We are Arno and Carola, the dutch owners of Albergue Juntos. When we ourselves were walking the Camino Francés we were inspired by the nice atmosphere, the vibe of making new friends from all over the world and all the initiatives along the Way. We still remember this nice oasis with hammocks and donativo drinks we came across. However there were also some things that we missed. First, we really missed vegetables (other than the usual mixed salad) and soups. Also we hardly found pancakes, which – as we knew from our walks in The Netherlands – make a great lunch and keeps you going for many kilometers more. And finally we missed vegetarian and vegan food. We don’t mean food where the meat or fish is simply removed from the plate, but real vegetarian and well spiced food. That is the reason that in our Bar-Albergue, there is always a vegetarian soup available, you can eat our famous dutch pancakes and we always have a vegetarian option in our communal dinner at 19.00 hrs. You can even have pancakes for breakfast! Many of our guests have told us how they enjoyed the family atmosphere at our Albergue, like a home away from home. We speak Dutch (of course), Flemish, English, German, French and a bit of Spanish.
