    Camigos in Devon (UK) cafe meeting - Dec 9, 2023

    Hi Caroline, wow yes please. My husband and I will do our best to join you on that date. We’re down in Cornwall, so will travel up on the morning of the 9th. I walked the CF last year from SJPdP to Fisterre and my husband joined my in Leon. In Oct we worked at the Pilgrims Office in SJ and had...

    Anyone know why Spanish people put water bottles outside their front door?

    It’s to ward away the flies. We have them outside our doors and it works!!!!

    LIVE from the Camino FRANCÉS: Flies, spiders, isolation & roommates: not what I expected!

    Sometimes I think we read so much about the Camino that are expectations are too high, then when it doesn’t happen like we thought it would we come down to earth with a big bump! I expected to have this big Camino family when I walked the Frances last year, when in fact I spent many days walking...

    How busy will Camino Frances be in June, 2023?

    I walked in June 2022 and never once found it an issue to get a bed for the night, not even when I arrived at my destination at 5pm did I have a problem. Not saying that 2023 will be the same but personally I think your’ll be fine up until you reach Sarria and then you may need to think ahead a...

    Sleeping bag or liner in May?

    I walked the CF last May and I only ever used my liner. At one point I was tempted to ditch my sleeping bag but it was so lightweight I thought better of it. I found most Albergues supplied wool blankets for those slightly chillier nights. But I must add we were lucky to have walked during an...

    When do most pilgrims feel like quitting the Camino de Santiago?

    Haha! Just for the record I love my husband dearly, but my dog, who sadly died suddenly a few months after my return from the Camino💔 was my best friend 🐕‍🦺 (sorry, nothing to do with the original thread)

    When do most pilgrims feel like quitting the Camino de Santiago?

    There was a moment in Pamplona, my day 3, when I suddenly felt all alone and homesick (not for my husband but for my dog 🤫😉) I had no desire to walk the next morning, so didn’t rush to get up and on my way, I just sat in the cafe next door to my accommodation feeling pretty miserable, when two...

    My only regret walking

    I completely understand where you’re coming from as I went alone, but missed company along the way, especially during those special moments where you want to share your excitement. My husband enjoys walking but he would want to get from A to B as quickly as possible, where as I enjoy stopping to...

    For those not on the Camino, where are you feeling called to right now?

    I completed the CF in July, and from the day I arrived in Fisterre I’ve wanted to go back and do it all over again. Every step was special and a memory I will carry in my heart forever.

    Lost & Found Lost glasses in case between Torres del Rio and Viana

    I realize this is a long shot but if anyone sees a black and grey glasses case with two sets of glasses in it on the trail pick them up. I'm in Logrono tonight. Bueno Camino! Saturday 8th Oct…. Hi Housedog, I’ve just seen on the FB Camino page that two sets of glasses have been found today in...

    Santiago presents for little granddaughters

    For the little ones I bought a beautiful story book of ‘The Way of St James’ from the Cathedral shop in Santiago. It was a lovely story, starting with packing their rucksack and then the walk to Santiago. Our Grandsons, aged 1 and 3 love it!! It was only €5 and so light and easy to carry in my...
