    Camino Inglés

    Today at the end of the trip we visit the Holy Mass in the cathedral. Last night there was no entry due to the crowds. You are not allowed to take a pilgrim backpack with you; there is a luggage storage room next to the church in a souvenir shop where you can leave the backpack for €3. This is...

    Thank you for the mental support. I'm at the finish line at Santiago Cathedral and now I'm in the queue to receive the Compostela. I am very happy. Buon Camino for everyone who is not on the way…. Thank you for the mental support on my second St. James Way after the Camino Portugusa in June...

    Camino Inglés

    Starting the last stage of the Way of St. James with sadness. Initially a bit of road, then on picturesque small dirt roads. Big disadvantage: no really relaxation, because there is always the loud noise of the motorway, which runs parallel to almost the entire stage in a distance of perhaps 200...

    Another beautiful path from Hospital de Bruma to Siqueiro. We set off again in the dark at 6:30 a.m., walked on mostly asphalt paths through fields and forests, and after two hours we found the first, sweetly decorated bar and the first long-awaited hot coffee. Magical daybreak with sunrise and...

    Camino Inglés

    Yesterday: Another beautiful pilgrimage day! We set off in the dark at 6:30 in the morning, first through the still-sleeping town, then in the pitch black through the forest steeply uphill (difficult without a flashlight, the path is well marked, but the signposts are sometimes difficult to find...

    My sunny Camino Inglés!

    Thank you for the good wishes. After a somewhat tiring day yesterday because I panicked about not being able to find a bed in Pontedeume, I have had two wonderful days as far as the pilgrim way itself is concerned. A lot of ups and downs, but still manageable even for me, an old man (61), even...

    Camino Inglés

    Thank you for all your friendly words! Today was absolutely beautiful: the path from Pontedeume to Betanzos full of inspiring nature through the forest with birdsong, okay sometimes there was noise from the highway in between, great running weather, a quiet moment on the beach in A Ponte de...

    Camino Inglés

    That was what annoyed me a bit. She acted like she didn't understand me and kept asking questions, even though she certainly understood my mix of Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish (at least I could understand her, even if she didn't answer what I asked). But she could have simply tell me, that...

    Camino Inglés

    Thank you all for your good tips and for your criticism of my last posts. Of course I don't expect Spaniards to speak English, I didn't even mention German. I only hoped that in a hostel with a lot of international customers, there is anybody, who apels a little German. But maybe it was also my...

    Please excuse the whining. Of course, I realize that I am solely responsible if no one can offer me a free room here. I'll wait now, see what's possible at 4:30 p.m.

    Camino Inglés

    I'm pretty desperate. In Pontedeume no hostel is open before 4:30 p.m. and no one can tell me yet whether there is a bed available. I don't think I'll ever go on a pilgrimage again without reserving the rooms before. After a pilgrimage of over 30 km, I'm just tired and unfortunately I have no...

    Camino Inglés

    Beautiful path, this first stage from Ferrol to Pontedeume, just a lot of asphalt and of course the corresponding noise of the cars. But especially the beginning of the path leads through shady deciduous forests along the Ria. And in between there are small, nice villages and lots of animals...
