What is a Reasonable Budget for the Camino?

[Maura Santangelo]

www.guiacaminodesantiago.com gives day day descriptions of the walk
together with maps, starts from Roncesvalles and assumes 29 days of
walking, it gives suggested donations and/or charges for Albergues
along the way.   There is also a page which will calculate about how
much you would spend for food, water etc, the amount as I recall, was
about 600 euros.  The site is in Spanish but very useful.
