      I've been using an app called Viber for years to make phone calls to landlines and other numbers that don't have WhatsApp while I'm in Europe. I bought $5 worth of credits a couple of years ago, and still have much of it left...

      Yes you are right, but I hadn't prepared and was stuck in the moment and had to resort to my AT&T line. Truthfully at the time I thought I was just using my cellular AT&T for the one call but I turned the whole line on which triggered the day use...

      I think what used a lot of my data allocation with Airalo in Italy last summer was using turn by turn navigation in the car. This wouldn't be the case on the camino. Another thing that made me spend more was that a couple of times I needed to...

      I also tried Airalo last summer in Italy and also had to top up, making it less inexpensive than I expected. I haven't tried Holafly yet but I too will try it this summer on the CF.

      No slip issues for me. Not as aggressive as the Speedboat but plenty of grip for a summer Camino.

      I really love my Topo Ultraventure 3s for my local hikes. I was torn on what to bring on a recent short Camino (Vasco) and ended up going with my Hoka Challengers because they are waterproof and rain was forecast everyday. I regretted it after...

      I have found some Hoka models to have very restrictive toe-boxes and other Hoka models to be more spacious. They should be tried on for fit. Though Hoka online site has a good return policy too.

      No its not. I also prefer zero-drop (I wear Altras as my daily sneaker), but 5mm is still very minimal. That's what my Asics Trabuco Max2 have and I have been able to adapt seamlessly.

      The Topo Athletic ULTRAVENTURE 3 is the comparable plush trail shoe to the Olympus 5. It also has the best in class Vibram full outsole as opposed to the Olympus somewhat problematic Vibram inserts glued onto the midsole. I haven't tried this...
