Camino Frances
I walked few years ago the Camino Frances and the Camino Finisterre. I have few days off in one week and I would like to walk in Spain again. I am considering two different options:
1)walk again the Camino Finisterre from Santiago to Finisterre/Muxia
2)walk a part of a "new" Camino. I really like to walk on the coast so I am considering both the Camino Portoguese and Camino del Norte. The plan would be to do 3-4 days now and come back later to walk another bit. Which stages can I consider on these caminos? Possibly places that are easy to reach and where there aren't too many restrictions with covid, like hostels that are closed etc.
To add: I am walking solo but I would like to walk on a Camino where is common to meet people.
I had the following experience when I walked:
1)Camino Frances in May-June: generally quite a lot of people. From Sarria a lot of people
2)Camino Finisterre in June: less people than from Sarria, like the earlier stages of Camino Frances I would say
3)Camino Portoguese: I have friends who walked it and they told me that some parts are not so nice, they were walking mostly by themselves without meeting pilgrims on the way (I am trying to avoid this)

I have been incredibly inspired by so many stories of loss, pain, diagnosis, or other stories that tug at my heart strings, but one pilgrim, since lost in the threads here, was an 83 year old man...
I started my training walks last fall in preparation for the camino frances this year. This included walking in the mall in bad winter weather (ugh!). My husband was undecided about joining me...
