- Camino Frances through to Finisterre (May-June 2014)
Hola Peregrinos and Peregrinas,
With only 6 weeks to go, I'm trying to make sure I'm all set before heading off for a great adventure.
I've purchased a 3 month travel insurance package with Allianz but was wondering if any of you have bothered getting any travel vaccinations before heading to Europe or to walk your Camino?
I know Spain is a developed country but considering walking the Camino and staying in possibly crowded Albergues or hostels... did you ever feel the need to take precautionary travel vaccinations? And if so, what did you get vaccinated against?
I'm of the opinion that I may not necessarily need travel vaccination but maybe past, present or future Camino walkers may have some invaluable advice for me.
I haven't traveled much nor for long periods so this will be my first long trip away, I'd like to learn a bit more before I decide if it's worth seeing a doctor about having travel vaccination for travel in Europe or whilst on the Camino.
Any advice would be most appreciated.
Buen Camino!
Marie
