Hi,
I'm writing on my blogposts from the Camino and when I'm done with all days I'll write a summary post with stuff people have asked me like:
  • Why did you do it
  • What was the best
  • What was the worst
  • How much money did you spend
  • How far did you walk in average every day
  • How did you take care of your feets
  • How did you pack look like, did you lack something, did you send anything home

But what else, what could be useful to answer in a blogpost for coming caminoers? Or is there something you want to ask me?

The blogpost will be about how I did, how I felt and so on so it will not be any kind of how to more a summary of how it can be on a camino.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
You could add something like if you had any moments of doubt ( OMG what am I doing here?), moments of sheer happiness, people who you met that impressed you the most. And above all about the feeling deep inside you that the Camino has left that will always be there. These are just a few.

Buen Camino!

Perfect. I add those to the list. The post will be written as soon I'm done with the daily notes. I'm on day 14 of 33 now so I'm reliving going into León at the moment :-)
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
I suppose you´ll get more ideas as the days go by and more members of the forum read your post.

Buen Camino!
 
Beatrice, I think that one thing that would be very helpful (to me at least) would be a listing of your stages. Mundicamino, Eroski, the Brierley guide, and most of the people walking who post on this forum tend to stay in the 20-27 kms a day stages. You broke out of that mold, and I think that for people who walk longer distances, it would be interesting to see the actual stages you walked. Thanks, Laurie
 
Yes the stages will be summed up in the post. Even if they are shown in all the daily posts. I'll post them here as well.

I had a malfunction of my gps-watch between Virgen de la Camino and Samos. Hoped to show profiles for all stages as dell bit that part will be missing.
