MarkEveleigh replied to the thread The price of coffee in Spain and the perplexing economics of it.Many cafes make very little profit on their coffee. With very good café con leche sometimes still available for a euro that's not surprising. I'm a HUGE fan of fresh orange juice and try to have a glass each morning to fuel my hikes. Relatively... -

Like.
My two cents. I have walked on the CF in November and December on 3 occasions. Yes my pack is a heavier then walking earlier. Who are you going to listen to some other pilgrims or a fellow New Yorker ;) ;) 😊 😊 I have one long sleeve mid... -

Is November on the Frances considered autumn or winter? Right now, I have some very light merino long johns and silk long johns that I plan to take, as well as merino socks. All the other winter clothing I have is too bulky. What should I get?

Sure! Why not? I took days off in bigger cities a couple times and got stamps everywhere I could. I just loved the souvenirs they created. By the end of my walk I had 2 passports full of stamps, plus the Finisterre-Muxia passport! Have fun with...

Hi there! My pack (REI Trail 25L) completely packed is 11.2 lbs! (Doesn't have water in it yet but that is definitely something to consider). Wowwww... you get me 😊! These suggestions are so helpful, thank you! - Love the girly suggestions--will...
