    No room at the inn (Najera)

    2 nights,ago I stayed at San Lorenzo hostal. I can't recommend it enough for a single, double or triple room in Najéra. Great hosts, good breakfast. High quality bed linen and towels. In the old town almost on the camino.

    Hotel Continental, St Jean PdP

    If you want comfort for the first night, hotel Central is in a good location, very nice hotel. Gîte accommodation mostly on rue de la Citadelle offers a more authentic experience. Depends on what way you prefer to start. Buen camino.

    Descent into Roncesvalles

    The pilgrim office in SJPDP recommends not to take the forest route. The alternate is quite beautiful.

    Excited for my upcoming bed reservation in Borda!

    You won't be wrong in splitting your stage from SJPDP to Roncevaux and staying in Borda. It was my 2nd time crossing this point of the Pyrinees. I had a leisurely walk up to Orrisson, a lovely sunny lunch with no rush to the fab views outside Borda while waiting for it to open. The following...

    hotel in St Jean Pied de Port

    The Central Hotel is family owned. As it says, its very central! The owner was very nice when I stayed there in Oct this year for 1 night. Nice clean modern room. I didn't have breakfast. It was the end of my camino so I did enjoy the comfort. I stayed in a very nice gîte before that, communal...

    Hi, I booked there recently on my android phone. It translated straight to English. There is a reservation request form to be completed. No money was requested upfront. I got a confirmation email around 24hrs later.

    LIVE from the Camino Animal tracks in snow - can someone identify?

    Any idea on these prints on the Via de la Plata just before entering Galicia? It's a ladies size boot, not large.

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    Hi Stephen, Well said! Yes and no. In one way it helps you understand where you are and in another way can confuse you for a while.......going walking again can be a "cure" but knowing you can go, really go may actually be enough.

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    Hi Silvester, I certainly can associate with the feeling that my body need to wait for my soul to catch up on difficult days on the Camino! What I think is helpful is to go back over posts on this forum some time after returning and even rereading posts. These reminders help me keep the Camino...

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    Hi hans2hike, When I found it difficult to adjust to home I found the forum helpful in that I was not alone. I agree that everyone's experience has to be different and each journey different. Like you I am planning a home Camino in Ireland on a very beautiful trail through Part of Dublin...

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    Well done Crusader!! You seem to have brought the Camino home with you. The feelings I felt after my long stint in June 2014 was very different to my recent short walk from Santiago to Muxia and Fisterra. I'm glad I didn't wait until next spring to go back. I left myself as open as I could have...

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    Hi Joe, I couldn't have said it better. I'm giving it another try to concentrate more on the spiritual aspect of the journey starting this October 2014. I'm starting from Santiago to Finisterre/Muxia. Thus, for me, completing the St. Jean to Finisterre route Any helpful advice/experiences...

    How do people adjust to home after their return from the Camino?

    I I agree that there is a definite religious/spiritual presence on the Camino. There were quite a few occasions that we were helped and assisted along the way, it was astounding. I would agree to your advice to "pay attention", and continue to pay attention when at home. I, like you did not...
