    I agree the Camino is not for everyone. I agree we need to be supportive when someone decides that the Camino is not for them. I was able to demonstrate this earlier this year, when walking on Camino with my daughter and she was afraid of...

    It's always hard to assess how important something is to someone else. You have liquid soap and bar soap...do you need both? Could you have a digital version of the Bible on your phone? Even a Kindle would be lighter than your copy. You have...

    Avoid the standard stages mentioned in almost every guidebook. Walk longer or shorter days! I was happy with my CF in 2019 and avoided the standard-stops almost at all. Pamplona, Burgos and Sarria were unavoidable for me, but I tried to get off...

    Hi @lsg, welcome to the forum and thanks for starting this thread. Re. the suggestion that the Camino might not be for you: I bet you've heard a version of this advice for many other areas of your life. Hopefully (like me) you find that attitude...
