[QUOTE="mspath, post: 1109722, member: 7963"] During my first caminos my husband and I communicated when necessary by land-line telephone; since 2008 I carried a smartphone which also served as camera+computer on which I wrote my daily blogs then using Blogspot Since we both were then in our 70's whilst apart we texted each other good morning, briefly cited our daily plans, and texted again at day's end. Simple, swift and efficacious this helped keep each of us in the other's loop although physically we were often on different continents. While walking a phone and European assistance number [B]112[/B] can provide [B]invaluable emergency help[/B]. Luckily I have never personally needed such assistance, but over the years I have called [B]112 [/B]for other pilgrims who needed fast help and either had no phone or were unable to use a phone. ...In retrospect I would never walk without a phone. Carrying one may help save someone else's life. Furthermore I would never carry a computer or iPad; I like to travel light. However i always carried my full backpack. Although I am no longer hiking at 83 I still use a smartphone as my computer. All my posts here are written on the phone. I am using it now to write this. [/QUOTE]
