    Once outside the city, it looked really nice. Who doesn't love a good boardwalk. 🙂

      I think they are extending it further too which would make the entire first day on boardwalk (other than the city suburbs which are never my favourite in any city). I don’t know how big the other cities are along the Way but hoping for not many more city walks. 😊

    Thank you for your special videos. Informative and gentle commentary. I depart Adelaide, South Australia for Lisbon Monday 5 August. I plan to walk the Central Route. 10 - 20 ks daily is my 'pace yourself, stop n smell the Roses' way that I prefer to solo walk these beautiful, sacred paths. Not sure about the first leg out of Lisbon but one step at a time. I walked Camino Francis :Saint Jean Pied de Port - Santiago over August - mid October in 2022. My Caminos are for my husband Ronnie who passed 24/05/2020 and with whom I travelled much around Australia and beyond. We couldn't make it to Spain and Portugal where he wanted to go so I walk solo with him in my heart. Again, thank you for sharing your Caminos in such an enjoyable and informative way.

    Bloody hell, that snoring must have shaken your bunk 😂. You've captured some lovely shots of Lisbon and coastal walk.

      He’s the new record holder and he’s in this albergue too tonight. I had a quiet word with “the boss” and hes given me a bed at the far end of the albergue. I feel bad asking but not sure I could handle a second night. The video doesn’t give justice to how masterful he was at his craft 😂

      @@NickLivingLife good on you for getting some distance from the great snorasaurus. I often wonder if they know how bad they are? I’d be mortified if I was doing it. Maybe purchase all the beds in the next place so he has to walk on 😂

      @Caminohacks spoiling myself to a private room tonight at €30. No earplugs for the night will be lovely. 😊

    Hi Nick, thanks for the lovely video & music. On a scooter??? You are really getting adventurous!! Hope you brought your noise cancelling ear plugs with you. 😂

    Be careful on the last 8kms stage Santarém > Golegã, the road is dangerous , the best thing is walk on the corn field . BOM CAMINHO

    Worst caminho I’ve done so far 😢 it was like walking on highways and dodging drivers all the time. The towns/cities (Tomar, Coimbra etc) are worth seeing though.

    • @NickLivingLife
      @NickLivingLife  7 місяців тому

      Lots of road I must agree. Less than Norte though so far. 😊
