- VikingWarrior reacted to CTLawGal's post in the thread Splitting bills with fellow pilgrims with Love - Red heart.
  
  I like this and will remember! I didn't experience any payment "issues" on my Camino, but I think no one likes a "free loader" - it feels like a violation of trust and that's not a good feeling. But it's not always easy to tell if that's the...
