Is it possible to make a reservation from outside the country other than by phoning them?
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I phoned Fernanda using the Viber app on my phone. I buy "Viber Out" credits, and phone calls to/from Spain and Portugal (and other countries) are less than 2 cents per minute.


I use it while in Spain to make phone calls to places that aren't on WhatsApp.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll definitely look into this.

Exactly. Like the " Variante Spiritual ". Casa Fernanda is not my style but luckily others find it welcoming and warm.
Casa Fernanda is great but I can see how it isn’t everyone style. I personally would have loved it under normal circumstances but I was recovering from food poisoning in Porto and really exhausted after walking in downpour to Fernandas. I am glad I went though. But if anyone is seeking a great communal meal on the Portuguese that is a little more chill, I recommend Ninho/Pilgrims Nest in Rubaies. It’s only for people staying at the albergue, so make a reservation a day or two in advance. Not having to walk down the road to the only restaurant is quite a treat after hiking a mountain that day.

The Variante Espiritual is less traveled than the Central Way. So to me it is more quiet, especially the Agua y Piedras path out of Armenteira. And the monasteries in Poio and Armenteira are so nice to stop for the meditative reflection that many try to experience on camino. Not sure how it’s a “must do” since hardly any do it. The thermal waters at Caldas de Reis seems more to fit that bill. It’s why I avoid it. Too many people.

Thanks for the number I was able to send Fernanda a text message today and was able to make a booking for May, must say she responded quickly.
