I’ve just bought in Galicia and I’ll give you one piece of advice. The price listed is generally quite a bit higher than what they expect. Go in at a price you think is a steal and it’s very likely you’ll both be happy. Also, if you go through...
Hi all - I have often wondered about the whole cutting grams, going as light as .. (I do it too!!) .. thinking about the "real" world with soldiers on the march and what they carry .. Roman legions ...
now I have discovered Clara Wilkes - and...
There are very few forum members who actually applied and obtained a visa for Spain or France for more than 3 months. I had a closer look at the application forms for both countries and also at the posts of the one forum member who got such a...

What to do?
Swallow it.
Forget it.
Move on.
Life is hard enough without bearing grudges.
Hug a tree.
Sing to the...
On very rare occasions I have experienced less-than-pleasant behaviour, but I do not think it will be right to name any albergue on this forum. Hospitaler@s come and go. In +15 years on various Caminos, I can remember only 2 incidents where it...
Thank you dear Pilgrims for your many kind and loving thoughts and messages. They bring great comfort. I will impart them to all who loved Michael here in the community Findhorn, Scotland, where he lived. At the time of his cremation that will...
