Well that is pretty sad - sorry to hear that. I had to come home early last month as my old knee trauma flared badly again - can't do it any more so that was my last walking Camino (will return to do first aid with my car in future).
All depends...
I wouldn't bother with those extra layers. It's quite easy to put on an Altus without stopping. If rain is in the forecast drape the Altus over your backpack and tuck the sleeves into your backpack straps. You may want to tie the sleeves...
Hi all! So basically what the title says. I'm 16, I have a month off once my summer exams finish, and I just have a pull to get away from life and do something a little crazy. Not sure how to explain it. But I love the outdoors, and I think it'd...

I met two 16 year olds on the CF, twin boys, who were managing just fine, and, separately, a 16 year old girl. (Although an older woman, 20s, took her under her wing.) I went to Paris on my own when I was 15, though just for the weekend. Hitched...
Let me suggest that you check out the app Mapy.cz. The Camino is marked with a blue line. As you enlarge the map at any given point, you will see the hotels, hostels, and albergues in that area. You can then click on the bed symbol to get...
Let's say an American buys a large expensive pickup truck on credit and then has to buy lots of gas and pay high insurance premiums. And then the truck crashes into a small car causing severe injuries to its occupants and high medical costs. All...
really - religion? WOW! I honestly do not recall any time (simple "holiday greetings"-type ones not counting) when a religious ad was on TV. Interesting.....
While I absolutely do not disagree about the crime-related rate, IMHO in the context...
