      Salash reacted to Anniesantiago's post in the thread Manjarin: Tomás Martinez de Paz, the last templar with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
      In case anyone would like to see it. I thought it was a great photo of him and it was such a great night. I had stayed there back in 2006 and a young man showed up at dinner time in raggedy clothes and barefoot and was not speaking at all...

      Everybody who has walked the Camino Francés knows the albergue in Manjarin. An albergue for six pilgrims, without water and electricity, but full of hospitality. Tomás Martinez de Paz started this albergue in 1993 in an old, abandoned school in...

      To set up requires a time frame prior to departing your home country, maybe too late to implement if already away. A typical currency wallet charges upon converting from one currency to another, WISE is cost effective, I know from first hand...

      I now have a Wise card, and much prefer it to my Cash Passport. On my last Camino I only had a few hundred dollars on my CP/p in case of emergency. Can't remember why I went to use it, but found it was frozen. Emails back & forth, to no avail...

      Oh no. Is this a problem with Cash Passport. I also lost $AU120 and they refused to refund as they insisted I had authorised the transaction when it was clear that I hadn’t. There were many email exchanges I actually found that I couldn’t make...

      Cash almost always works. I use cash almost exclusively. The only time my DEBIT card comes out of my pocket is to get cash from an ATM, actually attached to a real bank. These are the most secure. I also maintain a separate bank account, with...

      I was ready for that. I put my credit cards in my digital wallet and used them. Then, using my e-cards in Europe too many times without physically putting them in the machine and entering the PIN triggered the fraud detection algorithm. They sent...

      I think we agree, Alex - it's language. That's what I mean when I use the word 'confidence.' A shorthand for self-confidence. In my book ego's never a good thing.

      Salash reacted to VNwalking's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
      An ego boost and a boost in confidence are two very different things. The Camino can do either depending on the person.

      Salash reacted to Roland49's post in the thread Pilgrimage - selfish? with Like Like.
      Having done the CF in 2019 and the CP in 2023 I can say that there are more and more people out there seeking an ego-boost or because it's a thing "someone should do". Both pilgrimages that I've done out of thankfulness and seeking myself while...
