Hi again, new here, so so is there anyone out there also walking the last 100km of camino Frances, 19th - 27th Nov??? Its my first time walking the camino & i am travelling alone so i am just a bit concerned regards level of activity on the walk, am i likely to meet people and also is it hard to find accomodation , last thing i want to happen is to arrive somewhere close to dark & there not to be anywhere open, panic attack central ?? I would prefer not to book with a company as i would like to do it at my own pace and for my pace not to be determined by lodgings pre booked! Hoping i might even get out to fisterra and bus it back to airport, however would like a night in santiago, see im a complete novice & the more i read the more i want to do, but i dont want to be unrealistic in my goals, as i just wasnt to be able to experience the camino & all it has to give. I am waiting my Brierely Guide to arrive in the post but just would really like the opinions of camino - goers & their experiences of walking in Nov. Thanks

Hi. Welcome. Just saw your post now so you have probably already been on the Camino. For me personally its about the journey and not the destination. One tip I learned is try to get to the Alberque by around 2pm or soon thereafter, and you have a very good chance of finding a bed even in peak season - at least in the early stages of the Camino from SJPP. I understand that the closer you get to Santiago accommodation might sometimes be a problem in peak seasons if you arrive late afternoon or evening, but I have only done the first 200km myself.
