Hi Nadine , great informative video, I am thinking of doing the English way next year , ferron to st compostelle , Have you done this 😊heart❤

I love your voice!

❤❤❤

Wow... maybe, the best Camino video I have seen. And I have watched many. Wonderful.

Good advise!

quick question about morning coffee: I saw you packed a few instant coffee sachets - is that necessary or will I find vending machines at albergues? I'm just genuinely worried I might have to hit the road before having my cup of joe (awful!)

Thanks!

Thanks for this (and all the other videos!) - they are really excellent. I have a question - I was driving through Spain some years ago and remember seeing pilgrims walking on a path alongside the edge of the road- I would really not enjoy this! Could you recommend which Camino or Camino is quieter and away from traffic noise? Thanks so much

This may sound odd. But every time I revisit the thought of doing the Camino, I feel like the Lord is talking to me. Tell me "Do it!" It seems like an overwhelming endeavor to take on. Something as easy as placing one foot in front of the other...Perhaps, one day I'll do it.

I am not sure it is the right place to write it, but it might save some people from the misery me and my friend had been in. Rule n1: don't bring your dog to the Camino. Rule N2: DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG TO THE CAMINO!!! Rule N3: Read the first two carefully!!! Unless you want to sleep outside during the whole Camino, don't bring your dog. I know it seems like the best place to go with your dog (at least that's what I thought - trees, rivers, nature... Awesome time to spend with your doggo, right? Wrong!!!).. It was super awful to be wet to the bone after two days of rain and not being able even to enter to dry out clothes. We froze like hell. And although I am quite used to sleep outside, during the Camino you will be very tired and at least once in a while it is good to sleep comfortable (not even starting about shower and all that).

Interesting topic! I always bring grip ring with me and pressing them from time to time. Never get my fingers swolen. And I never go peeing, I drink like elephant all day, galons of water, and all that water go somewhere hahah

My mistake was getting locked out of my albergue in Astorga. I had never stayed out late before, so I wasn’t even aware that albergues had curfews, even though I had been walking since SJPP. I went to Mass at 8 and had dinner afterwards with two new Camino friends. We had some pretty intense conversations at dinner and it was about 10:30 when we finished. I got to my albergue at 10:50 and the street was dark and albergue locked. I knocked and phoned but there was no answer. Fortunately my new friends had shared their contact information with me, so I contacted them and they invited me to stay with them in their hotel suite. I slept on their couch, and all was fine, but the experience shook me up, imagining what might have been. My sleeping bag, my pack and everything was in the locked albergue spread out on my bunk. It was a cold night. Thank goodness for my Camino angels.

Oh so good summer came and new Camino adventure begins! You made me fall in love with Camino so it's my third one. I start soon, will continue Norte from Villaviciosa and then in Ribadeo I will conect to Camino Del Mar and stay by the coast all the time till Ferrol and then do Camino Ingles. Can't wait to see your Norway adventure, you're my inspiration, thank you for all.

Hola! Que bonito! ❤❤❤ nosotros hicimos una serie en inglés, francés y español sobre el Camino - aquí ua-cam.com/play/PLHvce-kc-eat9sTm76IFI-RbyeOv-q6JO.html&si=zLOryIzMPEq30p9s

'The camino never ends', so true, thanks.

Love your bunny picture in the background 🐇

Hey Nadine, do you film with a selfie stick? Do you have s recommendation for selfie sticks?

Summary: Be nice. 😇

I love your music choice 😊

Thank you

Thank you for all the information. the podcast about Primitivo came perfectly on time. Very excited for your walk in Norway. I will say Buen Camino! then you will tell us what is the appropriate word for that one :)

I REALLY appreciate the time you take to make these videos

I start my first Camino on June 28th. Your channel has been of great help. Thank you ❤

A great item to bring is a bicycle with saddlebags. Maybe even an electric bike.....ha haha 😂umh🤔

Nadine, these are my favorite videos. I'm walking this mid September! Thank you for all you do for us here!!

Beautiful!!!

I can relate to sosme of these! I use hiking poles to help with balance and to keep sausage fingers to a minimum, but the result is a funny "hand tan." My hands get really tan, except for a white stripe where the straps of my hiking poles go around my wrists. I have learned to put sunscreen on my hands, but eventually they still tan on a multi-day hike.

My question is I'm not a sleeping in dormitories type person. Is it possible to find private rooms along the four caminos you highlighted In your other video. Are private rooms very limited or easy to find?.

