, flying out of Santiago de Compostela at the end. My questions to the group are: How do I get from Madrid to...
