  lsg replied to the thread Can I Walk the Camino Without a Smartphone?.
  
  You could but I wouldn't recommend it. How else can you comment on this forum while walking if you don't have a smart phone? Factious comments aside, I'm walking now and the smartphone has been really useful when booking accommodation. Sept...

  Hi Michele! Great to hear that you're giving solo travel a try. It will be a different experience for sure. I'm 30, female and currently walking the Camino solo. I'm from Singapore and have 0 Spanish. I use Google translate liberally. There's...

  Hi all. I have been pulled to walk the Camino for over a decade. I didn’t think it was possible because 40+ days away from my family/work isn’t feasible. Then I found out people do walk sections of it, so I’m walking from Sarria starting...

  Writing this from Villatuerta on the Camino Frances. Mid-afternoon might be a bit too late to stop. It hit 31 degrees c at 12pm yesterday and got hotter from there. I saw someone sick with minor heatstroke at my albergue as she was still out...

  Writing this while sitting at a cafe in Villatuerta. I'm on the Camino Frances now. You didn't specify if your glasses have transition lenses. If they don't, you'll need to bring both sunglasses and a normal pair of glasses and you'll definitely...

  My wife suffers of LORFOP*. The symptoms are similar: when she hear loud people not caring about others she get really stressed. We will avoid walking the most popular caminos in summer... *Lack Of Respect From Other People

  Writing this from Larrasoaña. Stayed at the albergue in Roncesvalles last night. There were so many people chatting away that I had to wear both the earplugs and the headphones to go to sleep. Would rather not do that again.

  lsg replied to the thread Do I really need a hat?.
  
  I've finally got a definitive answer - bring both. Walked from Roncesvalles to Larrasoaña today. Got to the albergue at 2.30pm and the umbrella was really helpful for all the hot exposed stretches after Zubiri. Even got the thumbs up from a...

  Buen Camino How exciting. It's a year since I was there so very poignant for me. I hope you have a pleasant crossing of the mountain with great views. Be friendly, some of these people you'll never see again and some you might always stay friends...
