Hi, we will start walking to Finisterre tomorrow and then on to Muxia. Can anyone advise how busy it is and if we need to book more than a day in advance. Will be looking at private rooms in Alberque or pensions thanks
Wow, what a great thread and this is really giving me hope that we can get out of Perth in April 2022 to walk VdlP. Easter in Seville sounds wonderful So hoping that this will become a reality. always great to meet up with some Aussies.
Grazie, we have decided to leave a bag in the long term lockers near Milano station as we don’t know where we will be on our last night. We have a late night flight out .
Hi. We have a week of business in Northern Italy before we embark on a 2 week walk from Lucca to wherever in the time we have, and on completion of the walk will get the train to Milan to fly back to Australia. Because we have to take business clothes, we would like to post these back to...
I’m on the Frances now. Plenty of pilgrims about. Lots of albergues closed but there is always a bed in the bigger towns. 9 days of great weather but now it’s cold windy an a bit wet. We will be in Burgos Wednesday night and there are plenty of others as well. Buen Camino
We stayed in a private room there on 11th May and I also got bitten and I suspected it was Santa Clara but could not be certain. Reflecting on this a few days later, I recalled seeing a small blood spot on the sheets. The interesting thing was I slept in a double bed with my husband and only I...

I walked Leon to Santiago in September 2018 at age 65 on a whim and with 3 weeks notice. Loved it and in April 2019 I walked with my husband (69) from SJpDP to Santiago. We are totally hooked and plan to do Lausanne to Rome in 2020 but maybe another one before that. Cant stop walking :)
My husband and I are currently in Burgos. We took a full day in Pamplona and had to force ourselves to take another full day in Burgos. We wanted to keep walking but knew it was a good idea to take a rest day in this wonderful city. Feel so good for it. What I really want to share is the great...
Hi Mim, I walked Leon to Santiago solo last September and couldn’t wait to get back and do the Francés from SJPDP. I too loved the solo walk however I’m looking forward to walking with my husband this time. We are from Perth and will start our walk on 21st April fro SJPDP so may see you on the...
Hi Rory, September last year I decided to walk the Camino solo and within 3 weeks was walking. I loved getting my gear, researching and preparing well but not planning much. I didn’t have the courage to start in sjpdp so started in Leon and had a wonderful experience. Couldn’t wait to get back...
