    Hi Lulla Thanks for your advice! Already tried lavender oil and tee tree oil for the itch. Unfortunately it didnt work at all. Also I don‘t want to embaras them by treating my stuff so intense. If I‘ll see any at home I‘ll definitely try the thing with a garbage bag! Thanks a lot

    Looks like it‘s written in d minor. Guess you will have to try out some different chords based on that. Good Luck! ( Maybe I‘ll try it myself on the piano)

    Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, is on fire.

    President Macron said they will raise money to rebuild Notre Dame starting to collect Tuesday. If every pilgrim would donate only a few euros we could really make a difference.

    To book or not to book

    I started end of June and arrived in Santiago mid july. I think Redondela is a nice town. If you will stay in Rubias, try to stay in Ninho. It‘s a private albergue and its name means „nest“. It really is. A warm welcome and 2 kind dogs are waiting for you. Loved it there

    To book or not to book

    I walked the CP beginning in Porto last year. Had no problems with finding an accomodation at all. Maybe you should book in Porto. There may be to many tourists to just go and see. Buen Camino
