    Pilgrim Playlists

    I opted out of music for the most part, but discovered Oliver Schroer's album "Camino" along the way and when I did want a bit of music, it was just perfect:

    Sports bras

    I recommend that you go look at the brand Ice Breaker. http://eu.icebreaker.com/Sports-Bras/womens-sports-bras,en,sc.html All their material is natural, made from merino wool and cotton fiber, from New Zealand. It's pricey, but it's worth it. The material dries very quickly, so you can...

    Pamplona to Bayonne

    It's not crazy. It's a beautiful route and there's no reason not to walk it the direction you want to walk. I think the Camino is a lot about making choices, deliberately. So do it if you want. The route is a bit up and down, but worth it for the vistas. Plus the Basque country is a very...

    Hostel in Maronas?

    I walked through here this morning, having stayed in the O'Reiro albergue in Vilarserio (clean but cold) because the rain was too much to go on to Maroñas as I had hoped to. But I was up early and out on the road, and stopped for desayuno at the café at the albergue Casa Pepa which is so new...

    Sleeping Bag for Camino Frances early march ?

    What if I only carried a sleeping sheet? Would that force me to stay in hotels instead of albergues? I like both kinds so overnight options and like playing it by ear, which worked fine in May and June when a sleeping sheet + blanket at albergue was sufficient. In March, is a sleeping bag...

    Arriving Good Friday or Easter

    Even as I hit "submit" I had the feeling that it doesn't really matter whether the weekend is nuts or quiet, somehow just get on the route and the right things will happen. Though I add a special Tthanks to Tyrrek -- I hadn't considered that the Botafumeiro might swing during mass on Easter...

    Arriving Good Friday or Easter

    I walked from SJPP to Astorga in 2012, and I have about 270 K left to finish to Santiago. I've been able to clear my schedule of work and other commitments at the end of this coming March 2013. I organized this before I realized that Easter is on March 31st. If I make some guesses at my...
