  Hola - @Rex - from what I have read here and elsewhere if you are actually "deported" then the ban on re-entry can be anything up to 5 years (or the validity of the current passport). Can't remember if the ban applies to all Schengen Countries or...

  I suggest you walk in Italy.... The Via Francigena Sud from Rome to Santa Maria de Lueca, about 850km, followed by the Via Francigena from the Italian border at St Bernads Pass ( depending on snow) or if not Aosta) to Rome, over 1000km. My...

  Correct... and said "visa runs" are not without their own risks. A nephew of mine who formerly taught English in a SE Asian country was doing these runs "as necessary" to keep his visa open (and keep his job) and he got caught. After he paid...

  I suggest breaking this up into TWO distinct segments, or less than 90 calendar days each. Work around the weather patterns. Perhaps you could do one segment in the early Spring, then the other in the Autumn? You can start earlier in the...

  I'm not so sure that approach really works in Schengen countries, it's 90 days in 180 day period, so if you hop over to London for, say two days, that only gives you the two extra days in a Schengen country. I think if you want to over stay the...

  Other than flagging up the existence of the article I don’t feel that I have any right, or qualification to offer a female advice on how to manage the issue of risk. Mrs HtD reminds me on a regular basis that my role is to carry things and not...

  Exactly. Found this chart and it is so appropiate.

  I read this with interest. As a Pilgrim Office volunteer, I have had to escort women to the Civil Guard offices in Santiago to report attempted assaults on the Camino on the way into Santiago. I can verify that the premise of the article is true...
