      Diet reacted to C clearly's post in the thread Help: 6 weeks to go with Like Like.
      Just to illustrate the uniqueness of each person's blisters, I do not like merino wool socks for long walks, although I wear them most days at home. They are softer and move on my foot, sometimes causing blisters. I prefer a thin, fairly tight...

      Personally if she has terrible blisters as stated I would have them professionally treated and then deal with the cause of the problem. 1/Poorly fitting shoes? 2) Shoes too tight ( the same as 1 really). 3/ Bad shoe /sock combination? 4/...

      Diet reacted to KeyserSoza's post in the thread Osprey Rucksack Belt Pocket Zips with Like Like.
      Like a huge number of pilgrims I have an Osprey rucksack (EXOS 38), which is one of the best packs I’ve had over 40 years hiking. However, is it me, or a design fault that re-zipping the belt pockets closed while wearing the pack almost always...

      Don't know where you are from, but QOL from region to region in Spain and US regions vary widely in both. Communities on the various Caminos may benefit from pilgrim spending.

      My 2 cents: Walking without plan is probably the best choice. However, if you come from Kyiv, perhaps the costs of accommodations and food in France will be high... from another hand, the main Camino in Spain (Camino Frances) seems to be...

      Hi everyone. My name is Nika. I plan to take my backpack, and go on Camino in the end of the next week. I still don’t know how will I get from Kyiv to France. And what city should I come to… I feel like I just want to run away and spend some...
