    Advice for Camino journey starting from Madrid/Leon

    We met friends in Porto after our Camino and spent a week at a wonderful Air BnB in Poiares in the Douro Valley. It was a wonderful way to relax, reflect and enjoy the beautiful scenery around us, take short day trips, and share our experiences with good friends. It didn’t detract from our...
