I left Santiago in the afternoon to go to La Coruña. There i arrived around 8 in the evening and then i had to go out of the city to find a place where i could put my tent. It was not easy at all to find one and so it was already dark when i finally found a little forest.
In the morning i was quite happy that no one came to see me. I left to go to Ortigueira where i stayed another night with a family from warmshowers. Again it was a great experience! I had dinner with the family and after i went to have a beer with the son.

In the morning i said goodbye to everyone and off i went to Ribadeo to sleep for the first time in pilgrim albergue. It was a nice albuerge but the problem was that i arrived late and the 12 beds were already occupied. A very friendly couple told me then that they can sleep in one bed so i could stay there. Ufff...

As i woke up in the morning around 9:30 all the pilgrim have left the albuerge and i had it for my one. So i started my day rather late and i tried to do a pilgrim passport but unfortunately i couldn't get one.
The next night i put my tent in a forest. I think i never set up a tent as badly as i did it that night but it was not possible to do it better due to a lack of space.

On the next day the weather was even worse. It was drizzling the whole day. Luckily i new that i could stay in the house of Noemí in Llanes otherwise i wouldn't have the motivation to cycle in this weather.

Pilgrims of the albuerge of Boo de Pielagos recommended me the one in Güemes and so i went there the next night. As in all the albuerges i met a lot of wonderful people.

The goal for the next day was to arrive in Bilbao. It was a wonderful day and i could stay in Bilbao in the house of Maite. A lovely spanish woman. Bilbao is a charming city! Yesterday i visited the Guggenheim museum, it was fantastic! I stayed three nights in the house of Maite and tomorrow i'll go on to attack the pyrenees. At the moment it's quite hot here, around 37 degrees so it will be not easy to cycle with this temperatures.
