You do know that every one of the Camino villages, towns, cities, hamlets, etc. ARE connected by drivable roads? You are not in Sahara or Gobi. You're not even on Inca Trail or AT. At very worst you are moving through some paths in the fields and...

The text is theoretically the same. Although, of course, some will be more or less up-to-date than others: - the print edition will be up to date as of when it was sent to the presses - the kindle edition will be up-to-date as of when it was...

Camino Joe 2021 reacted to Chenahusky's post in the thread Backpacks Check-in or carry-on with Like.
As I carry poles, I check my rucsack. I put my rain cover on backwards, so that it covers the straps and back. This makes them less likely to get snagged. I finish it with a nylon strap, with buckle around the middle, and a good label, with my...
