    Alternative route from Ferreira to Sobrado dos Monxes (Route Review)

    After following the sub-thread Camino Verde with great interest, I decided that the detour to Sobrado dos Monxes was worth it for visiting the monastery itself as well as avoiding the crowd from Camino Frances. We did it only in May this year and combination of heat+tarmac+crowd didn’t bode well...

    Amazing night at municipal albergue in Borres

    Hi guys, So, I have been dreading the stage coming into Borres, because travelling with Fuji, the only place that accepts a dog is the municipal albergue in Borres. The nearest places before was 28-30km before (in La Espina, Bodenaya, and Fontenonaya) and 30km after in La Mesa. I was worried...

    Let’s hear your Ender stories!!

    Note from the mod: I thought I would pull this out for a separate thread, hopefully giving lots of forum members the chance to chime in with their own Ender stories. @peregrina2000 I’ve been meaning to ask many times before, who is this wonderful Ender? He seems to be very heavily invested in...

    Offering ride on BlaBlaCar to Irun May 26, 2022 (and day trip to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe May 28)

    I will be doing a lot of driving solo from the UK to Spain, so I thought I’ll offer my spare seat on BlaBlaCar app (first time I’m using this as I have seen it mentioned quite a few times here). Unfortunately I don’t seem to be able to share links to the rides I have posted, so here are some of...

    Camino shell

    Made a DIY camino shell a few weeks ago. But then I heard my old professor/mentor was retiring and he mentioned he’s always wanted to do the Camino, so I encouraged him to go this year(!) and gave the shell to him. I have a smaller shell already spray painted in gold, just need to draw the...
