Thanks for that.I walk on 20 euros per day but I picnic a lot and occasionally splurge for Menu del Dia.
Hi Raelyn, last year I walked 37 day's and I spend about € 1400.I'm leaving from Canada May 5th. Just want a rough estimate of cost/day ( please specify currency). I'll be staying in the aubergues and eating there too. I'll also eat out of pack on the way or sometimes stop for lunch if cheap enough.

I agree Robo, budget is varied for everybody. It's another nice thing of the Camino. You can do it very cheap or you can splurge.A common concern and question I think....
Here are some thoughts. http://robscamino.com/27th-of-june-camino-budget/
Basically, start at e25 / day and work upwards according to your 'needs'
I budget about €30/day. You can often get by on half that. But every so often it's nice to stay at a hotel or eat something other than the menu peregrino.I'm leaving from Canada May 5th.

A couple of years ago in Santa Domingo de Calzada. I along with another cooked a big chorizo and chick pea stew, plenty of spuds. salad and a couple of water melons for dessert. We fed 14 people for about €15 in total. Some poor chap from Lanzarote had all his stuff stolen and was waiting for a money order to come through. He couldn't believe that we were giving out free dinner and was delighted to join us. We were known as the 'stew ladies' for the rest of the trip.30 euros (without extras as an occasional good restaurant, museums, medicines or equipment replacement).
It gets more expensive as you approach Compostela (there is more demand, so a bit of regional inflation)
Remember that not all albergues have kitchen facilities. And cooking for just one person, in my opinion, is not cheaper than "menú del día". It is more cost-efficient (and more fun, evidently) when many persons organize a collective diner.
