    Wonderful! Enjoy!

    Awesome, Cejanus! Thanks for the detailed explanation. My feet do the same thing and it was the first thing I started concentrating on. In addition to the pumice stone, I have found nightly use of a black nail file (coarse) helps as well as a combination of applying Salicylic Acid (found in over...

    Cejanus, sounds like a great plan! What do you do for foot preparation this far out? I'm looking for all the best ways to prepare for my first walk next September.

    Thanks for this. I've been looking for apps and hadn't come across this one. Giving it a go right now to see what I think. DuoLingo has an interesting back story, as well. http://www.fluentin3months.com/duolingo/ I'm also going to rent audio Spanish lessons from my local library. All that high...

    Frankly, other than taking care of my feet, my biggest concern is I won't want to come back. At all. I'm still a decade away from getting Social Security, but it has occurred to me that it is more than enough to fund endless trekking if I didn't have housing expenses to maintain stateside.

    I hadn't connected your comment to directly to foot care at all, but received it as approaching all things in balance. Was your trip to the podiatrist helpful?

    I've seen this thread as well as another with exercises to strengthen the feet. Great resources. Very sobering.

    Thank you, Dennis. It feels like the journey has already begun as a negotiate the inner workings that are craving the Camino. Even before I started thinking about which route to take, I started collecting links to foot care posts here. You guys are great! I think the first place to start is a...

    Ah, Falcon, I can see how you might have had a concern reading this bit. The thing is, I'm running up on 57 here. If I don't do a little Life Disruption now, I'll miss my chance to change things up as well as the opportunity to put some feet on my lifelong travel dreams. It's apparent to me if I...

    Hi, I'm in the very beginning embryonic stages of conceiving my first Camino for sometime next year. I've been lurking on this site for a short time only. I haven't figured out how to choose my route yet. In fact, if you can point me to a good thread about the various routes, I'd appreciate it...
