    Favorite variant of Camino Portugues?

    Hello everyone, I just finished my first Camino last week (the Primitivo), and a pilgrim I met along the way recommended the Portuguese (from Porto) for my next one, since I can't get a lot of time off work at once. He specifically recommended the Coastal, since it can be done in a relatively...

    Ferretería Casas Chico hours?

    Does anyone happen to know what hours Ferretería Casas Chico is open? I wandered by this evening (after 1730) but didn't spot any hours on their door. Hoping to stop in while I'm still in SdC and see/possibly buy some of their brass work that I had read about previously.

    Private rooms in Madrid?

    Does anyone have any recommendations for places to stay in Madrid where one might get a private room that won't break the bank? My mother and I are finishing our Primitivo in a couple of days, and I'm realizing that the enforced closeness with another person in a double room for two weeks is...

    Lost & Found Found: women's sweater on the hospitales

    I found a dark gray (or faded black?) sweater on the Hospitales route yesterday.

    Thoughts on these hotels?

I am a miserably light sleeper (if there's one thing being in the army has taught me, its that shared accommodations are NOT for me), so I'm planning to reserve private rooms along the way. My planned stages are below...

    Favorite shirts?

    Cancelled twice thanks to COVID, but it looks like I will *finally* get to do the Primitivo this fall. Although I had all my gear ready to go back in 2020, I now have to buy some new stuff thanks to wear and tear, a new dog who for some unholy reason likes to chew on wool clothing, and putting...

    What month would you choose?

    So, I just got confirmation that my trip this summer is cancelled :( which means I get to reschedule the Primitivo a 2nd time. My first trip was scheduled for October, and this one was going to be in June. If you could pick any month to go *besides* September, what month would it be and why...

    October Primitivo Gear

    Hello, My step mom and I will be walking the Primitivo next October (2020). I have a bunch of gear already from other hikes, but she's planning to buy a bunch of stuff during fall sales this year. With that in mind, we're looking for some feedback on Primitivo gear for the fall. We're planning...
