    I use waterproof socks with my hiking sandals, and they work great. My feet haven't gotten overly sweaty in them. I bought a new to me brand this year called Dry Mile. They are less bulky than my Sealskinz waterproof socks. https://drymile.com

    Sounds hot and sweaty to me. Like walking in rain gear. It will be interesting to hear how it works out.

    Thanks a lot for every single answer in this thread, very helpful 👍🙏. I am now awaiting the missing 2 packs, the Rab is definitely going back, it feels not right somehow. Should the Montane or the Gregory not fit, I will then move on and order a...

    I can relate to so many observations you had. It is challenging to incorporate the "living in the now" back home. When on the path, you get to spend SO much time surrounded by incredible vistas, nature, birdsong and gurgling streams and brooks...

    What you experienced and are currently experiencing is not uncommon. What you and your wife are trying to figure out how to implement in your life, I did my version of 7 years ago. For me, I was reminded to be mindful, live in this moment. If...

    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...

    I use the Monzo card, it does exactly the same as a Revolut card. I use Monzo exclusively while I'm abroad (to avoid bank charges) I cant see any problems with you using a Revolut card as long as there are funds in the account Always, always...

    I want to amplify what @t2andreo said, a properly fitted pack should really be part of you. It shouldn’t sway when you walk. It shouldn’t bounce up and down. If you spun around quickly, it should move with you without delay. 60% of the weight...

    I carried a women's Osprey Sirrus 36 last year from St. Jean. I went directly to a store and had it fitted. I measured for a small which is the length where it should fall on your hip area. Very comfortable. Certain brands carry a women's fit pack.

    💯%. If everything fits in, and you can afford it, nothing else matters. Whilst I personally have a Dueter, I tried at least half a dozen other brands and simply chose that because it was the most comfortable for me.
