    How Camino starts..

    I hear you !! No fun … working around delays and connections. I’m flying from Oz to USA tomorrow and have had to spend hrs with my flight centre Angel getting me onto a flight leaving 8 hrs later that allows enough time for connecting flight. 🙏🙏. You can plan in detail but the airlines...

    Is 5 days in Finisterre a bad idea?

    Hi @JustJack I’m all for a nice rest before heading home too - especially as weather should be getting nice there. But you say that one of the reasons for the 5 day plan is that (private) accommodation in sdc is too expensive. Have you checked with San Martin Pinario ? The private single...

    wanting to get back on the trail, but knee issues

    Wow -I’m lost for words. You have given it everything. I think this is the safest way. I’m like you- I’d prefer to carry my own pack if possible but it’s more important for you I think., to give your poor body some help … don’t over stress it this camino. I see that you are very strong and...

    In 2016 … the bag transport vans (from Conques )would offer to carry pilgrims in the van along with the backpacks. 🎒

    Free Airport Shuttle from Booking.com, is it real?

    Usually on booking dot com .. there is an option on the reservation to ask a question / directed to the accommodation booked. I’d pose your question to them.
