Accommodation for Volunteer
Sorry about the age thing. I was merely imaging the age gaps among the pilgrims. Actually, I met a 90+ year old Aussie grandma who walked the Frances in the Fall of 2022 with her granddaughter. She did a better pace than I did. An 80+ year-old Italian great grandma who walked the Frances for...- joramos

Accommodation for Volunteer
Sorry, I forgot to mention that the compostela will have the pilgrim's name in "Latin," or close to it (blame the computer). Many pilgrims came hurrying back complaining the wrong name on the compostela. Cafe con leche has about 30%-40% coffee, cafe cortado about 60-70%, of course cafe...- joramos

During my volunteer days at the Pilgrims Office, I stayed at the Hospederia San Martin Pinario. I did not mind paying from my own pocket (26 Euros for single room which includes breakfast buffet worth 9 Euros) because the place is about 5-minute walk to the Pilgrims Office. I did not want the...- joramos

Staying in Santiago While Volunteering?
During my volunteer days at the Pilgrims Office I stayed at San Martin Pinario, which is just about five (5) minute walk. I paid 26 Euros for my single room which came with free breakfast worth nine (9) Euros. The proximity, serviced private room/bath, and free breakfast were my motivations...- joramos
