Like.
Another Aussie. 76, wife is 70. Camino every year since 2012, except for Covid. It's a lifestyle. Can't be replicated in Australia much as we love the place. Where can you wander for 30 or 40 or 50 days straight in Australia, and stay at... -

Kanga replied to the thread Walks in Spain or Pilgrim.es????.I’m with Flog and Robo. I don’t do any planning if walking the Camino Francés. Catch a bus or train to where i intend to start walking, and walk. No need to book anything, let alone a company organise it.

Kanga reacted to Camino Chrissy's post in the thread Is there really a waterproof solution with Like.
@Kanga, so nice to see you on the forum today. Welcome back! BTW, that is a very interesting piece of rain gear and looks like it possibly glows in the dark.😅

Kanga replied to the thread Is there really a waterproof solution.A perennial question. I’ve just changed my avatar to reflect my latest wet weather gear.
