Hey all, I just got my assignment yesterday. I will be serving as a hospitalera in Santo Domingo de la Calzada from October 16-31, 2011. If any of you stay there during that time, please say hello! I'll be wearing my Canadian hospitalera bandana proudly!! (I went through training in Canada even though I am American It was a great experience.)

I'm planning to fly in/out of Madrid. Still working out details for spending extra time in Spain.
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.

Buen Camino from Keizer

Come up to Portland for one of our Camino walks sometime. We have them quarterly. I post the info in the North American Region area here. I also have a Google Group setup with the link in my signature line!

Thanks!
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Congrats on your posting. We have a couple in Seattle who will be volunteering there in the summer. Martha
 
I would have liked to do it this summer, but airfare is KILLING me right now! October also worked better as far as vacation time goes. I'm trying to figure out if we will go to Bilbao or Madrid after serving. I am also interested in Portugal too. I'd like to spend a week seeing some of the things I didn't have time to last time. There's also a part of me that wants to walk along the Camino again for a bit. Or maybe go to SDC and finally walk to Finisterre....so many choices!
 
I will be leaving Le Puy on August 20th so that should get me there when you're there. I have a forum patch for my pack too.

Cool! I hope to see you. I wonder how busy it will be at that time of year.
 
Good luck and enjoy the experience, and thank you for volunteering. That is a nice albergue as well.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Congratuations on your assignment! That was my favorite alburgue, I remember the Canadian hospitaleros well. If I ever go through training that would be at top of my list, also somewhere in Galicia would be great to serve.
Altreya,
