Embark on a Pilgrimage: Walking the Portuguese Camino Together

Guided trip
I have always wanted to walk one of the Caminos. For the past few years I have been thinking about this idea and I feel like I am finally ready for this experience. 😌💪 After careful consideration I have decided to walk not alone, but with couple other Trip Mates. First, I know that there are some solos who would like to walk Camino, but they are afraid to do it alone. Second, my past travel and JMT experience showed that meeting new people in such kind of trips can be a life changing experience. 💛 Thus, I invite you to walk with me. We are going to do The Portuguese Camino - Coastal Route. It is more flat, suitable for first timers, not that challenging, also perfect for nature lovers. It is 280 km in total and requires 12-14 days to finish the route. 🥾 If you would check my profile, you could see that my specialty is trips related with mindfulness. :) I am all into psychology, yoga, mindfulness and balanced lifestyle. I am a yoga teacher myself, so there will be definitely some short stretches before/after the walk. 😁 Also some breathing, meditation techniques on the way on our short breaks. 😌 However, please do not think that you have to be yogi to join my company.😊 I do party sometimes, I love electronic music and cold beer on a warm summer day. :)) I consider myself as an open-minded person who thinks that everyone is just doing their best to enjoy their life and find happiness, in whatever way or path they choose.😊 What is included in the price: - Planning of the route. I will plan the whole route from the first to the last point with possible places to stay in between. You won't need to take care of that. - Planning of the trip. I will take care of all the details for this trip: Camino Pilgrim Passport, places where to stay during the walk, etc. - Recommendations and assistance before the trip. I will provide you with a PDF document and all the relevant info on how to prepare for walking the Camino, what to take with you, etc. - Accommodation in Porto. Hotel on our first stop where we will meet each other for the first time and prepare for the walk. - Accommodation in Santiago de Compostela. Hotel for one night at our final destination. -Accommodation during the walk. I am a control freak.🙂 Usually I like to plan every single detail, so there will be 0 surprises. However, for this trip, I want to be more spontaneous and don't book accommodations in advance. One reason for that is that I want to be free to choose where we would feel like we want to stay for the evening. Another reason, is I don't want to force our group if at someday we would decide to walk less or more. I picked the dates for this Camino, so it won't be in the high season, meaning there will be plenty of available accommodation options and we won't need to book in advance. We will be staying in Albergues (hostels for pilgrims). And don't worry, I will look at possible options in advance, to be on the safe side. 😊 Accommodation costs are covered in the trip price. Basically, all you have to do is just buy plane tickets and come with your backpack. 🎒 What is not included in the price: -Flights. -Expenses on food, and drinks. 8-25 euros per day, depending on your needs and preferences. Do you have any questions? You can let me know in the Q&A section.

5/5
Miglė is the best person someone could have for a first JMT experience! She was so welcoming and went above and beyond to make my time in Druskininkai and the rest of Lithuania amazing. I felt at ease and at home from the moment I arrived. The activities she planned for me were a perfect blend of relaxing and exciting - starting every day with yoga in the park was fantastic, but we also stayed active with hikes, bike rides, a night out in Kaunas, and kayaking with friends. Druskininkai itself is a beautiful city with a great history and plenty of interesting stories that Miglė shared. We visited museums, parks, restaurants, spas, and lakes. Even though every day was packed with activity, Miglė never made me feel rushed. Anything I wanted to do, she would take care of the booking and make sure I was able to get there easily and on time. This included rides to and from Vilnius airport. I HIGHLY recommend spending time in Lithuania and trusting Miglė as a trip leader. I hope to have many more experiences with JMT as a result of my experience. Thank you Miglė!
