    Disparaging "The Way"

    I’m an Aussie who watches Hollywood movies, but had never heard of The Way when we decided to walk in 2017. We first heard of the Camino from a client In the early 2000’s when she walked. In 2017 my husband listened to an interview about a women who took her disabled sons on it. He said to me...

    I recognised it but couldn’t remember where. It is a great place. We had the private room under the roof.

    The Camino does NOT start in StJpdP - discuss

    Having started from both SJPP and Somport, I have a thought. Yes, SJPP may be marginally easier to get to. But Somport was only a train and bus ride from Pau, which is a lovely place. Somport does not have the infrastructure of SJPP. It is basically an albergue and bar with a collection of ski...

    Staying in Porto

    Stayed at the Yes Porto Hostel in October. Well run, 4 bed rooms, wrist band security to get in the front door and the room. Great mix of pilgrims, and travellers of all ages. Good evening meal and breakfast extra as well as a good kitchen. Good location, could see the tower from our room.

    Dogs

    Our new best furry friends we met a couple of times on the Aragones last year. They were having a ball and the little one even got a ride when his legs got a bit too short 😀

    "Ghosted" by a pilgrim friend

    This was given to me some time ago when I needed it. Very wise words. A R E A S O N, A S E A S O N, O R A L I F E T I M E People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do. When someone is in your life for a...

    How long did it take you to walk from SJPP to Santiago?

    Greetings, We did it in a total of 40 days which included 3 rest days. Could have done it quicker but we had self confessed turtles among our new Camino family. Ended up timing it to arrive in Santiago on the 31st October 2017, just in time for All Saints Day. A very special time.
