Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Portugues May 2019
So excited...the time for my Camino is now arriving. Just had to shout it out once again and also see if someone has the link to what i saw about a service that can transport your backpack? I plan to carry mine and have trained with it, but want to have the option if it exists. I am walking from Matahinsos on May 4 then when I get to Caminha some days later crossing over from the coast to Valenca to join the Central route thru Galicia to SdC. Any more input? Had great advice about the cross over route which is why i am taking it as well as starting (and staying) In Matahinos
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
TuiTrans can transport your baggage from Porto north to Santiago. See more in English here. Bom Caminho!

HI Martha, I'm also starting at Matahinsos on May 4th. I'm taking the bus from Porto just to try to save a few km for the first day and rest a troublesome foot. I have a turquoise Osprey backpack and a blue sun hat. I'm sure we'll meet up somewhere! Andrea
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Use Tui Trans, they did 13 pick up and drop offs when I did the Camino Portuguese last year and not one hiccup. Great reliable service.

Buon Camino
