  OZAJ replied to the thread Hospedería de San Martín Pinaro.
  
  The last time I stayed there I emailed and got some of the days I wanted and booked them. On arrival in SdC I went to reception and got the other days I wanted except the first.

  OZAJ replied to the thread Do you set an “intention” for your Camino?.
  
  I agree. Being open to what happens. Seeing things and opportunities you might not normally notice. Being aware of assistance from Mushkil Gusha, the remover of difficulties. The universe is large and you are small, but you ARE an integral part...

  OZAJ replied to the thread Are Bed Bugs An Issue? How Do I Avoid Them.
  
  I am bug ice cream. I have been bitten in Cairo, Syria, on the Voie de Vezelay, the Frances and twice in Sdc, however most of my caminos have been bug-free. I do nothing to dissuade them, relying (ha ha) on luck.

  OZAJ replied to the thread Worth their weight in gold or 'don't bother' ?.
  
  I used a bladder once. The lid broke. I use half litre bottles distributed in my pack where they remain remarkably cool. Usually 2 litres. Some say that storing the bottles inside the pack is a problem: you have to take the pack off to access...

  OZAJ reacted to trecile's post in the thread First time in Camino and will be traveling solo. with Like.
  
  It's easy to find out the costs by going to the providers' websites. But the majority of forum members and pilgrims on the Camino arrange it themselves and save a lot of money in the process. Plus you can customize the Camino for your ability...
