    Alert Fires in Portugal

    Thanks for the update.

    Busing out of Leon but to where?

    I bused to the vegan yoga alburgue in Hospital and I'm glad I did. The walk is ugly and you don't have to do it if you don't want to. 😉

    I’m sick and have to leave—help with Madrid Hotel?

    How are you doing now? I hope better. ❤️💕

    Change of route: Pamplona to Logrono, from original SJPDP to Pamplona

    That's a very ambitious plan. It took me almost three hours to get through Charles de G airport a week ago FYI. Paris and Bordeaux are lovely cities. Both raining right now. I would not not not climb the mountain the day after landing and such a rushed trip, my two cents. I did it before and I'm...

    Change of route: Pamplona to Logrono, from original SJPDP to Pamplona

    Yes! The Sjpp to Pamplona section is hard. Plus it's raining. Skip it for a four day Camino and do a different section. I'm in Paris now and it's pouring rain and will be rainy for days. Your revised plan is much better- easier terrain, Pamplona is a great city, do a flatter section to start...

    Alert Fires in Portugal

    I'm so sorry. I'm in Paris and it's pouring rain and will be for days. The weather is nuts. Good to stay away from wild fire smoke and have an n 95 just in case. Is anyone smelling the smoke near Santiago or Galicia? If so, please comment. Thanks all.

    Walking in Rain

    Good advice, but I live in the desert. 😊

    Walking in Rain

    I hear you and I could not find that. The light rain jackets were so light they seemed like they would not do anything. If only there were perfect Camino clothes. We need to open a returned pilgrim store that has all the best gear! REI has been a bit disappointing this Camino. On the other hand...

    Walking in Rain

    I have a similar question ❓ thanks for asking it Frank. I'm walking in October. I'm debating poncho vs pack cover. I bought a lined REI rain jacket that opens in the arm pit area. I've never owned a rain jacket before. I always just avoid the rain, so this is really stretching my comfort zone...

    Food glorious Food

    As a vegan, the best food for my diet was between Sarria and Santiago, where far more vegan options abound. Also for those walking the Portuguese, Lisbon and Porto have such amazing vegan food and great coffee that if I stayed there any longer, I would have needed to buy bigger clothes!

    Walk the Camino, while working remotely?

    I very nearly walked this fall while enrolled in college full time. I'm honestly super bummed to have dropped my classes, but I was afraid of getting my laptop wet and also the extra weight of carrying a laptop plus four notebooks and a Kindle for all my reading books. As far as connectivity...

    56 y/o, traveling alone & so nervous

    You can do it! How cool that you feel pulled to do it and now you are almost embarking on this long awaited journey. There are so many services after Sarria that you will find everything you need available to you. Have fun and enjoy the journey.

    Pads for ball of foot 👣

    I hear your concern but these things are totally unrelated for the vast majority of people. I have insurance here and abroad. I just can't see a specialist cause that's our system in the US. But major inquiries are covered. Again, that's where the US system shines. Paying $500 to have a corn...

    Pads for ball of foot 👣

    Thank you. I saw the foot doc and had one of three corns removed, the biggest and deepest one. I was too much of a baby to do them all... Man that hurt! But I'm walking with so much ease now. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🥾👍🏼

    Sharing Camino Art Project

    Here's the astrology podcast where I heard about it... https://pca.st/episode/c7cf0535-d316-40e9-802c-9d7dd46f24e3 And Kari Gale talking about making art as a way of slowing down on the Camino... https://pca.st/episode/4126f6a1-d3e6-4a87-b169-6841b62d11d7 Or this one...

    Sharing Camino Art Project

    Hello 🤗 I have been interested in doing an art project along the Camino since hearing a podcast on Zero to Travel with Kari Gale. She did a series of little watercolors when she walked with her sister, who was a slower walker than the 6' Kari. I thought this was a lovely idea, but I've never...

    Do you walk there from Ponferrada and skip staying in Villafranca del Bierzo?
