    Thoughts on these hotels?

    There was one place we stayed where the bed was so uncomfortable that we were in absolute misery all night. When I get home this evening I'll dig out my notes on where we wound up staying each night, I tried to journal about that part of the experience (in addition to my journaling about the...

    Lost & Found Found: women's sweater on the hospitales

    I found a dark gray (or faded black?) sweater on the Hospitales route yesterday. I thought it may have belonged to a woman we met from Vermont who had passed us yesterday morning, but when I finally spotted her again on our way out of Berducedo today she said it actually belongs to another woman...

    Thoughts on these hotels?

    Does anyone know of an email contact for Hotel Rural Chao San Martín in Castro? I've been trying to find one with no luck. Casa Ferreiro Castro is booked for the night I'll be there, and I'm worried that Chao San Martin will be also if I don't contact them early... but with only a phone number...

    Thoughts on these hotels?

    I won't be able to book train tickets for another month, but looking at the renfe schedule there is a regular morning train that arrives at noon. Definitely looking forward to being able to wander the town, and we'll probably check out the Naranco churches that afternoon too :)

    Thoughts on these hotels?

    Yeah, having a 2nd person splitting the costs definitely gives me more options for more "upscale" places - not necessarily a must-have for me personally but I think my mom will be more comfortable/relaxed so willing to spend a little more for that. For Castro, is Albergue Juvenil Castro where...

    Thoughts on these hotels?

    Thank you! I tried to find a good amount of places that have both private rooms and dorms so my mom and I don't feel completely isolated from anyone else who's walking, glad to hear good things about some of the places I picked 😊

    Thoughts on these hotels?

    Hello everyone, it looks like I will finally get to do my Camino this fall! I am a miserably light sleeper (if there's one thing being in the army has taught me, its that shared accommodations are NOT for me), so I'm planning to reserve private rooms along the way. My planned stages are below...

    What month would you choose?

    Thanks for all the feedback everyone! This October won't be an option, unfortunately, because I have a family reunion in October (and by then theoretically we'll have enough vaccinations/herd immunity to make the reunion possible!), and seeing my family for the first time in 2 years takes...

    What month would you choose?

    Is there a particular reason you like April? Weather / less crowded?

    What month would you choose?

    So, I just got confirmation that my trip this summer is cancelled :( which means I get to reschedule the Primitivo a 2nd time. My first trip was scheduled for October, and this one was going to be in June. If you could pick any month to go *besides* September, what month would it be and why...
