And also thanks for the reminder about the time zone change.
I had been in this area once before but it was 2006 and not Vigo (more like Tui and Pntevedra), and also a long time before Covid.
Looking forward to venturing to Europe once more!

Currently CP (Portugese railways) promotes the route from Porto to Santiago de Compostella with ticket fares starting at 10,30 EUR.
