• Camino individual - Vilanova de Arousa

    April 25, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    The apartment I chose last night was amazing!
    The bed was comfortable, the hospitalero was really nice and prepared breakfast today and...they had shower gel smelling of "Campino" candy ("Fresas y nata" for the ones understanding spanish 😂😂).

    Speaking about the hospitalero, he was very interested in my journey and since there were again 2 options today, he helped me a lot with the planning (again thanks to my Spanish skilks, he was probably feeling very comfortable talking to me 😂).
    The yellow route leads straight to Pontevedra but is kind of monotoneous.
    The blue route can be done half by boat (Pontecesures to Vilanova de Arousa) and half by feet (Vilanova de Arousa to Pontevedra).
    Since I am doing the Camino the other way around, it was tricky with the boat trip (first boat left at 1pm).
    Therefore, I decided to simply walk and on my way, I found a beautiful place to stay close to an Island which looked very interesting to me (somehow, I am attracted by islands and love to discover them 🥰).
    My hike to the city was not very spectacular, the majority on concrete and along busy roads but tomorrow should be a lot better!
