Happy May Day! I’ll be on the last 7-8 stages of the Camino Portugués Central route later this month.

However, I want to provide details on these routes sooner, so I am collaborating with people who are walking this spring. Camino collaboration was one of my intentions for 2016 for the blog, so I’m happy to introduce James Portelli as an official Route Reporter for the Camino Inglés 2016.
James and his wife Rituccia (“Tucc” for short) reside in Malta. They will meet up with friends on May 12th to start the Camino Inglés on May 13th from Ferrol. After reaching Santiago, they’ll continue to Finisterre, so we’ll get to see a bonus report “from the end of the world.”
James takes gorgeous photos and documents his travels with the perfect amount of practical info and thoughtful reflection. Here’s a sweet intro that James provided to get a glimpse of what’s to come.
