      Personally this grumpy old man could not agree more with the other grumpies and the wonderfully vibrant and far younger @trecile who say walk an uninterrupted camino. This is not to brag but to tell you we have a bunch of caminos between us and...

      Another grumpy old so-and-so here, not giving you the advice you are asking for. I strongly recommend what Vacajoe is suggesting and starting closer to Santiago and doing one long walk. If SJPdP is important to you then give it its fair due and...

      Thanks for the insight! I'm very close to being a grumpy old so-and-so myself (if you ask my wife of 36 years, I'm already there) and I appreciate the straightforward response. My wife recently had her knee replaced and can't join me this time...

      Thanks everyone! I really appreciate that you ALL took the time to read through my list so carefully and to give such great comments. I also really appreciate your praise--it means a lot coming from folks with so much experience. I weighed...

      Day 0? I’m here 😊and I start my slow coastal camino tomorrow! Feel blessed and recognize the privilege it is to be able to take this journey. Tomorrow a short walk to Matosinhos - just right for a walk in the rain! Am looking forward to being...

      Bom Caminha! I’m counting the days, we fly out the 11th, hoping to start in Porto the 14 or 15

      Starting a journey for me starts with the planning. This year everything aligned so here I am about to leave Canada to begin my 2nd Camino - the Portuguese Coastal. With three weeks to get my mind and spirit in camino journey mode - this forum...
