    Headlamp or tiny flashlight?

    I picked up a light that attacked to the bill of my hat. When I wasn't wearing my hat it could clip to my clothes or backpack in any place I chose. (backpack strap facing out or waistband pointing down at my feet for the albergue.) It was invaluable and incredibly versatile and light weight.

    Post Pilgrimage Musings

    Almost exactly a year from the time I learned about the Camino de Santiago, I stepped out of St. Jean Pied de Port with my pack on my back. I didn't have any idea what to expect. Well, that's not true. I'd done plenty of research to know what the physical part of my Camino entailed, but the...

    How Many People Walked The Camino Without Any Training ?

    I chose to stop in Orisson on my first day because I'm traveling for nearly two solid days before setting off. I figure starting easy the first day will give me time to recuperate from jet lag before tackling the Pyrenees.

    How Many People Walked The Camino Without Any Training ?

    Camino Pilgrim can be downloaded for android based phones, not sure about iphone but I'm guessing it's probably available. It lists all villages along the way and what amenities are available, as well as the size of lodgings and contact information. I can't tell you how accurate it is because I...

    A funny story...

    June 16th I fly out of Boston to begin my very first Camino. I'm incredibly excited (today) and (sort of) enjoying the roller coaster of having bought my tickets 151 days before leaving! I'm now down to 110! After that, I'm thinking the Camino Portuguese for next summer. Still no El Camino...

    A funny story...

    So, I am a windowed mother of two beautiful grown girls. When I made the decision this past summer to walk the Camino after watching "The Way," I told both girls... they had mixed reactions. Youngest: Okay... who are you going with? Me: nobody. I'm going to do this on my own. Youngest: ARE YOU...

    Time between planning and doing

    I saw the movie, "The Way," in July of 2015 and I knew I would do it. I asked a friend who travels regularly (she was in Nepal when I watched the movie) if she wanted to do the Camino with me and she asked if it was something I'd always wanted to do. I'd never even heard of it until the movie...

    Thank you so much for the advice! I would've never guessed a large bowl for coffee! I've downloaded the information and will save it to the table I'm bringing.

    Arriving in SJPdP on June 18

    Thank you Wayfarer! I'm incredibly excited. However, as a perpetual introvert with social shyness who is stepping WAY outside of her comfort zone (I've never even had dinner alone in a restaurant, nor have I ever been to Europe), the idea of a familiar face relieves some initial anxiety I have...
