  If I end my life on the Camino, I will at least have left this life while doing something spectacular and close to my heart. Much preferred to a lonely deteriorated life in a nursing home. Not bad. JMHO and my 0.02 €. Other than that, I am of...

- David L reacted to GaTeach's post in the thread Splitting bills with fellow pilgrims with Like.
  
  I consider it an honor to shade the paths of others any chance I get! Never ever ever want to sit at a table where people are splitting checks. Ewwwww.

- David L reacted to Telelama's post in the thread Splitting bills with fellow pilgrims with Like.
  
  Honestly, I just pay it and move on. I am older and make good money, and I know so many are on limited budgets. We almost always pay for meals and drinks for our fellow pilgrims that are in their twenties, sometimes 30s, because I know they...

  Ok, here's something and it's hard not to be judgemental, I dont want to be.. but this is as good a place as any to post it: Arriving into Santiago Airport on the afternoon flight a few weeks ago. I stood waiting for nearly an hour in vain at...

  Did my 5th CF this past June. After the first two (2016 & 2018), I felt like that was enough. Then a few years later in 2021 I thought well maybe one more in 2022. When I got back from that one, I thought that's it--that's plenty for me. But...

- David L reacted to JustJack's post in the thread Camino Frances calls more strongly than the other caminos with Like.
  
  Perhaps it’s inherent laziness, or perhaps it’s because I live in the mountains. But caminos that are constantly up and down don’t excite me as much. I don’t mind some up and down. And the occasional big up and down, such as you get on the CF...

- David L reacted to dougfitz's post in the thread Food on La Meseta beyond abysmal with Like.
  
  I presume you are talking about the Meseta here in this. If it was evident to you that you weren't getting sufficient, well balanced meals from albergues and other places you stayed, what did you do in response? There is no promise, on the...

  My Name is Rob. I'm a CaminoHolic. My last Camino was over a year ago, and I've already planned my next three! Why? I'm not sure I'll ever really know. Welcome to the Club......... :oops: Now let's talk about shoes, and packs, and poles...

- David L reacted to KLM72's post in the thread Reluctant pilgrim returns with Haha.
  
  When I ended my first camino in Leon due to illness in 2022, I came to peace with it and decided it WAS my full camino and I was also certain I was one and done. I told everyone exactly that- I had no need to ever do another camino. Never needed...
