That's it for now, Moissac is this year's stage destination. For the first time, I was on the road for two weeks, as the train journey there and back each took nine hours. In summary: The Via Podiensis is truly beautiful and varied. I mainly walked on natural paths or side roads, where you could often

My dinner at Christoph's was great. He had prepared a fresh vegetable soup, salad, vegetable quiche, and homemade yogurt. We had a Martini Rosso as an aperitif. This morning was similar. So, well-fed, I set off in a light rain. And things didn't improve today. On the contrary, at some point it was pouring

I almost overslept this morning. I didn't wake up until after 6. At 7, I went to the breakfast room, where someone had already prepared everything for me the night before. So I set off on time in a light drizzle. It must have snowed quite a bit during the night, because there was still snow everywhere

I didn't set off until 8 this morning. It was quite frosty, but very beautiful. Halfway through the walk in Limogne, I stopped at a very typical bar/café. Perfect timing, just before noon on a Saturday. It was quite crowded. People kept coming in, having a quick chat, drinking wine, coffee, or tea, and

After the exclusive gîte last night, I started my walk this morning well-rested and refreshed. It was a historic Camino today.

After finishing off last night's pasta, I set off at 7 a.m. this morning to tackle the supposed 36 km. After 500 meters, it started to rain. I changed my clothes and continued uphill, only to get caught in a light snow flurry. Thankfully, the rain stopped after about 30 minutes. After 13 km, I arrived

Today was almost as perfect a day as yesterday. But I don't want to bore you. I'm sitting alone in front of the fireplace, letting my insights flow. What I really don't understand is why most hiking enthusiasts avoid longer tours in winter. With six years of experience under my belt, I can say the advantages

Today was the perfect day for hiking. Cold, dry, sunny, and good terrain. Plus, I was able to take plenty of breaks without getting wet or cold.
When you have all day to yourself, you can think about all sorts of things. What I always notice is the completely unambitious innkeepers, and occasionally innkeeperesses

Hi Peter, you seem to have better luck with the train than I did on my return journey.
My pilgrimage plans for next year aren't finalized yet, but I'd like to make it to the start of the Camino del Norte.
Have a good time. Bon Camino!
