    Camino Friends

    by all means exchange contact info. I often think of people from around the world that I met on the Camino. Some are on this forum. I'm still in regular communication with two friends from Ireland and we have visited each others homes in the US and Ireland after the Camino. There are others...

    Kia Ad on the Camino

    it's an ad campaign aimed at Korean and U.S. market as he reflects back on memories of his Camino. I'll never take a KIA over the Pyrenees ( I hope 🤔) even though crossing them in a vehicle is much faster than a pilgrim walking or arrive at Santiago in one. Brought back great memories

    Is it hot in here to you? A thread for Sharing Tips for Hot Blooded persons!

    Not that I recall. I was the one in a tee shirt every morning while everyone else sported a light jacket. They couldn't understand why I wasn't cold.

    Why so many green doors in Spain?

    I found the doors in Spain intriguing and fascinating. I took pictures of doors all the way from St. Jean to Santiago and they came in all different shapes and colors, some ornate and some plain, some handcarved, some with great detailed hardware, etc. I hope to put together a book of the...

    Pulpo, pulpo and more pulpo

    While I'm an adventurous eater, I was really reluctant to try pulpo in Galicia but boy am I glad I did. I couldn't seem to get enough of it. Highly recommend it

    Love it! Imagine my surprise to see the first photo of him in St. Jean Pied du Port at the Hotel Continental. That was where I spent the night before starting my Camino. thanks for all of your time and effort in putting this together.

    To Cook Or Not To Cook

    Hola Frank. Sorry we won't be on the Camino at the same time. I too, like to throw things together to come up with meals. Would probably learn a thing or two from you. Buen Camino and buen provecho!

    Genealogy Research

    I love genealogy. If by chance they were Catholic, you may want to check the church records. Once you find their home church there are usually baptism, confirmation and marriage records in the books

    Weather at Roncesvalles

    The assumption is that each of them saw it. You can place all the signage in the world and people still miss them or don't read them.

    Valuable things I learned on the Camino

    A couple of suggestions, if you see a pilgrim dining alone invite them over to eat at your table or vise versa. Language barriers are quickly eliminated these days due to apps like Google Translate, etc. I met a German pilgrim at a cafe near the train station in Santiago and we dine and...

    Camino Apocalypse

    I didn't realize that there was a Renfe ticket office at the Pilgrim's Office in Santiago. That's really important info for me and others I'm sure who will need to take a train to Madrid, etc. Thanks

    Nelia--I'm from Dallas too and will begin in Burgos on September 16th. Perhaps our paths may cross depending on how where you will be starting and ending. Buen Camino to you! daniel

    It's (not really) your Camino

    The Spanish word Camino is often used interchangeable for journey, so while the Camino proper may not belong to me, my journey does

    You Keep Using That Word, I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means

    Thanks everyone for all the great laughs today with our language. I hope that you all got a kick out of it too (in other words "a laugh") buen camino to all

    You Keep Using That Word, I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means

    This is a great thread. It allows us to laugh while learning from one culture to another. Speaking Spanish I was bewildered when I asked what the egg dish on the countertop was he replied Tortilla. I thought he was having a brain lapse so I asked again again he replied Tortilla. I tried to...
