    Is 5 days in Finisterre a bad idea?

    I spent 2 nights there and would have liked to stay one or to nights more. I was so happy to sit on the beach, to walk over the hills to the faro where i could have spent a whole day. To enjoy the last days as a "cool down", I would not need anythong else than looking at the sea, good seafood...

    Where to start past Le Puy to save 4-6 days

    You could take a bus next to Saint Cirq Lapopie to go to Cahors. I did it years ago, and Rome2rio still shows the bus: leaving in Tour de Faure several times a day during the week and two times on sundays. So, you would not miss the wonderfull walk from Bouzies along the river and lovely Saint...

    LIVE from the Camino Camino del Salvador, April 2024

    No, though I think that the weather will be warm, maybe hot, may be rainy, you never know. And yes, there are only few beds in some places, but I try not to worry about. As worst case there is a dayly bus from León to Oviedo that you can take in the next village to go to La Robla and to come...

    Silk liners can't take hot dryer? What do if bed bugs?

    I painted silk scarves for years. The colour is fixed with steam, i.e. at more than 100 °C. Since then, I no longer worry about washing silk in hot water

    The massacre of a dear resting place.

    Nearby there is a memorial for victims of the Spanish Civil War: 300 people were buried there in a mass grave. Perhaps there is a connection? Monumento la Pedraja, gps 42,3738535, -3,3409197

    Long pants and long sleeves in summer? Smart or big mistake?

    I use to wear a longsleeve silk top , (dark blue as there is a certain transparancy). It dries within a few minutes and it is very lightweight.

    Botafumeiro

    According to my planning I thought that I arrived on a Sunday and might have the chance to see the botafumeiro swing. Actually I arrived on a Wednesday and didn't even enter the Cathedral before the next day in the morning. I was so surprised and happy that I saw the botafumeiro swing...

    Looking for accommodation recommendations in Leon

    Recommendations for rest days

    If you stay one day in Cahors, you can easily take a bus to Saint Cirque Lapopie , (ca. 40km away on the river Lot), a lovely town but quite touristique. Then go back 5-6km next to the river on the Chemin de Halage, wonderfull way that ist partly carved into the rocks. You can take a bus back...