If you rub soap on nettle stings immediately after getting stung it will stop the pain and irration

Better not to stay with everyone at the same place. We need to spread the wealth

Hello Nadine, Just a question about the Camino de la Plata. I see there are lots of longer segments that are too long for me. I would rather break them into 2 days. Are there enough albergues (other than ones at end of prescribed segments) so I could do this? Or would packing a tent be recommended...not that I'd want to add the weight, but....

Thank you for posting …hope to do my first in the spring 2025

Thanks!

Norway is fabulous. Have fun.

Hi Nadine, #5 I’m afraid I cannot comment, I haven’t enough hair. #4 caffeine is a diuretic, (makes you want to go). Maybe one con leche a day, one glass of juice a day (vitamin C). Then water? Who knows, maybe I’m just a fuddy duddy, when it comes to such things. #3 Tan lines. Have you noticed that there are whole albergues, full of pilgrims, with these tan lines? I wonder if the Spaniards think it might be an invasion. #2 I probably do get rashes, I just need to listen to my body more. #1 when marching (hiking), clench fists and swing arms. Do it with purpose (control), rather than just waving your arms about. At break times raise arms above head, stretch out fingers and wiggle them (this is called waving to the stars, they’re there even in daylight). Wave to the stars a couple of minutes at the beginning of a break and at the end. Also, if you get the opportunity, lie on your back, yes in the dirt, preferably with your ankles, legs and buuuutocks supported against a wall. For a couple of minutes. This will allow all that blood to rush back to your heart and head…. The only thing I do different is I make sure I carry “dioralite”, it’s lighter than Aquarius because it’s in powder form, I use it for rehydration. P.S. love the Durer, it adds to your study…

Thank you so much Nadine. I am leaving in three weeks for the Camino. Remembering this video will make feel in good company when these things happen to me. I know they will. Buen Camino!

Two years old video, you probably know by now, but get a peak design Capture Clip.

yes

How wonderful to see you again here. Thanks for taking the time to post. I can understand how busy you must be ( I used to be a teacher !!).I was away for a few weeks, walking the Camino Portuguese (coastal and Espiritual). I am looking forward to listen to your podcast with Dave. As a matter of fact I was also one of his guest (episode 69) about the Via Podiensis. I am now writing another book ( ON FOOT IN FRANCE has done well in USA) and I hope to publish in 2025. It will be about the Camino Portuguese which I think does not have many books on the market (except guide books). The Camino is a wonderful place to meet people. My Camino family is still growing. Enjoy your time in Norway. BTW: The Camino Primitivo could be a choice for us for 2025.. Still not decided.

Not looking forward to the sausage fingers! I'm leaving for my Camino Frances tomorrow and watching this as I finish my packing. Thanks for all the tips Nadine, your channel has really helped me to prepare!

I get sausage fingers unless I am using walking poles. The only real problem is if you are wearing rings which can become painfully tight. The other thing to manage is lack of appetite. I tend to only snack during the day with a big meal in the evening. But then I get hit with “hikers hunger” and eat twice as much as normal. I lost 7lb on my last Camino but also put on a little muscle.

Hiking sandals are special :-) In rainy and windy conditions, your feet will be cold so its more of a warmer weather thing. My skin actually became too dry. So dry that the callus that had formed, cracked open and it was a quite a painful wound that didn't close bc the skin was missing its flexibility. I'm done with sandals and trail runners are my go to since years now.

Great Video! Thanks for sharing!

Excellent video! Very clear. Very concise. Very informative. Buen Camino!

When I was in Greece, I had the best hair days too! I think it was the lack of humidity. Those are the best days!!

I gotta say, on my first camino I washed my hair rarely, but I found that afterwards my hair did not only not smell, but it looked great! I decided to do an experiment, and ever since then I dramatically reduced how often I wash it. I rinse it with water every couple of weeks and use shampoo maybe once a month and it has never seemed healthier! And I have a lot of hair now haha...

A Norwegian trail, how exciting!! 🤩 When will you start?

Sweaty acid does wonders everywhere....for weeks. To start walking, may be better doing a short pilgrimage like to Fatima and back...from 80-90 km away...

Thank you for making these videos. They help me a lot in preparing for my Camino.

Great message. My wife and I have walked 6 caminos and never get tired of the experience that you have capturei in your video. Brian and Jenny
