Martin-B reacted to peregrina2000's post in the thread Sexual harassment on Camino routes with
Like.
I think that there is a huge disconnect between those who focus on this issue primarily as one of a woman’s right to be free from harassment and those who see it as an issue of how to best cope with the fact that whether we like it or not women... -
Martin-B replied to the thread Which footwear in April.Altra Olympus or Hoka speedgoat, with waterproof socks when absolutely necessary, although it's rare for me to worry about wet feet the waterproof socks are more about warmth when the waters particularly cold.

Martin-B replied to the thread Worth their weight in gold or 'don't bother' ?.Another vote for bottles, just the ones you buy the water in, easily refillable, recyclable when you've finished.

Martin-B replied to the thread Fake Pilgrim fraudster in Gironde, France.In balance it's not necessarily the worlds getting worse, there are far more people on the Camino these days so by definition there will be more dubious characters, simple mathematics. Though I'm often heard to say the worlds getting worse 🤬....
