    bedbugs at Jesus y Maria in pamplona ?

    Hi, I stayed in this hostel for 4 nights in November 2013. (My blisters were so bad I needed to go to the hospital to get treatment for them) I had no problems at all with this hostel. I would throughly recommend this hostel.

    I got my hair cut before I left from shoulder length to short with a fringe. This still really annoyed me and 2 weeks into the camino I ended up going to a hairdresser in Leon and asked them to shave most of it off. I love my new Camino haircut!

    What can I expect to find in a grocery store?

    Fasting is good for the soul, I do 48 hour water fasts every so often and feel fantastic after them, I have also carried out my fasts while I have been training for the Camino walking about 17km. I shall not be fasting during my Camino but if I don't come upon any food when I feel I should be...

    Men in their underwear?

    I wouldn't care if they were parading around with flashing beacons on their head while walking naked. God gave us this body and its what will carry us along the camino. Nudity is over rated anyway! My Dutch sister in law is very open about nudity and thinks nothing of wondering around naked...
