  • Yeah, I realize this is not everyone's idea of "touring", but I enjoyed it a lot and it cleared my mind from recent stress. Only real downside was being alone and not having somemeone to share the epic moments with.

    Trust me, plenty of delicious things were consumed - even before the restless food feast I enjoyed in San Sebastian

  • Yeah, I was talking about this with my mate, I know a lot of people love solo-touring/solo-travelling, but I think it would make me a bit sad not to share any of the highlights with someone! Still, you clearly had an incredible time and some of those views are genuinely to die for...

    I'm very glad to hear it. The food in San Sebastian is genuinely next level. The best thing I've ever eaten in my life came from a little pintxos bar there...

  • I think it depends how long you're doing it for and where. If you're around areas with lots of hostels it can be quite fun.

    My trip to Santiago d/C was about 2wks. Overall way too long and lonely (even for someone pretty happy with their own company). But places like Pamplona were awesome to go out and meet people.

    A particular challenge with the pilgrims route is almost all the people are walking, so they get closer as the route progresses whereas you fly-by.
