Triacastela. We chose the route that stays off the asphalt and goes more through forests. This route is also shorter with 6.4 kms.<\/p><p>Food\/water:\u00a0<\/p><ul><li>Furela, at 10.4 km from Triacastela<\/li><li>Pintin, at 11.7 km from Triacastela<\/li><li>Aguiada, at 12.2 km from Triacastela<\/li><\/ul><p>Accommodation: Albergue Xunta de Sarria, a municipal albergue, with a capacity of 40 beds, for 6\u20ac\/bed. We have a kitchen where we can prepare ourselves a meal.\u00a0<\/p><p>Sarria is a big city, that is a starting point for many pilgrims towards Santiago de Compostela. Therefore, we have many other albergues available here, somewhere around 18 private albergues. Some examples below:<\/p><ul><li>Albergue A Pedra, 23 beds\/10\u20ac\/bed<\/li><li>Albergue Alma del Camino, 96 beds\/9\u20ac\/bed<\/li><li>Albergue Barbacoa del Camino, 18 beds\/10\u20ac\/bed<\/li><li>Albergue Casa Peltre, 22 beds\/10\u20ac\/bed<\/li><li>Albergue Credencial, 40 beds\/9\u20ac\/bed<\/li><li>Albergue Don Alvaro, 24 beds\/9\u20ac\/loc<\/li><\/ul><p>We have a parish albergue too, Albergue Monasterio de la Magdalena, 100 beds\/10\u20ac\/bed.<\/p><p>As mentioned before, many pilgrims chose to start their pilgrimage from this point, because from here we have a little more than 100 kilometers to go until Santiago de Compostela. The minimum distance to be eligible for the Compostela is of 100 kilometers, therefore many will be starting from this point and the trail will become more crowded.\u00a0<\/p><p>Starting from Sarria, we will need to get two stamps per day. One from the albergue and the other could be taken from coffee shops or different landmarks.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"tab-pane elementkit-tab-pane elementor-repeater-item-9077dfd\" id=\"content-9077dfd69e00dda51b03\" role=\"tabpanel\"\n                         aria-labelledby=\"content-9077dfd69e00dda51b03-tab\">\n                        <div class=\"animated fadeIn\">\n                            <p style=\"text-align: left;\">Dear traveler,\u00a0<\/p><p>I woke up in the sound of birds chirping that are  carelessly jumping on the windowsill next to my bed.\u00a0<\/p><p>I try getting out of my sleeping bag to have a closer look but my legs feel very heavy.<\/p><p>I'll just sit for a little while then!<\/p><p>I feel like back when I went to the Muddy Volcanoes with my folks and I thought that it would be interesting to step into the mud that was flowing out of a volcano.

He writes his address on the corner of a map so we can write him a letter or visit him when we have some time.<\/p><p>My folks and them keep sharing stories throughout the evening, regardless of the time, the spoken language or where the Camino was started from.
