      The difference in weight among my Osprey Stratos 44L and my wife's Sirrus 26L is 470g (1670 vs. 1200 g). I guess the 33L is halfway (+250 or so). To be honest I don't even feel the difference when I use her backpack (as I do time by time). And I...

      Looks like a good list. Nit picking..........but 2 t shirts 1 shirt for evenings Can you make do with 2 shirts, exactly the same? Wear one wash one. Your clean one is your evening shirt, and walking shirt next day. Same thing with the shorts...

      Practice at home washing out a shirt in the sink. Find out for yourself which type of soap work best for you. Note the different drying time of clothing items made of different materials. Avoid cotton clothes which take the longest to dry...

      I could write pages about all the kindnesses done me on the Caminos by local people and all the delicious fruit given me. But here's just a few: Jusspassinthru, on your same Camino Arles/Aragones/Frances last October, my son in law and I walked...

      Hiking 20 km up to the 1060 meter Ibaneta pass via the Valcarlos route to Roncesvalles the first time in September 2004 at 65 was one of the most difficult days on the Camino and certainly the most physically exhausting day of my adult life then...

      Sorry, no. What in the world is wrong with people telling stories about how kind we humans can be? Virtue signaling? Hardly. Merely people's genuine experience. (You needn't read the thread if it annoys you.) Nope. I'm going to gleefully annoy...

      arfajajc reacted to Walkalong's post in the thread Random Acts of Kindness with Like Like.
      Most people walking the early stages tend to look out for one another, but there are examples that stand out. The recipients really appreciated the guy who, as he walked, repaired trekking sticks from parts he found in Albergue waste bins. The...

      If you want to avoid tales of kindness here, it isn't hard to. The thread isn't exactly hiding what it is. It's right there in the title. Just skip by and don't open it. If others want to share stories of kindness they've received on the Camino...
