Time of past OR future Camino
From 20 April 2024
Hi all, I started in SJPP on the 22nd of April and I am in the Corean albergue Orion im Castrojeriz this night. Everything went surprisingly easy until now (touch wood).
Nice people everywhere (pilgrims and locals) and after the first days, I stopped booking beds. I always find something.

I'm just wondering: did I meet anyone of the Forum until now? I'm Willem from Luxemburg.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Why don't you just outright ask everyone in albergue if anyone is a member of the Forum?
Also I would not call Albergue Orion a "Korean" one just because it's "famous" for its billimbab IIRC none of the staff is Korean
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

Does the owner at Orion still do the basement wine tour? I was there in 2021.

True. Albergue Orion should not be called Korean Albergue simply because it is popular due to its "bibimbap" dinner. However, their "bibimbap" dinner is authentically prepared by the Korean lady (Changsui), Dani's partner in the albergue.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

Are you thinking of the Ultrea albergue in Castrojeriz? They serve a community dinner and there's a big wooden winepress by the dinner table. He does a fun basement wine tour and tells great stories. I've stayed there twice and translated for him during the tour. He's a riot. Love that place.
