Hi, I hope you don't mind but I have a question regarding my upcoming camino (or part of it)
I currently live in Spain and am planning on doing the Camino starting on June 14th.
However, I have to return to the UK to start a new job on 24th June . This gives me and my girlfriend barely 2 weeks to do what would be considered the highlights.
I've read some interesting views on which the highlights are (more are welcome) but the main question I have is. Are we still allowed to stay in the Albergues?
Some people might see this as a bit cheeky but we are willing to put in as many miles as possible and seeing as its a shorter time frame and we are both young (and poor) and pretty fit we would be able to cover quite a lot of miles each day.
Can we get a credencial for just certain parts? And will albergues refuse us if we don't have many sellos or only sellos starting from a certain point?
Alternatively, is it possible we can easily find similarly-priced accommodation in non camino hostels etc?
I know it may seem like we're just being cheap, but we really cant afford it any other way, and if we had the time we would definitely be doing the full thing.
We'd really love to see this part of the country.
Sorry for the length of this post. Thanks in advance
