    Please talk me off the ledge

    Blimey Mikeylats ! It sounds like you've been reading my diary from my first night in Pamplona! Troubles hemmed me in from every side. Or so I thought. My summary when I wrote it up several months later after having walked to Santiago. "Sometimes I get nervous / When I see an open door /...

    Portuguese way last 100km

    Now I remember it. The walk along the river was lovely.

    Portuguese way last 100km

    Was there a specific reason why you wanted to start in O Porrino? I guess I must have walked through on my way up to Santiago, but I can't say that I remember much about it. I'm wanting to go back and walk some more in that area and wouldn't want to bypass anywhere that's worth a visit Buen Camino

    March 9 (2022) first time peregrine says ultreya

    When I walked wayyyyy back in 2015 I took my sim card out of my phone and just used WiFi. The phone used to tell once in a while that I didn't have a sim card installed. I agreed with it and it carried on working. WiFI gave me access to my emails and the internet. I didn't and still don't use...

    Hola hello yiassou

    The walk out of Porto is certainly a great way to start a Camino if you have the extra time and as has been said the Portuguese people are so so helpful and friendly. Bom Caminho!

    Woo hoo - I get to go!

    Having the buffer is excellent. You don't need to have return flights booked, so you're no longer walking to a schedule. I felt it made a big difference on my first Camino. Sure, you may not get the cheapest flights back but.... for a break that's been three years in the planning and is still 18...

    St Marys, Cleland, Motherwell, Scotland

    Ya wee cheekie lass! Yes it was a choice of square sausage or link. I went for the square, commonly known as Larne sausage.

    St Marys, Cleland, Motherwell, Scotland

    First of all, Buen Camino. Ordering a wee breakfast at Carfin, which is only a country mile from Cleland, I was baffled when I was asked if I wanted "squirrel ink". Anyone want to make a guess what the options really were.

    Priest needing advice on first Camino

    Welcome to the forum Di. Sarria to Santiago is very achievable. It's just a series of short walks, back to back. The classic English speaking guide would be Brierley, but don't think you have to follow his stages. You can break things up. How fluid you can be will depend on when you walk. If...

    Priest needing advice on first Camino

    Mr Magoo. Mr Magoo !!!! Top effort on the training plan. But I don't think the Catholic church approves of people exercising whilst praying. They're all in favour of people praying whilst exercising though. 😁

    Offer to bring up the rear each day. That way you're not seen to be holding people up. Buen Camino

    A Yorkshire lass with red hair walking across Spain in July and hoping for not too much sun ? As a Lanky lad I'll pray for rain each day for you. Buen Camino

    Bom Caminho. I walked from Porto on my second Camino and found it very quiet and beautiful.

    Water issue

    Hi Leani If you're walking the CF then you certainly don't need to be carrying 4 litres all at once. ( I'm thinking in terms of the weight here. ) On most stages you can get a water refill roughly every 5km. Northern Spain prides itself on the quality of it's drinking water. Fountains which...
