    Ex Porto: A Beginners experience/learnings (May 2024)

    Thanks for sharing! I always like to read about others people’s packing lists. Btw: I also encountered a heavy snorer on the Portuguese way this year,(I did not know one could snore so extremely loud!) and I can tell you that earplugs did not help 😉

    Experiences from my coastal Portugues Camino 2024 with my son

    Thanks. I think the journal is a great idea. My son would have loved to draw during the Camino but unfortunately he broke his wrist a week before we went on Camino. I am sure you will have a great time together with your daughter. For me, at least, and for my son also, it was really good to...

    March Camino with my kid

    Thank you , Vince, for the helpful remarks. I think I will have to develop a „plan B“ weather-wise, if there is a storm from the Atlantic , such as a rest day in private accommodation. Thanks, dbier , for the tip with opening times of accommodations: I did check Gronze before and saw a lot of...

    Which Camino to choose if the CF is too crowded?

    You might consider starting out on the Frances and later on switch to another route if you find the CF is too crowded for your personal taste/mood. This is what I did on my first Camino. I had the same question before my Camino. Will there be too many people on the Frances, too few people and...

    Madrid to A Gudina on ViadlPlata?

    Dear all, thank you so much for your help. It didn't occur to me to look for Gudina, A. in the list of destinations. ;-) @ Andi: thanks for the advice with the casa rural on the way to Laza, I was also thinking that maybe over 30 km is a bit too much for the first day walking... so excited...
