Friend from Barquinha reacted to backpack45's post in the thread Message from the Roncesvalles albergue - a difficult day. with Like.
All I can say is that my first day was in Roncesvalles, back before the new facility was built. This was in 2001. I don't recall that anyone spoke English. The beds were full, people were setting up for the night on mats on the floor and there...

Thank you from a first-timer. I’m taking the bus from Pamplona to Roncesvalles on Monday, 6 May. I was unable to get a reservation and freak out every time I see the forum notifications come through my email. I keep reminding myself I’m in Spain...
