    Eckart.S reacted to CWBuff's post in the thread Most common way to pay the albergue with Like Like.
    What @trecile said. I've made no secret that i am a heavy CC user. So as such I paid for most of my lodgings with a credit card. Some I "prepaid" couple of days ahead when I made a reservation (mostly via WhatsApp) some i paid on the spot when i...

    Eckart.S reacted to henrythedog's post in the thread Camino by skateboard? with Like Like.
    I started out right at the top of the thread vaguely suggesting that it was a pretty silly idea, but if the lad wanted to carry his board most of the way, why not? 69 posts later I’m now firmly on his side and look forward to reports of him...

    Eckart.S reacted to falconbrother's post in the thread Home from the Camino with Like Like.
    I'm on day three back at work from walking the Camino Frances. I feel a bit homesick. I could have lived that life indefinitely I think. I wasn't ready for it to be over, when it was over. My wife said it best: "The Camino is what the...

    Eckart.S reacted to Jeff Crawley's post in the thread Tinned fish talk! with Like Like.
