    What have I done? I just made a point of no return decision!

    Hej Alexwalker, fellow nordbo! I did the Camino Frances 2006, in may-june, and I just want to tell you how I did. I went to Barcelona like you (I was there for five days and watched the F1-race at Circuit de Catalunya). I had ordered traintickets on the Internet, one from Barcelona to Irun...

    trekking poles

    I just put my collapsible poles in the rucksack, a 50 l. The handles was sticking out, but when I checked-in the sack at the airport (both in Sweden and in Spain) noone made any remarks. All went well. Buen Camino

    On my way

    Well, now I am in Barcelona and tonight I will go by train to Irun/Hendaya and then on to SJPP to start my Camino. Butterflies flying in my stomach, but I feel confident that I will at least not die on the road. If I am strong enough to walk all the way, that I do not know, but I will at...

    safe to travel alone for female?

    Women! If you are walking alone, get a whistle. No women alone should be without one, even in their own hometown. Works both as getting help and to scare the villains away. Zeke, male with a whistle

    Post from relatives?

    Many thanks Ivar and to all who have been helping me so far. I knew I read about the Lista de Correos somewhere, but right now my head seems a bit too small for my thoughts and worries. Camino Frances here I come! Zeke

    Post from relatives?

    Well, tomorrow I am off to Barcelona for a long weekend and on the 17 May I leave SJPP on foot, if all goes as planned. But before I go there is one more thing (oh, I have hundreds of questions but now I am beginning to feel somewhat "que sera, sera") I have read somewhere how to get mail in...

    From Roncesvalles to Compostela.

    Thank you! I will start my first Camino in SJPP 16 May and I feel pretty nervous right now. Reading your words was as balm on my nerves. Buen Camino

    Easiest way to the airport.

    In my eager to arrive home as early as possible after my Camino, I have booked a flight early in the morning (0700) from Santiago airport. Foolishly I booked it before checking the bus-schedule. Now I see that it is to early for any buses and a taxi is to expensive, I think. So, how do I get to...

    Bathrooms

    Ah, finally someone posting a very important question. Have been thinking much about it myself, but not had the nerve to start a topic. But the answers is much about "no 1", if I am not mistaken. What about "no 2"? The same? Behind a bush or?

    Pamplona hotel?

    peregrina2000 Is it possible to book a room at Hostal Bearan in advance and preferably via internet? I have searched but I can not find it. I think it is a bit easier via the web than by telephone, as I do not speak spanish.
