[QUOTE="Gazelle2, post: 633396, member: 32399"] Always drink water before you depart and when you arrive at your destination. Take your boots and socks off every time you stop for a break, you will really notice the difference. If you become aware of any issue with your feet, stop immediately check for hotspots and redness and treat with a compeed, never let a minor issue become a huge blister, as you did not act, I have walked 4 Camino’s and never had a blister. Weight is your enemy, only take what you need , never fill a rucksack because you have you space left over, I have seen people bought to their knees by the weight of their rucksack. I am going to use a 30 liitre one this year . I always have my wallet phone and glasses attached to my body as when you get tired it is very easy to leave something behind after a stop, the amount of times I have seen people having to go back to retrieve an item they have left behind . Share what you have with people in need . Take safety pins for clothes pegs and a makeshift line so,you can dry your clothes. I always get into the shower with my clothes on after a days walking and wash everything as personnel hygiene is very important , there is nothing worse than a smelly pilgrim who is not doing his personnel admin on a daily basis, it also means you can take less if you wash everything you have walked in daily I have loved every Camino I have done and made wonderful friends from around the world , you will have a great time.
