The Camino de Santiago hides many secrets, but why you should do it is not one of them. Discover seven reasons why you should do the Camino de Santiago.
A spiritual, personal and physical challenge
It is full of culture and history. It is an adventure that only you can live if you want to know what it really feels like to do it. It is a unique and unrepeatable experience.
Total disconnection in the middle of nature
Nowadays it is very difficult to get it in the city, so swap it for the villages along the way, which recharge your energy without the need to take out any electronic gadgets. And swap your mobile for a camera, it also captures the moment but with extra nostalgia. Just you, the sun (or the rain), the Camino and the people you meet along the way.
The friendships you make along the way
Even if you go alone, you will never travel alone. You meet people from all over the world who, if you are lucky, can become long-lasting over time.
The satisfaction of reaching the goal
The feeling of finishing what you have started is irreplaceable. Five stages (on the French Way), more than 100 kilometres travelled, wounds, queimadas, moments of intimacy and, finally, the Plaza del Obradoiro with the Cathedral of Santiago and the Compostela as a gift and a reminder of your effort.
Galician gastronomy: a delicious reason
The local food: octopus á feira, scallops, Tita's omelette accompanied by a cold beer, zorza with potatoes... Once you get to Santiago you can't leave without trying these recommendations.
Celebration in Santiago: pubs and parties until dawn
And if you're a party person and want to celebrate your arrival in the capital all night long, don't worry, the old town is full of pubs: Paraíso Perdido, Avante, Curruncho, Tarasca, Bloom, Modus Vivendi, Riquela... And if at seven in the morning you still want more, you can go from after to the new town: Gabbana, MayCar or TNT. Make a route and visit them all!
