The Way of Saint James
This was our first Camino, a tryout really to see if we would like it and could do it, from Viana de Castelo in Portugal to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Eight years later we leave in September to do our 7th Camino (The English Way) and our 8th Camino from SdC to Finesterre. The music is by Larry Penisula and used by permission.

    So when you went inland were you still on the Costal Route or did you move to the Central Route. We are 70 and walking in the fall next year so that hill looked tough. We were hoping to stay along the coast.

    • @meidbo
      @meidbo 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The walk from Esposende to Viana do Castelo is still on on the coastal route and the uphill portions are relatively short in duration. If you look at my other videos you'll see how close you will be to the ocean for most of the walk. Here is a link to a video that shows the Camino track we took each day and youll get a good idea of how flat the Portuguese Coastal route is. Skip ahead to the 8 minute mark to start in Porto. You're going to have a great trip. Have lots of fun and feel free to ask me any questions. I love helping people do their Camino. th-cam.com/video/LOL_KQMUvjA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0oT8a1sYXZOHcTuF

    • @meidbo
      @meidbo 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Brett, I have a spreadsheet of accommodations that I'd be happy to send to you. It's a couple of years old so you should verify whether they are still available or not. There is also a great guide book by Sandy Brown that I think has resources for lodging. We always found places to stay, but the pilgrim infrastructure isn't as good as on the Camino de Santiago. I encourage you to go on the journey if you can. It's difficult, and worth every step. Email me at meidbo@outlook.com and I'll send you what I've got.

    Hi Martin! thanks for this video :) my partner and I are planning to do this route in the early spring, but i was a bit concerned about the amount of highway walking you had to do. Could you let me know: what % of the walk was on footpaths compared to main roads?

    • @meidbo
      @meidbo ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it depends on the time of year. Our trip was in July and August, when lodging was a little harder to secure. As a result we modified our route to get to the various accommodations. I think if you go befor July or after August the selection will be much better. At any rate, even with our travel on the roads it was an amazing trip that I cherish. I hope you do it, take lots of pictures and video, and drop me a note when you're finished so I can congratulate you.

    I am in the initial stages of planning my Camino Portuguese starting mid April 2023. This will be my 5th Camino, the first four were the Camino Francis. There are not that many TH-cam videos showing Lisbon as a starting point. I have attempted to listen to you tell the viewer where you stayed, but I cannot decipher the last name. I got VIP something. Some of the videos include comments and show where they stayed, which is most helpful. Unfortunately so far you have not done that. Nor did you say the name of the small village where you spent the night. Or how many kilometers you walked yesterday. Maybe in future videos you’ll have a bit more information of the type that I seek.

    • @meidbo
      @meidbo 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your comments. The hotel we stayed at was the VIP Hotel Irish. Although it was a fine hotel I wouldn't recommend it because it backtracked to far toward Lisbon. Because of Covid we opted for hotel stays instead of Albergue . The hotel selection was limited as well which is why we chose it. Have fun on your Camino.

      I'm not sure what size it is but I would say it is a course die. It's definitely not fine. Die size is largely a matter of preference where one is not necessarily better than another. Make the sausage, fry it up, and enjoy what you've done. Let me know how it goes.

    The first time I did this I had the water flow too high. Using two hands to open the casing the water shot it, the casing expanded really quick and with force. The casing came out of the bowl and proceeded to go down the drain. Now using one hand to hold onto the casing, I turned the water off and proceeded to pull about 7 feet of casing out of the kitchen drain. It was one of those what the (I leave the last word to your discredition) moments. Re assuming my composure I decided to use a new length of casing and the rest is history.

    • @meidbo
      @meidbo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Quarentine Cyclist. The signage isn't as good but it is adequate. The biggest factor for us was the scarcity of accommodations in the summer months. It seems that many hoteliers head for the beach during the summer. We had to modify our route to find accommodations which took us off the path at times. This was no problem though because google maps was very good at identifying walking routes to anywhere you want to go.

    If there is one thing TH-cam has taught me is just how true it is (especially these days) to say : WE STAR IN OUR OWN LIVES. Spend any 6 hours on any day you choose to do so watching Camino vlogs. Some will cover their whole Camino walk (be it from the French,Portuguese ,Swiss or northern Spain end) in 30-plus 45 to 1 hour segments. Others will represent their experience within a single vlog lasting a handful of minutes.Alexandra Liss ( 'I would walk...'), SummitXtreme,Saint Max Media,etc., not only do the longer vlogs,but they add music,maps,and so forth.No matter the level of commitment and competence the point is the same: showing a moment in our lives; our unsung lives.So watch Mr Martin Eidbo's vlogs.Watch everyones.Watch because ordinary people are always more interesting and more diverse in their experiences and abilities than a long list of prats who just-so-happen to be famous.
