    My first Camino - Variante Espiritual from Vigo

    I would say Yes. Starting at the Iglesia de Santiago , the path is clearly marked. You won't need your phone or any maps and soon enough you'll meet people on the way, doing just local biking or hikes. The road is tarred, but pretty scenic, you'll see the port of Vigo for a while and the ria...

    My first Camino - Variante Espiritual from Vigo

    I did, even joined a local dancing party. Life is good in Galicia. Got my pilgrim passport stamped at the Iglesia de Santiago. Have to remember the 2 stamps per day rule. Heading back to the albergue now for some shut eye and an early morning start.

    My first Camino - Variante Espiritual from Vigo

    The place is located accurately in Google maps, needs and bathrooms are clean and new. I look forward to sleeping tight. That take 8 euros in cash. The exit door is on the 3rd floor. The Iglesia de Santiago is 7 mins away and has a mass at 7.30 pm after which you can get your stamp.

    LIVE from the Camino Where is everyone right now? October 2021

    Do you mean starting Oct 12, 2021 from Porto ? Are you planning to do the coastal route? I am in Barcelona now, planning to fly in to Porto this Sunday and start my camino from there. How many people are there ? While I can walk alone, I would appreciate some company along the way.

    Portugese Coastal route starting March 3

    Though I was devastated ( and still am ) that I couldnt go ( and this is my first camino and it seemed a bad omen), I am a bit relieved now. Had I gone, it may have been a stressful camino, trying to make sure I get back before the ban and worrying about having a place to stay. Many say, it was...
