While hiking the stretch from Sarría to Santiago I noticed large groups of students hiking alongside and staying in the albergues. I am a teacher in Indiana USA and I would like to take a group of students to walk with me that same stretch. I want my students to stay in albergues instead of...
Speaking Spanish is not an issue. I am fluent in both Spanish and English. I appreciated the hospitaleros who gave of their time and energy to help us all on our Camino. I would like to do the same. For me as well as the "Caminoists"

I took the bus to Finisterre and finished my Camino the right way for me. We Peregrinos went to the lighthouse, burneditemsmused on the Camino, and I watched the sunset while reflecting on what happened to me. It was the perfect way to end it for me.
