      I thought you were going to say that they grabbed all of the fruit and didn't leave a donation before jumping back on the bus. 😅

      MTowers reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread Camino by Coach with Like Like.
      Santiago is probably the only major Christian pilgrimage destination where any fuss is made about how pilgrims got there. I think the decision in the 1990s to introduce a 100km minimum walking distance for the Compostela was a mistake - mainly...

      MTowers reacted to t2andreo's post in the thread Sarria Complementario alternative with Like Like.
      Now, if we could amplify on the alternative route out of Sarria, like all the way to Santiago, we would have achieved something truly beneficial. Let the “100 km Club” have it their way. I would trade convenience for contemplation. Perhaps, one...

      Hi Maartje, I arrived in Leon today and will walk the Salvador to Oviedo and then continue on the Primitivo. I am Dutch and speak some Spanish and are more than willing to check it out for you. Kind regards Monique

      I thought forum members might find this intriguing, as it is an annually scheduled pilgrimage, of sorts, in rural central Spain and Portugal. A small-boat convoy travels, over a month and a half while the weather is still not too hot, down the...

      I don't know the answers to your questions, but I do know I've had days like these.. tiring days, boring days that I question what I'm doing here at all. I'm always glad of my own bed at the end of a camino, but still, the longing comes back...

      Hi, Luka. I am not surprised to read your post. You were not in the best of health, from what you posted. Now you are home and probably need time to get your oomph back! Give it time. Take a little time to just stop, and breathe. Your last...

      After walking in rainy and chilly Galicia for about a week I ended up in a warm hotel room, feverish and with a cold. And I asked myself: why am I doing this? It felt like truancy, but I decided to spend my last couple of days in a studio in...
