    Where to stay for privacy for a couple?

    Hi - I've attached an Excel spreadsheet I found on this site and modified by eliminating almost all refugios along the route as we too will stay in private accomodations. I'm taking it on my I Pad and hard copy - 2 sided 11 X 17. I've posted this previously, but hopefully it will be of value...

    Buying a donkey near St Jean or Pamplona

    Tim Moore, a British author, wrote TRAVELS WITH MY DONKEY, subtitled "one man and his ass on the comino de santiago." He bought/rented his donkey near SJPDP. He is based in London and I'm sure you could get in contact with him via his publisher. The book is also a great read on the Camino...

    Camino Frances Accommodation - Hope this if of use
