    LIVE from the Camino Is finding accommodation on the Camino Frances, becoming too stressful?

    OK. What's the worst that can happen? There is no room at the inn. That's neither good nor bad. Should that happen, stay open. You cannot imagine what amazing thing might occur. You're on the Camino!
