      A microfibre towel and small a thing of liquid washing detergent were casualties of my CF. After a combination of a couple of days of air drying and using what I was about to wash (minus the washing detergent of course) to dry myself we hit the...

      davejsy reacted to Anniesantiago's post in the thread Lost and found with Haha Haha.
      I lost my temper on my first Camino years ago. It was on the Meseta and I took my wooden walking stick - like those they sell all along The Way - and beat it on a boulder, as hard as I could! The danger thing REFUSED to break! I felt better...

      An aside, good portion of Koreans are Christians. Koreans walk the Camino de Santiago encouraged by "Korean Hostel in Spain," a TV variety show in Korea. Three pioneering Koreans decided to start an albergue to provide passing travellers a...

      As many of us know, over the last years the Camino has risen in popularity for South Koreans. I didn't know it had made it into their dramas, though! I was watching the Korean drama (Kdrama) Encounter last night, and spotted a map of the Camino...
