Camino Portuguese 15 Seconds Everyday - Coastal Route - Camino de Santiago
I lived in Rome for a year when I did my chef training program and at the end of the year, I made a video of my time, a sort of capstone project. As an Architecture student I had learned to document everything, so recording my time in Italy and in the kitchen came naturally. The video was compiled with one second video clips, which showed glimpses into my life in Rome. I love this technique as it allows people to connect with the experience in a different way than longer clips. I wanted to use this technique for my Camino Portuguese journey as well.

Day 9 Vlog Camino de Santiago Portuguese Coastal Route

Oia to Nigran // 12 miles On Day 9, there was a little bit of everything: coastline, mountains, walking on a highway, through small villages, and tons of gorgeous flowers! Everyday is different from the last and I’m glad I don’t know exactly what is coming next. I did light research about what to expect generally, but do not really know much about terrain or special instructions ahead of time. ...

Day 1 Vlog Camino de Santiago Portuguese Coastal Route
The stone "huts" with high standing pillars are used to store cereals, namely corn (Maize) they are called Espigueiros in Portugal and they are very very traditional on those Northern Areas bordering with Galiza.
Loved your video, question, what was your average miles or km. Per day?
Thank you! I was honestly all over the place with mileage per day, but I think my sweet spot was about 10-13 miles. You can see exactly how many miles I walked each day of my Camino in my short video called Steal My Itinerary. Hope that's helpful :)
If you enjoy this video please do me a favor by subscribing, liking, and commenting :) Many more delicious adventures to come!
Love you video. Thank you for sharing. Would you also share the hotel/albergues you used during your Camino. I’m during Camino Portugués spring 2025.
Ahhhh how exciting! I'm so glad you enjoyed my video and found it useful! I'm working on making a planning guide for the Camino Portuguese based on my experience, the guide I wish I had, with places I would stay again, suggested Itinerary, and more :)
As conchinhas são beijinhos
Love that! Thanks for sharing :)
Great information!!❤
Thank you! I’m so glad it was helpful :) And thank you for letting me know
Thank you so much for making this video. So informative. I love that you included the food you ate along the way. I'm planning on walking this route next June and I feel very inspired by what you've shown of your experience.
Yay! I’m so glad you found it helpful. I’m just trying to make the videos I wanted to see before I walked the Camino :) Enjoy your adventure and Bom Caminho!
Was it hard to find the markers for the trail? Can’t believe it looked so warm for April, it was probably freezing on the Norte route.
There were a few moments of not knowing where to go, but I made it through. I have a really good sense of direction so that helped, but I used my map app and the app called ‘Gronze Maps’ and that did the trick for me. It got progressively colder as I walked North.
Your focus on food perked me right up hehe!!! All that seafood, YUM!!!!!!!!!! Well done for vlogging! What equipment did you bring to film on and did you use microphones? When did you start and end? I wanted to do Portuguese but worry about the lack of pilgrims…. Any tips to share would be amazing. How far ahead did you book your accommodation and did you feel the coastal was the best compared to the centr or littoral for first timers etc?.
I have only walked the coastal route, but I already think it’s the best one🙃 I walked the last 2 weeks of April. Did not book accommodation more than a day or two ahead of time, some the morning of. I used my iPhone 12 mini and my hand. I have a tripod, but I barely used it, not sure it’s worth recommending. I just bought a clip on microphone but haven’t used it yet, will let you know if I like it. I used splice app to edit the vlogs. I met a lot of people, but also had a lot of solo time, which suited me perfectly. Hope that’s helpful!
Cracking piece of work. Many thanks
Ahhh thank you! So glad you enjoyed it and thanks for letting me know :)
Great job! I hope to do a similar route in the future! would love to pick your brain
woohoo yes!
I would so love to know your itenerary- specifically which cities you landed in each night for rest. If any albergues or hotels stuck out as special, I’d love to hear about them too. Just booked our April 2025 Camino!!
Ahhh soooo excited for your Camino plans for next year!!! I'm working on making a planning guide for the Camino Portuguese based on my experience, the guide I wish I had, with places I would stay again, suggested Itinerary, and more. In the meantime, I have a short video called 'Steal My Itinerary' with how much I walked each day and where I started and ended. Hope it's helpful to you :)
@@FigTreeTravelsthank you we loved your experience and will love to steal your itinerary 🎉thank you
@@claritzaabreu5260 I love that 🥰 thank you 💖 and Bom Caminho to you 💪
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Glad I found you.
Ahhhhh thank you! I'm so glad you found me too :)
Thank you for the Camino Portuguese overview…….the expresso and pastries are delicious! Would like to know how much the whole trip costs? How much training did you do? I noticed that you stayed mainly in private hotels as oppose to hostels. Did you fly into Lisbon from the USA? What would you recommend? So this is doable in 16 days? Thanks in advance. ~Namaste 😊
I flew into Porto and spent a week there first. This is definitely doable in 16 days! Most itineraries I saw (before I went) were 11-13 days, but I did not plan my accommodation in advance and booked it as I went along so I could adjust it to my pace bc I just wasn't sure how it would go. I have a lot of info on my Instagram account (check my Camino highlights there) and a reel on how much I spent on stays + food. I also wrote a blog post about my favorite pastries in Portugal (all links are in my bio) More videos are coming to YT, but it takes time. So glad to have you here!!! :)
@@FigTreeTravels Thank you for sharing....will check IS.

Nope, no big macs around here : )
Thank you for sharing your journey! It brought back many great memories of my Portuguese Coastal Camino with my daughters in 2019!
Ahhhh I'm so glad you enjoyed it :) Your Camino sounds amazing! I'd love to do this again with my niece and nephew someday
Ensaladilla rusa was my favorite- it was similar to potato salad with tuna-delicious. Other things were pastel de nata, jamón con queso, fresh squeezed orange juice and Rioja wine
There are so many tasty things to eat and not enough meals in the day. I will look for ensaladilla rusa on my next Camino, I somehow missed that one!
@@FigTreeTravels I ate it on the Spiritual Variant in a little cafe in Villanova de Arrousa
@@Getoverit-001 oh I heard amazing things about the Spiritual Variant! I definitely want to do it someday, thanks for sharing!
Looks delicious! I would love to do this
Oh I hope you get the chance, it's such an amazing experience!

Such beautiful scenery! The food all looks delish!
The views are stunning! I knew it going in and was still in awe every single day🤩 And the food, oh my gosh the food 😋
Wow. I find it interesting how much of it is in developed areas. Glad you shared this experience.
Yes, there are plenty of places to eat, refill your water bottle, and use the facilities! And I passed tons of locals who were out on their morning walk along the coast. Such an amazing experience. Glad you enjoyed watching :)

Omg. Do u need assistant? Pls hire me😂 I want to travel❤😂
HA I wish!
I did this Camino with my mom a year ago and something about seeing the names of the cities on my screen made me so happy. Reminded me of me planning our itinerary and mapping out our stays. Thank you for sharing this video!
Ahhhh I love this! You’re so lucky to have done the Camino with your mom💖 I’ve got a lot more shorts and videos about the Camino posted and still to come, check them out for more nostalgia☺️ Have you considered doing another Camino?👟✨
@@FigTreeTravels Yes! I would love to do another Camino in 2026 (2025 isn’t possible since I’m getting married and that comes with many expenses). I would love to do it with more family since it was such a nice experience with my mom. Let me know if there are any other routes you recommend! :)
@@camilatirado5582 This is the only Camino I've done so far. I'm thinking about maybe the Camino Norte for the next one?
