    insulin inquiry

    I just wrapped it with my towel and made sure it's in the middle of my pack. I walked mid-Sept to mid-Oct, started early everyday (5-6 am) and done by noon.

    insulin inquiry

    If an albergue has a refrigerator ask them if you can leave your frio overnight (expand the gel). I did this every 3 or 4 days and my insulins were ok for 30 days.

    Camino Frances in September - experiences

    I did it last year started mid-Sept and I find it quite pleasant, not too crowded until you hit Sarria. I start my day between 5-6 am and am done by noon as it still can get hot by mid-day. I was already out of SdC when the continuous downpour happened on the 3rd week of October.

    Which apps for family to track me

    Just to add, when I did the Frances for 30 days last year my 3 girls at home were assured with google services (gmail, drive, maps and photos). None of us in the family have SocMed.

    Which apps for family to track me

    Same here, google maps is one of the best location sharing for families. Just be sure you have unlimited data connection.

    Which should I take? Sleeping bag or liner?

    I would say a liner if you want to reduce your weight. I did CF last year mid-Sept to mid-Oct and in some albergue I didn't even use it, I used my quickdry towel instead.

    If there are too many pilgrims, what is a pilgrim to do?

    Over tourism is a hot topic nowadays in Europe, maybe soon we might see some sort of tax implementation of this in the main Camino routes 🤞.

    Partially unplugging from the world

    I kept my phone on all the time with data on but notifications off. I have a few apps active: whatsapp, gmail, gmaps and gphoto for my digital snaps.

    Finisterre or Muxia?

    I would say go to both if you have time, then decide in SdC which one to walk, taking the bus is also an option.

    Finding Camino Patches

    Why not order it directly from Ivar or visit his shop close to the cathedral? I ordered mine in advance and picked it up there. https://maps.app.goo.gl/dDjQ7vFmrVM3X8Sc7

    SJPDP-SDC in 32 days-is this realistic?

    It's definitely possible to walk the CF in 32 days without getting too exhausted or hurt, but listen to your body and adjust distances based on your health and fitness. This timeframe balances physical challenge with introspective reflection, it will offer you ample time for quiet contemplation...
