Experienced Volunteer Available for Up to 2 Weeks in Southern Spain

Colette Z

Happy Pilgrim
Time of past OR future Camino
CF; Norte; Ingles; Augustine; Portugues Central
I’m available as of Feb 15th to volunteer as a hospitalera of a smaller albergue or help out for a up to 2 weeks anywhere. I am in southern Spain on the coast currently, have a car and traveling with my older hound. I don’t have the official “training” but have a lot of life experience that I believe is sufficient to volunteer at an albergue. I’d appreciate replies only from those with actual info ☺️

I hope someone responds to your kind offer Colette. You have a lot of experience and love of the camino to share with others.
Buen camino
 
Good luck with your search Colette. I have volunteered on 6 occasions and would like to be able to do it more often but now that I have a dog I would need to find a sitter for her.

I personally don't know of any albergue where you would be allowed to bring your dog with you but let me know if you find one!

The other thing is that there are fewer places to volunteer in the winter...might check some pet friendly places to see if they are open? I know @LavanyaLea has found some on her Caminos? Maybe she will reply.

Hello all. Here to give a brief account of my (and many others) first day on the Camino on May 1. The trip to Roncesvalles was tough. I went Valcarlos route because napoleon was very ill advised...
I am wondering how you disconnect, in part, from the world. I have a couple of reasons that I need to be accessible but, I don't want to be constantly connected on this journey. Ideas?
Can anyone tell me if food is available there… anyone stayed recently? Cheers
If you’re walking the Camino Portugues right now I’d recommend you avoid the complementario route into Pontevedra. While it is quiet and green and follows the river, it’s also a muddy mess. I...
