Which camino should I choose?

Hi everyone!

I'm a 26-year-old woman from Portugal, and I'll be free for the whole month of August. I'd really like to spend that time walking a Camino, but I don't want to plan everything in detail beforehand. I like the idea of being flexible and deciding things as I go.

I walked the Portuguese Central Camino in 2018, and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. This time, I'd love to try a different route. I've already ruled out the Portuguese Coastal Camino since I live nearby and have already walked parts of it.

My biggest concern is that I'll be walking alone. I'm completely fine with solo travel, but one of my favourite memories from my first Camino was meeting other pilgrims and forming little groups along the way. I'd really love to have that experience again.

Since I live in Portugal, getting to the starting point isn't an issue.

Which Camino would you recommend, especially for August and for a solo female? I'd love to hear your experiences and any advice you might have.

Thank you!

Should I buy a new camera or a len?

Hi guys,
I’ve always enjoyed photography since I was a teen. Back then I purchased a Nikon D3200. I used it for a long time but recently I stopped taking it to trips because it was heavy and took up a lot of space.
Recently my dad gave me is Nikon film camera and I’m obcessed with it. I take it on my trips and photography all the important and good moments of my life. However film has two biggest flaws for me: it’s expensive and when I’m on trips I have to manage the amount of photos I can take.
So I started to look for some options and found that there are some cameras that have pre-build film functions (like Fujifilm X-M3) but I can also achive this with a len.
So this leads me to my question, should I buy a new camera or should I just buy a new len since I already have a camera.

Budget: €300 (for len) - 800€/900€ (for camera)

Country: Portugal

Condition: New or used

Type of Camera: something that look like film

Intended use: Photography (meanly travel)

End use: personal use, travel photo

If photography: travel photo (landscape, nature, family and friends)

If video what style: not important

What features do you absolutely need: Good quality photo

What features would be nice to have: portable, film effect

Portability: How portable does it need to be? important feature

Cameras you're considering: I don’t really know :(

Cameras you already have: Nikon D3200, Nikon Film Camera

Notes: I’m not a pro, just like to do it for hobby

Thank you very much!
