    I also struggle with crowds and noise. No formal diagnosis but it is a real issue for me. I would aim for the smaller "in between" villages rather than the Camino hotspots like Pamplona or Logroño. Consider smaller albergues - often private ones...

    Adaptability will help. I echo comments about later in the shoulder seasons. I’m aiming for mid October start, and mid March. You could add the Villar de Mazarife variant from Leon, rather than walking along a very busy road all day. I’ve...

    Quick review of the Loop Quiet earplugs: I find them comfortable enough to wear during the day while working / walking around but not at night. I'm a side sleeper and it's uncomfortable having the stiff silicon earplugs press into your ear the...

    I walked the Portuguese in May into June this year. I never wear hats and did not bring one. Fortunately I was walking with friends, many of who brought 2-3 hats. The first few days of the Camino, I noticed my eyes were irritated and very red...
