    Camino now

    Why are you worried Kristinka? Go with a open mind, you are the most important and your Way. There is no such situation on the Way that the pilgrim cannot overcome. Believe in yourself and go 😇

    Camino Portugues - Which Guidebook?

    Hi GuyA :) when I walked CP, I did not use a guide. Why do you think that you need a guide? I had Maps.me on my cell phone, nothing more. I did not get lost and I've seen everything I wanted. You are a pilgrim, put some adventures in your Way :)
