Camino credentials ready, good to go

We just picked up our credentials for the Camino. This is essentially the booklet you fill up with stamps on your way to Santiago. It is required to demonstrate the minimum number of kilometers such that you can qualify for the Compostela, the proof and official document. For cyclists the minimum is 200, and we will do about 700 so no problem there.

This time I will claim to have done the Camino for pure religous reasons. This in order to receive the niver caligraphy version with my name translated into Latin.

Let the fun begin, only a couple of weeks until we embark on the Camino del Norte.

Hasta la próxima.

  1. Hey Douwe,
    A bunch of us are planning to try the Camino Del Norte next year. We have done the Camino Frances by Mtb this year in a cruisey 8 days, sticking to the offroad route the whole way.
    Would love to hear your experiances on the trail - was it good off road riding? Did you do it in your planned 7 days?
    Best wishes,
    Fiona
