UPDATE: I recently walked another Camino. Click here to check it out. ruclips.net/video/gfCVQF-mZig/видео.html Hi! If you enjoy the video please do me a favour by subscribing, liking and commenting. Lots more adventures to come! Thanks
Lovely video. Thanks for posting. It was great to see the Inglés in the sunshine. I walked it in May this year, in five days of torrential, horizontal rain. I loved every minute!
Loved watching this Patrick. I’ve walked 4 Caminos thus far (Frances x 2, Del Norte (1st half) plus the Primitio, and this year [2024] the Camino de Madrid). Wasn’t planning on another Camino but who knows, maybe the Ingles??? Lol😅. From another Melburnian!!!!! 🇦🇺
@@patrickdavisadventure the Madrid is very different. I think we saw another 6 pilgrims across the whole 2 weeks from Madrid to Sahagun (which was lovely because from there to SdC is bedlam, as you would know). Beautiful scenery and interesting places & history, plus a big climb around day 4. The Primitivo was one of my favourites, again beautiful scenery.
This was an awesome video. I'm walking the Ingles, my first Camino, for the first time in a couple months so this was a great preview of things to come.
Nice video. You may have inspired me to walk the Camino Ingles now. I have already walked the Frances, Portugues (central) and the Finisterre. Your knowledge of the Camino and its origins is refreshing. I recently walked the Camino Frances again and I was disappointed in how many pilgrims I met really knew nothing about the pilgrimage itself.
Thanks for your message! I am walking the latter stages of the French Camino, and the Finisterre, later this year. The Portuguese has been my favourite so far.
Nice video mate, we are doing the Ingles mid September and it will be our first. This has just made me more excited for it. Got yourself another subscriber :)
Thanks Patrick and congratulations on a great video of the Camino. Very timely as I have just followed my cousin Anne and husband John Field sharing their journey on WhatsApp.
@@patrickdavisadventure I was watching the video tonight with Olivia and Michael and when we got to your impressive monologue about St James, I said loudly and proudly "That's my Godchild giving this great account". We all learnt a lot from your Camino Pat. My cousin Anne and John found it a very spiritual pilgrimage and attended the Pilgrims mass in the cathedral and were lucky to see the swinging Urn "Botafumeiro"
I saw you vlogging in Sigüeiro 😄 almost made It into your Video. The white horse gave me a really hard time. It wasn't on a leash and always walked towards me and I am a bit scared of horses. But at least I now know It was friendly 😂 greetings from Germany
@@patrickdavisadventure haha gladly there were two spanish women/pilgrims and together we were able to walk past it. So probably there were more pilgrims who struggled 😄
@@patrickdavisadventure It was my first Camino. I quite enjoyed It with all the ups and downs in between. First time in my life I had to experience knee pain 🙈 some parts were steeper than I thought. Did Not expect that much Autobahn 😅. Next time i would choose a different Camino, maybe the portuges? How do you feel about the Ingles?
What you witness there is the marvelous reclaiming of the indigenous culture after colonialism by the Ottomans. It is remarkably generous, not just industrious to foster a spiritual experience by welcoming pilgrims to their communities. The heart of the people... it’s a beautiful thing.
When I went to Compostella I learnt that the name means "field of stars". The word 'stellae' has also always referred to the headstones or tombstones that are placed in cemeteries. Underneath the cathedral it has been discovered that there is a real field of headstones dating back at least to Roman times and that the church was built over this ancient pagan and I suppose early Christian burial place which has its roots in ancient times. This has been partly excavated I believe. The "stellae" or stars are also a reflection of stars above our heads and were laid out on the ground as headstones / stellae.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I want to do Camino Ingles this spring/summer but can't understand the weather during this time. Which month did you do it?
Santiago fue uno de los apóstoles que llego a Hispania a predicar, regresó a judea o palestina y allí fue ejecutado. Sus discipulos le trajeron de vuelta, parece ser, y le enterraron en esa zona de Galicia.😊 Las leyendas siempre tienen una parte de verdad.
@@patrickdavisadventure Primitivo ,, more wilderness , remember its just a personal opinion you decide what you like as long as you have fun which is the whole idea (enjoy)
Too much pavement is increasingly becoming a problem on the Camino 😢 as traditionally scenic routes are being changed to get pilgrims into the cities so that shops and hotels can benefit from tourist income.
You can avoid a lot of tarmac if you get off the new official route and follow the original route (the previous official route before they changed it). The old route is clearly marked in the Brierley guide and on various apps.

How wonderful! I am going to look up the Camino de Madrid. The Primitivo is a goal of mine. What did you like about the Primitivo?

@@patrickdavisadventureI just completed it a few days ago. Absolutely loved the Inglés!
New sub here...I enjoyed walking the Camino Ingles through your eyes. Thanks. Buen Camino...
Thanks for your support. Cheers.

Caminando por la hermosa Galicia.
Si. Me encanta Galicia ❤

Oh was that you that was waiting for the farmer to move the horse on?
@@patrickdavisadventure haha gladly there were two spanish women/pilgrims and together we were able to walk past it. So probably there were more pilgrims who struggled 😄
Yes I am sure! How was your walk@@scetterling?

Otomanos? Indígenas? Pero, en que país piensas que estás? Estás en Galicia, celta y romana. Aquí los árabes (otomanos, dices tú?) no dejaron nada.
History is complex don't don't think? Many different peoples and cultures have influenced the north of Spain.
2:38 We got stuck in the same bush path xD
😆 so misleading! Maybe we should set up a special stamp there? 😂

@@nataliadi9 Hi Natalia. I did it early July. It was very hot and there wasn't much rain. In Galicia rain can come anytime!
Está bien que se conozca el camino inglés,
Gracias

What time of year did you hike this camino?
Hi Dave. I did it early July :)
Hello! Just curious, maybe I missed it - what time of year did you go?
Hi! I did it in Early July.
@@patrickdavisadventure thanks so much 👌🏼 planning on next Easter
What time of year did you do it?
Hi! The start of July.
✅ NEW SUB
Thanks for the sub
The first day is rubbish.
My least favourite Camino.
Lucky you for having the time and means to have experienced so many.
camino Ingles, Way too much pavement , there are a lot better places to walk
Hi Claude. Yes there is quite a lot! What’s your preferred route?
@@patrickdavisadventure Primitivo ,, more wilderness , remember its just a personal opinion you decide what you like as long as you have fun which is the whole idea (enjoy)

@@JohnVianneyPatron best comment yet !! EX; Portuguese costal route
