Hi friends of the camino,
I am a first timer at the camino and choosing to walk solo on the primitivo in early Aug. Here's something I need your input on.
1. Since I don't speak Spanish, is it easy to get by speaking English? Especially to make conversation to stay at the albergues along the way?
2. I am quite worry about not getting a bed at the albergues as it is a busy season in the Aug, is it safe or possible to bring a tent and just sleep along the way?
3. My family is a bit worry about the latest missing person incident in the camino as it was in our local Catholic newspaper lately and I am thinking to give them my latest update regularly but it seems that not many albergues have wifi, is there a cheap way to get internet in Spain ? I saw about the wifi egg but it cost around 8 euro/day, it seems a bit much for my budget.
4. I saw the other post about the naked guy in Oviedo, I really do hope to meet some good company in Oviedo for my start, is anyone starting there at that time also ?
Looking forward to your great input !
Maria
