    Whatever, I’m going

    Hi, just got back from walking the Inglés then to Fistera via Muxia. Don’t fret about COVID, fully vaccinated, you’re incredibly unlikely to become seriously ill even if you do pick up the virus and that in itself is extremely unlikely. Accommodation as always is likely to be your overriding...

    A new start tomorrow

    Flying out to Biarritz on Saturday, starting out first thing Sunday morning. Had intended to start from St Jean on the Frances but have walked in temperatures close to 40 on the Frances before and don’t want a repeat. Doubt that we’ll catch you before Santiago but have a good Camino. The...
