    Efrén González QR code

    Last I heard, he was taking a group of people "as a guide"(for a fee) on the camino. He was planning a Camino in Japan, and was going to use a regular scooter (not an electric one). Texasguy

    What is a Pilgrim/What is a Pilgrimage?

    Somehow, I agree with you. After walking the French Way in 2012, for the first time (3 times after that). There is no way i would walk that Camino Again. Currently is a tourist destination. This year I walked the Camino de Invierno, and although the services are very slim, and it is a very...

    Wanting to avoid all albergues

    This could be an option. If you are in the US, many folks are booking with REI. It all depends of the kind of experience you want. Buen Camino, Texasguy

    How accessible and frequent are bathrooms on the Camino?

    Sometimes, we create big things in our heads. As always had happened to me, The Camino will provide. Rather than over plan and worry about all the details, just start walking, and then worry, if there is a need. Buen Camino

    WHY would you do a winter camino?

    Quercus22, I have just finished another Camino last week. I was trying to do it from Porto, but due to the rain in the last 2 weeks, I started in Tui. We could not do the Camino del norte due to snow. The Camino was better than ever, few peregrinos, but people really enjoying walking in the...

    WHY would you do a winter camino?

    Some were closed, however, before you leave the one for the day, you always checked on the one in the next etapa(the allerges have a list and they talk to each other to let them know how many are going that way). Not a problem at all, the only issue/gift was, we had 20 cm of snow in Ocebreiro...

    WHY would you do a winter camino?

    All my caminos have been in the winter. My two Camino Franceses, My Portugues, my Camino Ingles, and hopefully, this year My Camino del Norte. There is nothing like enjoying the beauty and solitude of a winter Camino. The cold weather, the getting into the albergues and sit in front of the...

    Silly me, wanting to fall in love on the Camino

    Michelle, Thanks for your email. I am back in the US today after a wonderful 6 weeks Camino. I finished the Ingles and started the French, but had to stop 100 Km before getting to Santiago. I will be back, God willing, next Spring or Fall. It was another great GREAT gift in my life. During...

    Silly me, wanting to fall in love on the Camino

    Dear Mickie, Those moments when the wind whisper to us, when the rain tells us to enjoy it and keep on walking, the quiet yet noticeable songs the birds play for us, they are ALWAYS reminders of those who have walked with us, and now, although not in a visible way, are stil journeying with us...

    Silly me, wanting to fall in love on the Camino

    Sometimes things are closer than we think. Enjoy your Camino, listen to the wind, and the rain. If she means to be there. She will be. If not, maybe she is close to you, wherever you are. Texasguy

    Christmas Day on the Camino.

    I am currently on the Camino as we speak. I got into Porto yesterday afternoon. Because of the size of this city, the amount of people driving in, and the "starting to celebrate early", it was a little scary at times. Remember, you are on the main hwy coming into the city. I arrived at 5:00 PM...

    Meeting up with a group of friends who start at a later point on the camino

    I would do your first Camino by yourself, the next one with your friends. For me it was the best way. I loved it. Even now, walking the Camino Portuguese, the walking alone refreshes me, and allows me to reflect where I am in my life. When I walked with friends, I did not get the time to...
