    Is 7 day walk enough to feel the Camino?

    Hola @Zara123, I see that you are from Spain, so you might even start your own Camino from your front door. 😍 How lovely is that? Many of your compatriotas walk one week at the time and return the next year to pick up where they left. That is a great way to walk a Camino, there is no rush and...

    Pilgrimage or vacation?

    Belgian royals walking another part of the Camino

    European royals, in fact all Europeans, have a right to private life and to be left alone when they are not in an official function.

    Spring Camino, where?

    Supermarket Carrefour has an on-line overview of gluten-free products: https://www.carrefour.fr/s?q=sans+gluten Lots of crackers and toast to top with les fromages. 😋 Plus French specialties like cassoulet, duck with lentils and gratin dauphinois. Here's a cake, gluten-free, for inspiration:

    Spring Camino, where?

    In France / French, always start with a greeting, at least one compliment and lots of regrets and excuses. This will open many doors! The tendency is to be as factual as possible, for obvious reasons, but in France, the golden rule is to do the groundwork first. You like yoghurt and fruits or...

    Camping on a Camino Portugues route.

    dream on and please add 'fiction' to your postings. this forum has an ample section about SAFETY on the Caminos, and SAFETY FOR WOMEN is of particular concern.

    Camping on a Camino Portugues route.

    will you be staying at official camping sites? or are you planning to sleep rough? I see that you are from the Netherlands. would you camp in the countryside if you were hiking there? why consider it in Portugal?

    Can I do the camino at 16

    your daughter did not walk her first camino aged 12 on her own, or did she? she had training and help from adults before she might have walked alone at 16. we do not know if this is the case of @countryroads and without further info, the comparison is unfair.

    Can I do the camino at 16

    being 16, you will need a written document with the consent of your parents or guardians ~ make sure to have this in Spanish. and what is wrong with Oregon anyway? too boring?

    Sur Les Chemins Noirs

    Chemins Noirs are Unpaved Roads. After drinking a little too heavily, Sylvain Tesson climbed the outer walls of a hotel and clattered down eight metres. A days-long coma and a tough recovery followed. During his rehabilitation, Tesson promised himself to walk 1,300 kilometres across France...

    Five Extra Days

    I would go to Valencia or Málaga for the coming days. the weather forecast there is good. https://www.eltiempo.es/valencia.html Ronda near Málaga is on my wish list, but in the mountains and the sierras temperatures are much lower.
