[QUOTE="lynda2017, post: 538622, member: 72766"] Hello there, I recently quite my job after a stressful year or 2, I am doing the camino starting late aug 2017. I am hoping to find some peace and maybe some new direction in life/time to reflect as I don't think i will return to my stressful profession so am trying to be open to opportunities. I have a tendency to over plan and have been told time and time again that I need to live in the moment and not overanalyse the future and I agree. I have booked flight to biarritz, assume dont need to book bus and train to SJPP but I still want to! I will book a hostel for SJPP, then also a hostel in Huntto (if they reply) as I have had a knee problem in past so want to split this first day. I don't think I need to book any other places... I do want to try and stay in donation only hostels so will try to compile a list of these. -what is appropriate donation for these hostels? -do most hostels have plenty plugs for charging? I am going to be wearing fitbit to use to estimate walking distances but not worth taking if difficult to find plugs everywhere -I have seen chat on some threads about some parts of the way have 2 options for the route, can someone advise me where these are so I am not caught out? -Also are there any other days which are long due to lack of accom (except for first day)? It would be handy to know these. -I will fly from Glasgow but can return to Scotland or London, just wondering what people did about getting home, did you book flight in advance? I plan to finish when I finish really but don't want to finish much later than mid oct -finally, do most people just fly with hand luggage and buy any small items they need like nailscissors in SJPP? -i have footprint focus andy symington guide, worth taking? I want to try to do minimum planning but know I should do a little. Thanks for any advice, I hope I can relax on the camino as I really need this. :) [/QUOTE]
