  The Camino Planner As the click-clack of walking sticks fades here in Santiago, the tap-tap of my keyboard picks up with exciting changes planned for 2025. Earlier this summer, we published the complete content of the Wise Pilgrim guides here...

  Dianne B reacted to Aptrail's post in the thread Do l get up and start packing? 😂 with Like.
  
  I serve as a hospi every year. At Grañón during the summer we ask people to stay in bed until 6 out of consideration for others and the fact that the dorm is an open room with wood floors. Inevitably some get up early, wake others at 5:15 --...

  Dianne B reacted to trecile's post in the thread Verizon’s International Plan Debacle with Like.
  
  I've been using T-mobile for years, and it works wonderfully while I'm abroad - at a much lower price than Verizon or AT&T. In fact, unless I buy a high speed data package with them I pay no extra fees for unlimited data and texting to/from US...

  Dianne B reacted to wisepilgrim's post in the thread 2025 Albergue Trends with Like.
  
  The results are in from the annual autumn questionnaire I send to all the albergues, and they are not as radical as they were last year. Prices have increased, but not as frequently as they did from 2023 to 2024, when prices almost universally...

  Dianne B reacted to RJE's post in the thread LIVE from the Camino Wolf On Francés Today with Love - Red heart.
  
  This made for an exciting morning for me and a few pilgrims in the hills just before El Acebo today. A Spanish lady took charge and had us sit down…not sure that was the right course of action, but it calmed him down until he moved on. Nature...

  Dianne B reacted to peregrina2000's post in the thread Why was my post edited? with Like.
  
  Sorry to @MickMac and others who may be confused by this. What you describe is not what is happening. You and others write “alburgue” in the text. When I see it, I change it to “albergue” in the text of your message and edit your post...

  Dianne B reacted to peregrina2000's post in the thread Spanish stumbling stones with Like.
  
  Do you remember which town you were in, @Hom4? I love the way the forum helps us see things that we’ve passed by before without paying any attention. I’ve walked so many caminos, I’m sure I have gone by many without a second thought. Next...

  Dianne B reacted to trecile's post in the thread What would you tell a new pilgrim NOT to do ? with Like.
  
  Don't plan your schedule too tightly - allow yourself several days (I recommend 5 - 7 ) as a cushion. During a month or more of walking there are things that are bound to throw you off any planned schedule, such as illness, injury, or just a...
