I'm curious...will the albergues, restaurants, cafes, etc still be accepting mostly cash along the Camino or do y'all think that will change due to COVID? Anyone on the ground now who can report back?

Best,

I've been walking for 8 days (San Salvador and Primitivo) and I've only paid in cash everywhere.
