Arturo - you breaking my heart!
After your EXTREMELY Great Hospitality in June of last year (and following that up a kind deed of sending the stuff I left behind to my next Albergue) all I could do is sing praises to you and the place to all of my friends who are considering The Camino in the near future.
I myself have another "go-at-it" planning in 3 years and it was never a question in my mind as to where I was going to stop on that stage.
I hope the "personal reasons' you are mentioning are not life-threatening and could be adequately overcome perhaps in due time
Good Luck and BUEN CAMINO! ❤️🙏

Arturo - so sorry to hear that you are selling your beautiful albergue. You made our multiple stays there most enjoyable just by providing such a calm and restful atmosphere. It became one of our favourite albergues. And - the lower bunks are spacious enough that we could sit without twisting our necks or bumping our heads on the upper bunk ! If we hear of anyone looking to buy a lovely albergue we’ll think of you.
 
What a joy it was to experience your hospitality Arturo and Piera! I am sad to hear this news but all the best to you both as you move on. If I should hear of anyone interested in purchasing the albergue, I will have them contact you. Buen Camino!

Ohhh Lilly! Our hearts are with all of you and all of yours with us. Albergue San Miguel will continue giving such an unique experience on the Camino. Hugs!
 
What a beautiful place you have. I am sorry now that we didn't stay in Hospital de Orbigo last year. I would have loved to paint there. Best of luck in your future endeavors.
Thanks very much! This albergue will wait to host you on your next Camino and you will leave a little part of your heart here for the rest of the pilgrims. Buen Camino
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
One of the favourite places I stayed last year, I hope whoever takes it on can match your dedication in providing it (and your patience and calmness in dealing with 'difficult' pilgrims that I saw in action)

Buen Camino! Edith

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Sad to hear. One of the best experience on my CF in 2019.
Hope that there will be a good soul to manage that special albergue.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
This makes me sad. I hope someone with the same kind of spirit can be found to run the place.
Ohh Rebecca, coming from you, will all my respect for you, this water my eyes. I offer our humble experience to all the people who need it, regarding the managing of one private albergue like this, in case someone need it in the future. For sure, we'll meet on the Camino again. We are all pilgrims, all seekers. Warm hugs.
 
Did you got into it? Hugs!
Hello, I shared the link to this forum page with my brother who I thought might be interested. He thought it looked like a great opportunity, but it's not something he is prepared to do at this time. Best of luck to you.
 
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.

Dear Arturo, we stayed in your albergue in September 2021. I enjoyed conversation we had. Staying with you was a highlight of Camino during corona times. Wish you and family all the best. Vida from Slovenia
 
I stayed here this September. I feel privileged I got the chance while you still owned it, Arturo. What a wonderful welcome you gave me. I wish you joy in whatever comes next for you.
