Question of how much water to carry is an individual thing, as you can see from all of the above posts. More you carry, less refilling you need to do along the way. I reckon you find out after couple of days what works for you. It might not work for others, but that does not matter. There were...
Thank you for your replies.
My second pair of shoes weighs only 770 g or 1lb and 11 ounces.
It is pretty 'airy'.
I weighed all my gear today and ended up with 9kg. (7.5 kg of normal gear plus 1.5 kg of the gear to celebrate mass daily on the road).

Buen Camino

I would assume that they get quite...
G'day Ron,
I am starting my Camino on the 5th of June and keep asking the same question: sleeping bag or just a liner? At this stage I am leaning towards a liner and a pair of thermals.
Buen Camino
Thanks Zammy. Will check it out.
Thanks Sharni. Unfortunatelly I cannot make it tomorrow, but let me know if you meet again. Is this a regular catch up or just one of?
G'day fellow pilgrims,
Finally, after a year and a half of thinking and deciding about the options it is locked in.
I am flying in from Brisbane to Paris and I am starting my Camino from SJPdP on the 7th of June. I am planning to get into SJPdP day before, to get orientated.
Is there a way...
