    Signalling in Vigo

    Rueda meanwhile is ignoring pleas to protect a number of other Camino zones that are being threatened by massive development projects and others which are actively being destroyed. This is very sad. Would a petition from Santiago put any weight in their decision against this development?

    Signalling in Vigo

    Porto to Villa do Conde

    Absolutely doable. Break it up into sections, I prefer walking at least half before noon, take your electrolytes, rest up but move on. I just did it this past April.

    Starting from Matosinhos on Wednesday!

    Ahhh, Matosinhos ... one the best lunches we had was at the Fish Market. You pick the fish or seafood you prefer and the restaurant cooks it for you. Absolutely delicious. I finished my Portuguese on April 30th from Lisbon, got my friend to join me in Porto and did the Litoral way all the way...

    Wise Pilgrim or Buen Camino or both?

    I did the Frances in September 2022 with no apps, only armed with Brierly guide book and materials given to me by the Pilgrims Office in SJPDP and did fine -- this Camino has very good infrastructure, it is well marked and it's nearly impossible to get lost.

    Wise Pilgrim or Buen Camino or both?

    Thank you, this is the one I plan to use starting my Portuguese from Lisbon next Sunday. Mid April, a friend will join me in Porto and she'll be using Wise Pilgrim ... we shall be able to compare. Buen Camino
