    "The Way, My Way" in Sydney

    So, I've just found about this event and thought it would be good to share here. The movie has been mentioned in previous posts, like this one. Unfortunately, I cant be in Sydney on that Thursday, but maybe others can! At Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace, in Cremorne...

    Camino from A Coruña, starting "somewhere else" - have you done it?

    A few years ago, local pilgrims organisation and parishes created a "Brazilian Camino" in the island of Florianopolis, south of Brazil. According to them, walking the 20-odd kms over there allows you to continue the path from A Coruña. Last week, there was a recognition ceremony by the local...

    Socks colours - not a serious thread

    I usually go on camino with pairs of socks that match the colours of the t-shirts I wear. Usually pink, blue and yellow, to make selection easier each day (I just alternate between the colour sets). But I was in need of new socks and saw some 'white' ones on special at Decathlon. Or so I...

    Camino Salvado - Western Australia. Have you walked it?

    Hi all Looking for some information about this Australian route, beyond what is on the official websites, as it may be a future camino option.

    1 or 2 day religious walks in Australia?

    Hi all Are you aware of any short trails around Australia that lead to a religious destination? There are obviously the Aussie Camino (VIC-SA) and the Camino Salvado (WA) trails, but they are about 10 days each. Are you aware of anything that could be done over 1 or 2 days? Accepting...

    How many of you saw the announcement of "El Camino" on Netflix and got super-excited, just to find out it was a Breaking Bad movie? :(

    Camino Yellow Arrow Pin and shipping to Australia

    A few weeks ago, my much loved camino pin fell from my backpack in the middle of a busy traffic crossing and I lost it. After 4 years attached to the bag I use everyday for work, I am realy missing the little thing. The pin was just an yellow arrow, and I would love to buy a replacement...

    Suggestion of stages in the Salvador?

    Hi all I am starting to look at this camino for someday in the future and would love to hear from people that already walked it which stages (and distances) they did. I already read the Gronze stages, but my impression is that 5 days would be a bit too much for me and my husband, but what...

    Our stages - Camino Lebaniego (April 2019)

    Hi all Finally I found some time to write after all the craziness of the last weeks. We just finished the Camino Lebaniego and got back home after the most intense 15 days or our lives (due to camino and non-camino reasons). Many of you followed my husband situation and recovery here in the...

    LIVE from the Camino Free visit to Palace in Comillas

    For pilgrims approaching Comillas: if you have at least 2 stamps in your credential, for the next weeks the entry to the Palace of the Marques de Comillas and its chapel is free! The guided visit (in Castellano) lasts 25 minutes and is really pretty. The chapel is another 20 minutes and shows...

    Aussie camino

    Has anyone done the Aussie Camino from Portland (VIC) to Penola (SA), in Australia? Self-guided or tour? What are your thoughts on it? How much history/pretty landscapes did you see?

    A camino cancelled? Seizures? (Please, send good energy)

    Hi all After 2 years in the making, lots os posts and an anxious countdown, looks like my Camino Lebaniego will be cancelled. We we supposed to leave on Easter Friday, but yesterday was probably the scariest day of my life. I got home and found my husband semi concious, trembling and all dirty...

    Has anyone flown with Qatar Airways out of Aus?

    So, 3 weeks for my camino lebaniego and the excitement is bubbling! Our tickets go from Canberra all the way to Santander, via Doha with Qatar Airways. They started flying from Canberra less than a year ago and I have no idea of what to expect. Has anyone travelled with them before? How does it...

    Should I add "mountaineering" to my travel insurance?

    Hi everyone! One month to my Lebaniego and I am very excited! I always purchase travel insurance before I go anywhere. In previous caminos, the normal coverage was fine. For this trip in particular, considering the terrain of the Lebaniego, should I add the "mountaineering" extra to my insurance?

    Help! The walking pole makes me feel like the walking dead!

    Backgroud: Up to this day, two caminos and many other travelling around the world without walking poles. Simply put, I hate them: feel uncoordinated, tired, dislike the noise even with rubber tips - hate them so much that i'm concious of being biased against them. Situation: we are going on the...

    Suggestion of Restaurants/Camino-y places/unmissable things in Santander?

    Hi all All going well, I'll have 1 and a half day in Santander after I finish my Camino Lebaniego this year. Any suggestions of unmissable things to do there? I will stop by the cathedral to get credentials before my walk, and plan to visit the Peninsula de Magdalena on my return. I'd...

    How to lock a top loader?

    Hi there! My previous backpacks were panel loaders and had double zipers. I could use a mini-lock to keep some valuables inside. My current one is a top loader (Decathlon MH100 30L: https://www.decathlon.com.au/p/8493730_mh100-30l-hiking-backpack-black.html#/7844-132-30l) and I could not figure...

    So excited you could not sleep? Any Camino-inspired relaxation tips?

    After two years of my last Camino, finally I'm going again, YAAAYYY! :) Due to reasons, I could only take one week off work in April, over Easter. I looked at the calendar and thought: can I fit a Camino in 10 days? Flying from Australia, of all places? So it happens I can, and on Easter I land...
