    Where is this

    Not 100% sure, but I'm almost certain that's Redecilla del Camino. I have a photo of myself with the identical footpath and pavers in the background. The road behind the statues, and across the street, is where the Camino enters the town.

    What's with the big bulls on the hills?

    When travelling through Spain in 2015 as tourists, not pilgrims, one of our accommodation hosts told us that whenever you see a huge bull silhouette anywhere, it means it is a bull-fighting region.

    Travel Question - Car rental and driver's license

    We hired a car from Santiago for 6 weeks June/July this year (Alamo I think), and we DEFINITELY needed a IDL. For the nominal cost of the IDL (at least in Australia), it's worth saving yourself a massive headache if things go wrong.

    Albergue Izar, Viana

    Thanks for contacting them Wisepilgrim 🙏, that's brilliant. Gives me a little more peace of mind. No wonder I love this forum, everyone is so helpful 💐.

    Albergue Izar, Viana

    Thank you so much for your reply Gerald. After having emailed them twice, I took Trecile's advice and Whatsapp'd them last week. Still no reply though 😞. I'll wait till April 1st, and if still no response, I'll try booking at one of the Viana hotels 🤷‍♀️. Thanks again 😊.

    Albergue Izar, Viana

    Hi all! Not sure if I've put this is the right category or not, so Moderators, please feel free to move it. Can anyone tell me if they know if Albergue Izar in Viana is up and running after Covid? I'm trying to book 1st May. Their website, plus Gronze both say they open March 1st, so I would've...

    LIVE from the Camino The French Way - NobleHiker Chronology

    Loving your blog, especially the photos of Nobody ❤️. We leave for our first Camino exactly 12months today, so your photos are giving me a good idea of what to expect (although I know the weather is never the same year after year). Keep up the great writing 👍. Buen Camino 👣

    Long time listener, first time caller!

    Hi Anamiri, my best friend (who just happens to be a Kiwi), and I are starting our 1st Camino late April 2023, after delaying it from September last year. Hopefully we'll meet you along The Way somewhere. Buen Camino

    Reflections of a first-timer on the Camino Frances in 2020

    Thank you Ivan for your beautiful narration of your Camino Pilgrimage. I cannot help but be impressed by your honesty. I am yet to walk my first Camino, and I will walk as a hiker, not a pilgrim, and I had not considered the difference, until you pointed it out. You photos are breathtaking, and...

    Sleeping in a dorm room where there's someone with a CPAP

    My husband uses a CPAP machine, and I LOVE the soft white noise it makes. Very soothing, making it easier to sleep. To the point that I have installed a 'white noise' app on my phone for when he is away. I haven't walked my first Camino yet, but I'm sure your fellow pilgrims will be more than...
