    Sleeping bag inquiry~

    Hey fellow pilgrims, I'm wondering what an appropriate sleeping bag might look like for a casual summer hike from Le Puy to Santiago, from late May to mid-August. I might also bring a tent so would need to take camping into consideration. Thanks for your help!

    Bringing euros to Spain

    Hey johnnyman, I had the same experience as newfydog; you should call your bank and see what they charge for using your debit or credit card overseas. My bank charged $5 Canadian per transaction (mastercard) at ATMs in Europe with the regular exchange rate which was as good as I saw anywhere...

    Skip 2 days of walking, where is the best place to do it?

    Hi Marjorie, I think Sil is right ... you should have plenty of time to walk the whole way to Santiago without missing anything! You probably even have time to walk to Finisterre and Muxia before catching your flight on June 15. You will probably find that you might not adhere to your 20...

    Detours

    Hey Chignecto, The best detour I took, and the best day of walking for me on the camino Frances this past October, was the detour out of Villafranca through Dragonte and two more mountains after that and meets back up with the other route just before La Faba. The scenery is incredible, you...

    Incident between Arre and Larrasoana

    Carli, You are certainly right that a knife is aggressive, and no, I was not prepared to use it, but it's all I had after a hostel in Madrid threw my staff in the garbage :( :( :( I think you are right, that a whistle would track attention from one's surroundings, although in this...

    Incident between Arre and Larrasoana

    Hey all, I just finished my camino from St Jean to Finisterre on November 1. It was the best experience I have ever had in my life!

    St Jean

    So I booked my flight to Paris for September 25 - arriving Sept 26 and taking a train to SJPP on the 27th to start walking on the 28th. How peculiar that L'esprit du Chemin closes its season the day I arrive in St Jean!! :shock: :shock: What is the next best place to stay in SJ? Thanks

    train from Paris to St jean pied de port

    I checked the SNCF website for a train from Paris to SJPP September 10 and there is apparently only one train leaving at 13h37: CHARLES DE GAULLE 2 TGV (95) - ST JEAN PIED DE PORT (64)? Does that sound right? I thought there was an overnight train. THe one leaving at 1330 also takes over 8...
