    First Camino from Sarria - November 2021

    I'm enjoying the information here. I have a possibility, very spontaneous, to walk from Sarria in November. After planning several times and having things come up that prevented me from walking, I'm considering this a starter experience. The tips and suggestions here have been very helpful...

    1st time camino franch in may

    Buen Camino! I'm heading to my first Camino the end of April. However, I've been backpack traveling for decades so I'm fairly clear on what is essential YouTube example of women's packing list: . Also a longer video there for packing under 10 pounds. Lots of options, go minimal, enjoy...

    Alberques and first time walker

    Thank you...I didn't realize that was there? I was planning a "future" walk, my mom fell fracturing a femur and I dropped back in full-time caregiving mode canceling plans for the Camino.

    Alberques and first time walker

    Progress! Thank you community for all your help! After feeling like I was drinking from a fire hose, things are falling into place with more clarity emerging. Most importantly...I'm reminded of my intention to flow with the Camino and make the most of all experiences. Perfect!

    Alberques and first time walker

    Thank You! I received comments on a post about taking a sleeping bag suggesting there were many different types of Albergues? ...." Municipal, Parochial, Donativo, posh-end private or rough & ready?" I wasn't aware of that?? Thus, my confusion about what the difference between them is?

    Alberques and first time walker

    I'm walking from St. Jean Pied de Port leaving in early May and planning to take my time and enjoy the experience. Since I have never walked the Camino before, I wasn't aware there were so many different types of Alberques?! Is there somewhere I can learn more about the differences between...

    Blanket clarity

    Thanks for the feedback! This is my first time. I am taking a sleeping bag liner good for roughly 25° F/ 4° C. I'm wandering, not scheduling unless I get to busy sections where it's more important (after Sarria). So I don't know what type of places will be available. Cheers!

    Blanket clarity

    I’m planning to start in St Jean Pied de Port early May this year. Thus far, I’ve been told that: 1.) the albergues rarely have blankets, AND 2.) rarely did a person need a sleeping bag because the albergues now have blankets and sheets. So, which is more accurate for the albergues on the...
