Hmm, nice point. Is a couple a group or a duet?
Me and the Beloved have probably done 10,000km within bickering distance of each other along the thousand roads to Santiago. Does that make us a group or, given that bickering distance, does that...
Excellent account of your Camino David thanks for sharing and for all the advice. You may recall we spoke in A Papuxa in Ribadavia. I was a bit busy because I was with the owners of a tapas bar in Santiago who invited me out for lunch, as during...
We just finnished Camino Torres a few days ago. Our costs in hostels/hotels were from 30€ up to 60€ for double rooms.

Thank you, David, for your very diligent descriptions from both routes and from Salamanca, and wonderful photos! Have a pleasant ride tomorrow!
I will be back with some questions when I have a bit more time, if you don't mind?
