    I re-use the ‘disposable’ sheet and pillowcase many times. No need for new ones each day. Too much pollution. Thank you for an interesting video. Buen camino.
  • @alsever7732
    Albergues are where to stay! Have walked 6 caminos and have never pre-booked! On the Primitivo, the Municipal albergues had DOZERNS of empty beds while the pre-booked tourist places were full. A lot of people appear to be AFRAID to stay in albergues! If we do not use the Albergues, we will lose them--lost the albergue in Dozon on the Sanabres from lack of people staying there. Do it right--NO pre-booking and No taxis to carry your pack! Rather than spend money for your backpack to ride in a taxi, consider buying a bed or a meal for those who walk with nothing!
  • @YourCaminoAmigo
    The best experiences I've had at albergues have been between the typical stages. Just stop in when you see something interesting. Usually you'll find very involved owners and experienced pilgrims who know all the pilgrim etiquette. Usually you can find family style meals too!
  • @JenniferRazon
    I’m walking the Camino Frances this coming May and your videos are helping me prepare for the journey. I’m really excited as I’ve been wanting to do this walk for so many years and now I finally get to do it. Thanks for sharing all the info and knowledge.
  • @galtmann8482
    Hi, it's Grace from California. Thank you so much for this very informational video. You answered a lot of the questions, and I am very appreciative of all of it. I will be making my first camino in the autumn, at age 71, and this video and the one from a few days ago have been instructive. Thank you🌞🌻
  • @Deiacatlover
    Thank you for the information!! I will be walking Camino Primitivo next July/Aug
  • @mazenklojan
    Hello :) I've been watching your videos for a while now, getting ready for my first camino :) In this video you say that you cannot book albergues at all, but in the linked video in the end, you say that you can book albergues the night before or even from home before the camino. Is this something new from this year? Is it only for the camino frances?
  • @goonerhill1668
    I saw an albergue host deny a german because 'she didn't like the look of him'. That was the worst albergue i stayed at on my camino. I read all the weird and terrible google reviews of that place after and believe all of them.
  • @davidabbott1788
    Hi is there a booklet that lists donativos and municipal Alburgues?
  • @troydasilva3685
    Hey guys. I dont want to be negative but i have noticed in your shorts and other blogs you refer to the Camino de Santiago alot but when you do that you are only talking about the Camino Frances. Maybe you should try to enlighten your subscribers others. As your poll question was about problems with the Frances pointing people to other caminos might help alleviate some pressure which it is experiencing right now. Just a thought, maybe 2 too many beers after my walk today on the Mozarabe😁. Dont get me wrong i enjoy your content. Love you guys.
