Thanks all for sharing the ideas. I think the lesson is just should not cook too much. As you may know, most albergue require guests to check out by 8am and everyone would want to walk early. Having it as breakfast and lunch seem don't seem to make sense unless it is something dry. Anyway...
Seriously, I cooked twice in both Albergues and I just cooked way too much. I offered to so many poeple and it was really clean as I just took small portion on my plate. The rest is in the wok or I put in a clean bowl. But no one wants to eat. I am a vegetarian, no one is interested to eat my...
In the small country where I live where there is only one city, we have app that people can share foods and stuffs. I always cooked too much in my camino trips being vegetarian and unable to find foods on winter. I do not know who to share the foods. People in the albergue who eat meats just...
Thanks. In winter like now, I don't think there is a h Chinese restaurants. I am not referring to Santiago de Compostela. I mean outside that. In Santiago de Compostela and Melide, it is easy to find vegetarian foods. Some places at Negreira too. But other than that on smaller towns, they are...
Thank you very much for the warm camino spirit. I did the Fisterra route for 3 days. My blisters are manageable with double socks, first layer is toes shocks and followed by cushion shocks. And I put on tapes with cushions and baby dry powder too. I tied the shoe strings properly not too tight...
Thank you very much for this. I think I better don't eat out again. I had to Galicia soup, yesterday evening and tonight. Now I know. I am a vegetarian not a vegan. But I cant soup with pork/fish stock. I asked the restaurants, they said solo vegetarian, no fish no chicken no pork stocks.
Hello, as it is coming to winter, all vegetarian restaurants' name that I found in the internet in camino route in both last 100km of Camino Frances and Fisterra are closed. I am unable to find vegetarian foods other than in Santiago de Compostela. Currently in Finister and been checking many...
I stay at the last stamp. Perfect for me because I am not good with location. I need to stay somewhere easy to be found. Nearby airport, I stay at Lavacolla, walked 1km fr main road. Really nice private room and price is reasonable. :) food is not cheap but service is good.
I think I will end my walk at Finisterra and I will have time to do this Rias Baixas. Yes heard about it. They have it this Friday 2nd Dec 2022. Thanks. I tried Entrada and A Porte Verde. Passed by vege house 2 days ago but too far fr cathedral. Maybe I will try when I return fr Finisterra. Hope...
Thanks. I have them. Have not used. Someone gave it to me last night. Thanks for this. I didn't know that I do not need to take out during shower. I thought I have to change everyday. I will try it out tomorrow. I am going for the Camino again. All the private albergues are closed. Hotel is not...
I am taking full day local tour to Finisterra Muxia and local proximity tomorrow. If my toes are better, I will walk the Camino to Finisterra from the day after tomorrow, didn't continue to Muxia. Thanks.
I didn't wear a pair of proper shoes. I will take picture tomorrow. It is jsut normal shoes. I bought proper shoes before but it was too heavy and stiff to protect ankles so I didn't bring. I wear something light without ankle support and soft. Many pilgms that walked pass me or walked with me...
Yes it is typo and has nothing to do with each other. Sorry. I am just very tired after long walk. I have short legs and I walk very slow. So I click on average 50,000 steps per day. Well I do respect cultures and museums a lot. But as I have very limited time, I prefer to spend time with...
Buen Camino, after completing last 100km of Camino Frances on backpack, my toes are full of blisters and really painful. Been walking with blisters for past 3 days. I dont think I could take it anymore. But I have 7 days left that I plan for Santiago to Finisterra/Muxia. Is that any...
From Singapore to walk to Santiago is impossible. :) yes finishing my camino frances tomorrow. 1 day earlier. I have 7 full days spare to do Finister. At first, I don't plan to go to Muxia. So I may have 3 nights at Finister. I may have to change plan. 3 nights at Finister maybe too long.
I am only allowed to stay in Spain for 90 days for now. I will find out more about visa for Singaporean. I don't mean to do it now. I mean this is a dream. It may not come true too, it is ok. I am just wondering if anyone here has the same thoughts with me or have done that. :)
