    Any credit cards?

    I am curious if you can use any type of credit card. I will have cash and use cash machines, but I know there are some places that do take credit cards. Do they have to be a certain type? Like with a chip or only from Europe?

    Starting the end of April

    Hello! I posted on the board last year as starting my walk in September. Unfortunately, near that time I took a tumble down the stairs and ended up breaking my foot. :shock: Wouldn't you know the first time I ever break anything in my life it is my foot right before a long walking journey...

    Blisters already?!

    Not sure if this is the right category to put this or not, but here goes. I've been debating if I should just suck it up or put my whiny foot problems in here to get some advice or not, lol.

    When done with the trek

    I'm trying to decide if and when I should make the arrangements to get back to Paris from Santiago.
