  GaleW reacted to AlbertoCamino's post in the thread Improve the pilgrim experience with Like.

  GaleW replied to the thread Toilet tissue littering Camino Portugués.
  
  I agree! I saw the same on my recent walk. I brought the little bags used when one walks their dog. Very sanitary and easy to put away until one finds a proper disposal method.

  GaleW reacted to Jeff Crawley's post in the thread It was my birthday last week . . . and look what my daughter gave me! with Like.
  
  I don't know if you've come across this already but it is basically a watercolour travel journal along the Camino Frances by an artist called Joaquin Gonzalez Dorao. Every page brings to mind a day on the Camino in a way that photos, even ones...

  GaleW reacted to Cowboy99's post in the thread Mailing a parcel home with Like.
  
  Many months ago we mailed a parcel at Pamplona via Correos with excess baggage home to Canada. Unknowing we failed to have someone at home retrieve this item from the post office. We assumed it wold be held until our return. Not so. Canada Post...

  GaleW reacted to bullingtonce's post in the thread Portuguese Coastal Camino - First Camino with Like.
  
  Your positive attitude appears all through your musings; even the bedbug problem did not send you to the depths of madness. You exhibit well the true spirit of a Camino pilgrim although, for some of us on the forum, it took a lot for us to...

  At the beginning, I would like to mention that this is a description of my Camino I walked in early September 2024, from Porto to Santiago de Compostela. I'll start with the gear I had. The backpack was a 20-litre Decathlon backpack with a steel...

  GaleW reacted to Robo's post in the thread First time fears with Like.
  
  Hopefully someone will be along shortly who knows that route, with some tips… But do any of us get lost? Of course! Did we survive? Of course. You get better at navigation as you go…. Follow the arrows, follow other Pilgrims, ask people…...

  GaleW reacted to peregrina2000's post in the thread Scammed in Lisbon with Like.
  
  I am very embarrassed to write this, because this is the twentieth year I have come to Lisbon to teach a two-week course, but I was scammed today. Hopefully, my embarrassment will save someone else some cash! I got to the Lisbon airport and...

  GaleW reacted to Nathen's post in the thread Camino Portugués - lessons learned with Like.
  
  Thanks for bringing biofreeze and naproxen to my awareness, SunCity - I'd not heard of them. It is indeed a beautiful route, and in my experience, accommodations were sometimes not found on the litoral - I had to walk inland to the coastal...
