- SJPdP to Santiago de Compestela in May(2016)
This camino vblog has been done by a 37 year old Cuban walking the Camino from SJPdP. He takes a drone with him which gives you a superb bird's eye view of parts of the route.
Throughout the videos he gives what, to my mind, is one of the truest accounts of what daily life is like whilst walking to Santiago.
You will see him staying at some of the same albergues you stopped at and eating/drinking at some of the same bars that you too stopped and had a rest.
Go to Youtube.com and insert "summit extreme camino de santiago day 1" into the search bar. He is very likeable person and at the end of every day gives an indication of what he has spent that day.
For anyone who is considering doing the Camino Frances the videos are a mine of useful hints and tips.
He did the route April May this year (2017) and has so far uploaded as far as day 31 which gets him as far as
A Salceda (last stop before Santiago for most people).
I have had a very pleasant couple of days watching his progress and his professional presentation (with some lovely bits of humour) and await his final videos with bated breath.
I am sure he will have a huge following on youtube as his work becomes better known. In my humble opinion an exceptionally good guide to the Camino Frances.
The only short coming is that by devoting about 15 minutes per day there is a huge amount of stuff that can't be shown, but a bit like a mouthful of food will give you the flavour of a meal, he does the trick!
