    Need to ship stuff home

    Hola Pilgrims. I need to ship some extra weight home. Viana has a Post Office, which is where I’m heading. Will they have packing supplies there, ie: small box or bag, tape? Any help is appreciated. Buen Camino!

    Thank you, Forum.

    I leave tomorrow from the US to SJPDP to begin my Camino (Francés). Just want to say “Thank You” to this Forum; I’ve gotten many good ideas, and several questions answered. Hope to report back. Buen Camino! I feel like a baby bird finally flying the nest.

    Night Hikes / Star Gazing

    Ok, Monty here. Love starting these threads: I learn so much from the Veteran Camino Pilgrims. Thanks in advance. My question: are there so called “Night Hikes” in certain regions to get out and view/explore the awesome stars and constellations on clear nights? I’ve heard about this a few...

    Walking with headphones?

    In my training walks I might listen to my playlist: a lot of Worship music, but plenty of Bon Jovi, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin. Throw in some Andrew Lloyd Webber, Classical and Prince. Guess I know why my wife thinks I’m a little ADHD🤪. But mostly Worship music. HOWEVER, in Western North Carolina, if...

    Bar Etiquette

    Ok Pilgrims, I’m starting my first Camino (Frances) in a little over 2 weeks and am “wrapping up” my miscellaneous questions. This is a little trivial (no snarkiness, please): I’m a solo pilgrim. If I stop off at a Bar or Cafe and want a beer or something, do I “seat myself” and a Server comes...

    When should I stop training?

    First thing: this is not a health question. I would seek my doctor’s advice for that, not a forum. I’ve been hiking, stretching, etc. for almost a year in preparation for my Camino. I was wondering what the pilgrims with Camino experience thought about not hiking or walking right up to when I...

    When Posting Reviews on Gronze . . .

    Well said, Annie. One of my worries as I embark on my first Camino next month, is that I’ll encounter “these negative people” and not be able to hold my tongue.

    WhatsApp, pay in advance?

    I’ve booked my first nights (SJPDP, Roncesvalles, Zubiri and Pamplona). I used Booking.com for one, the Albergue’s website for two, and WhatsApp for one. I paid on the websites and Booking, but for Zubiri, I simply used WhatsApp to inquire as to availability. She was so nice. She DID text that...

    The Way, My Way - the movie

    Wow, I was training yesterday and listening to My Camino the podcast with Dan Mullins who interviewed Bill Bennett, the writer, director, producer of this movie. Incidentally, the podcast host, Dan Mullins sings the song you hear on the trailer. Great, hour-long interview about the movie…and...
