    Sirage replied to the thread Food on less traveled Caminos.
    I am not trying to sell anything to anyone. I was presenting some information that others may or may not find useful or fits with their beliefs about food. You could give it is some more thought and look for other sources of information, or...

    I would presume that if your tap water is not potable you should make it potable.

    No, I did not. I respect rules - usually. If the sheet is correctly put on over the mattress, and you have your own liner or sleeping bag, what is the problem? Coherency is such a difficulty today - in actual speech, as well as in practice, on...

    No, I try to follow the rules/ arrangements of the country / albergue where I am a guest. So I take the disposable sheets yes. Can you provide us details that these sheets come from the Eucalyptus? Even if this is so then I would still take...

    Some more data about less-frequented routes. Last year I conducted a food experiment. I walked the Mozarabe (620 km. It was a busy day if I saw more than a few other pilgrims, often none) then onto the Via de La Plata, and then the Sanabres...

    There are some pilgrims (actually quite a few) who do not carry any food with them on the Camino, only enough liquids to drink - because they have fat tissue under their skin. If you are even slightly overweight, walking the longest distance on...

    That is debatable, and not established science. There are many people who don't crash if they don't eat sugar. Possibly if your normal diet has a lot of sugar you probably will need to keeping eating more. However if your normal diet has...
