    Than you. What you suggest is what we are planning to do. A number of fellow pilgrims have suggested a similar option.

    Caminha to Tui link

    Thank you for your feedback. Based on this plus other comments I have decided to split the stage in 2 and will most definitely take provisions with me. Today's taxi is the equivalent of a donkey in medieval times.😁

    Men's grooming

    Yes, trimmers, razors, shaving soap etc. all weigh and add to my overall bag weight. Asking the question was to find out how others deal with this issue.

    Men's grooming

    How do pilgrims (male) manage their hair and beards while on their Camino? Carry a hair trimmer, razor etc. or use local barbers. I cannot grow a beard and need to keep my hair short for my skin type
