[QUOTE="TravellingMan22, post: 1219957, member: 110285"] Thanks David! Enjoy the book. I agree with the theory .. we only have limited time and can never listen to every song or read every book so anytime doing this or any other activity takes anyway time to read other books or listen to other songs or do something else. But I do think the size of purchase is important. I know people have the time and money to do other things on here (my perception of the degree of affluence on here, and the number of retirees indicates lots of ‘freedom’ to do what they like although folks will have things like caring duties tompwrform) but I still think that a USD5k / 40 day investment means folks can and do trade off doing another Camino versus other significant time and money investments. In my case I am really keen to do VDLP but every time it gets near the ‘top of the list’ it is usurped by something else that I think is a better time and money investment. Of course for many, repeat caminos’ make sense and I totally get that - why do something different you may not enjoy. I recently met a couple in Alicante in a bar who go to the same apartment every year on holiday and they thought I was crazy ‘risking’ doing vastly different things. They love it, it’s familiar, and a big part of their life. Why do I ‘take the risk’. Many people on here talk about a regret about ‘discovering’ the Camino late in life. I always dread finding something I like at age 70 and wishing I had found it in my forties. Some people are motivated by familiarity and some people by ‘different’, and many a mixture of both or somewhere in between. No right or wrong to that! I have enjoyed my 3 caminos and want to do one more plus 2 or 3 other hikes in different continents. I feel if I committed to 5 more caminos it may impact my ability to do the other hikes. [/QUOTE]
