    Caminho Portugués de Lamego

    Hello! This is the Canadian lady just checking in from her last night before Santiago. The CPI is amazing. Difficult! Do not discount the warnings of others of the hilly terrain. Being from an hour away from the Canadian Rocky Mountains I didn't think it would be an issue. Hahahaha!! Mind...

    Toe caps and toe socks?

    I`ve never tried the gel toe caps, but I assume they might fit over the toe socks. My socks fit quite snug.

    Toe caps and toe socks?

    Hi there, I`m doing the toe socks, over socks and a pair of Salomon hiking shoes. My husband is a runner and I turned him on to the toe socks a few years back and bought myself some at the same time. I find that the Salomon`s give me enough toe room within. Here`s a link to them from my...

    Camino Interior - Portugal

    FWE! Thank you so much for your good wishes. GracethePilgrim walked the route last year about the same time that I'll be doing my journey and she sent me fantastic notes. I have also built in a couple of days grace so that I can rest up when I need to. :-) My biggest concern at the...

    Hi again all! Life changes have happened and I'm considering the possibility of moving my camino for 2016 from September to April/May starting in Viseu. Any advice?

    Pilgrim Etiquette - LIVE from the Camino

    Interesting to read this. I have yet to walk my Camino (Sept 2016), but fully intend to do as I do for my pets at home in my own neighborhood: Pick up after myself and, on occasion, those who forgot their bags or used up the last of their bags earlier in the walk (I have been caught a time or...

    Facilities on the Portuguese interior[ Lamego}

    Hi all! I'm about a year away from my Camino, but am in the process of pulling together a budget. Therefore, can anyone give advice on the potential costs of alburgues from Viseu through to SDC? Also a little bit about what they spent on food for the road would be most helpful. Thank you so...

    Thanks for the vote of confidence. Not a type A, but darned determined sometimes. The prep time is needed for physical, mental and financial. :-).

    Camino Interior - Portugal

    FWE, :) I gathered that my pack would NOT be stolen and thanks so much for the reassurance. (I'm generally a trusting person) Although I enjoyed the movie for the most part I am not really using 'The Way' as my inspiration. I did watch it after having already decided to do the walk, but my...

    Camino Interior - Portugal

    FWE, Thank you for the reassurance. I am a 40 something year old woman who camps alone (okay, the 18lb bichon schitzu is usually snoring with me) in the Canadian Rockies for a week on my own whenever I get the chance, so your comments have pretty much settled it for me. That and google...

    Camino Interior - Portugal

    Oh my!! The videos were inspiring. This is the vision I have in my head, so I am thinking of doing the interior route and since I'm not planning to head out for over a year I know my mind will flip flop many times. My main questions are the following: Is the interior route safe enough for...

    Before or after Camino

    Agreed. I think that I'll just want to get going on my walk. Afterwards I'd like to wind down and be able to share my experience with my husband without too many distractions though. So thank you wayfarer for your comments.

    Before or after Camino

    Thank you for asking the question Robyn. Because I'm in the initial stages of planning I hadn't considered the transition to a different pace. I was thinking of having my husband meet me at the end and then heading to the Azores for a week or so to enjoy his company and finish my journey with...
