    Low fee ATMs. Where

    Last year May - June I used Clarity. Abanca did not charge fees on ATM withdrawals. There App was good and it was easy to top up funds to avoid paying interest on ATM withdrawals which start at the point of taking the money out. I was also told deutcher was also fee free. Santander had the most...

    The Way, My Way - the movie

    Looks a bit like the other film. As a film (and entertainment) to maintain interest, it needs to include a range of events that would probably not happen to ordinary mortals (like me). imo this will be its downfall. I enjoyed doing the camino ( a very personsl experience) though I don't think my...

    Last day in Santiago

    IMO the passport and process is a very personal thing. If you want to "cheat" then the only person you are cheating is yourself and why would you want to do that? I arrived at the office (30th june) ready to show my two cards (started from St Jean) only to find i had the left the second card at...
