      Clearly I won't have time while walking the Camino, but I'll update the thread with a daily log when I'm finished! Until then, let me just tell you that I'm loving every moment!

      Unfortunately, it's all the time I have at the moment, but I'll keep the Torres in mind for future reference! I think I might go with the Invierno next, but I'm always looking for new paths to discover. I know the Gerês area fairly well, I've...

      I LOVED the Geira — too bad you don’t have more time, because adding on the Torres from Salamanca to Braga is just fenomenal as they say in Spain. Well, Charrito, it’s 240 km, which comes out to 35 km a day. From the looks of it, @FreshAir is...

      As @jungleboy says, there isn’t much left of Visigothic origin or construction at Sao Pedro de Balsemao. Some of the stones had been taken from the ruins of a Roman villa, others are Visigothic. And there is a bishop buried there from the 15th...

      And after the fall of the Roman Empire, Braga was the capital of the independent Swabian kingdom for 180 years. There are things in common between Galicia and northern Portugal: similar language, vegetables (berzas, grelos), horreos, lack of...

      Yes. It's interesting how Portugal has come to be wholly associated with the Roman province of Lusitania as though the borders of both are nearly identical, but (very roughly) there is actually only about two-thirds correlation (with maybe 40% of...

      Day 60 (!): We made it to Finisterre! Some quick thoughts on the Camino Finisterre and our arrival today: Ordinarily, I think of the camino as an experience that’s about the journey, not the destination, as I’m sure many of you do. But on the...
