      Sweething reacted to J Willhaus's post in the thread Backpack or just a bag with Like Like.
      Are you staying in albergues or private rooms? In a private room, you will likely have the space for two bags or a backpack and a suitcase. In an albergue you will be dealing with less space. I would not use a suitcase for daily transfer to...

      I highly recommend listening to this, https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001z69m it has a section quite early on about phone theft and what you can and should do. Basically set your screen lock to 30 seconds, set up the security features...

      On the basis of one unfortunate experience in fog on the summit of a munro in the 80’s, whenever I stop for a break I try to leave my walking poles pointing in the direction I’m intending to continue. The easiest wrong direction to head is 180...

      Good advice given so far. Also take into account that when you have an injury that makes you adapt the way you walk, this compensation is likely to cause further injuries, often on the other side of the body. Once you start noticing you 'walk...
