Day 33 – The one with going home

Either the dinner yesterday after the sunset was a bit too much or it was some excitement about getting home soon but I spent most of the night awake.

Around 6 I started to get ready as the bus left at 6:45.

My phone once again started being weird with the data connection not working and with flickering screen but it fixed itself shortly after the bus arrived to Santiago.

The bus took more than 2 hours and it was quite cold. On arrival it was only 4 degrees in Santiago.

I talked with a Lithuanian guy who did the French way. He just started a year long break with the Camino and planned to travel to East.

I wondered around Santiago looking for souvenirs and eating this and that 🙂 Finally I settled on the square next to the cathedral where the sun shined and one could see all the pilgrims arriving and meeting each other. In fact I met with la German guy who I last saw at least a week ago.

An Estonian girl asked me to take take her picture and as she was just going to go to Finisterra and Muxia I recommended her some places and helped her with the bus schedule.

After bumping into the Lithuanian guy again I went on to have lunch: I set my eyes on the market with some kiosks offering meals when I first got to Santiago so now I tried one of them. One with octopus.

I sat a little more in the sunshine then headed to the airport with the bus. Time to go home.
