    Feeling a little judged from other commenters so...

    I did Sarria to Santiago in 2012, because I was on Fall break from my studies. It's still very hard.... don't let anyone kid you. That said, you'll be tempted to rush through it.... just relax, bring duct tape and Vaseline, and try to savor every moment. It will be over before you know it!

    How much and how long did you train?

    It really just depends on a lot of stuff, IMHO. I've been fairly blister free doing 10 to 12 miles a day for the last three weeks, but now I have them. Considering this, I would say see how it goes. That said, based on my own experience, I've been training for over a month and I still don't feel...

    Fave Accomodation from Sarria to Santiago. Also, a question of days.

    I think my two favorite places to stay back in 2012 was my first and last stop, neither of them do I remember their names. The first one was about 12 to 14 km from Sarria and was new at the time. Had a little rustique stone bar near the Camino and a modern dormitory up the hill. It was great for...

    That's interesting about the bunks and age. I've never really thought of it. Last time I walked was the end of October so I got any bed I wanted. Curious what will happen this time? Hmmmm....

    Camino Frances July-Aug...questions from a newbie!

    Technically, I'm in North Carolina right now, however, I've lived all across the U.S. and in Europe. I'm hoping to go all the way. I have 34 days to go from Saint Jean to Santiago (20 July to 24 August) Last time I went at the end of October, so I'm a bit indecisive about what to pack this...

    Camino Frances July-Aug...questions from a newbie!

    I'll be in SJP on 20 July, so perhaps we will run into each other. I have done Sarria to Santiago in the past, so I'm not much help with the questions other than to say that you can make due with what ever you have. I've layered clothes, used socks to warm my hands, trash bag poncho, etc. Best...

    July 20 SJP (Who's coming with me?)

    Definitely AcrossTheWater, I'll probably be rocking my blue Quechua with a Camino patch from my 2012 pilgrimage.

    Hi all, I've seen several posts for September and October, but I just finished booking my flights and should be landing in Biarritz on the 19 July 2016 with plans of leaving on 20 July from Saint Jean Port. Just posting here if anyone else has a similar departure date! I'm doing the Camino...
