    A typical day?

    When I've stayed in Ponferrada this Year there were two gentlemen who gave massages and treat blisters and other injuries for free. Also in Estella is Red Cross place where You can seek for help. The people are fantastic.

    A typical day?

    One more thing. If You're coffee lover don't use wending machines. Liquid they sell (for the price of decent coffee in the bar) doesn't ever remind coffee. Best idea is: buy instant coffee sachets for albergues where is the kitchen or just wait few kilometers until You find the opened bar.

    A typical day?

    Hi I think You ask because You're concern about Your ability to cope with Camino regime. Rule number one: Camino is for You and everything will go exactly how do You want. Stick to it. Of course You'll be between people who walk whole day and rest at night so my advice is: In albergue try to be...

    Class of 2008!

    I can understand why Hilda doesn't like snow. She is from Sweden and Sweden is one of not many countries in Europe which still have real winter. They even build a hotel made of ice. Sorry Hilda but like Arn I hope to meet some snow in the mountains. Welcome and see You there. Andy

    Class of 2008!

    Hi Arn I feel like I'll slow down my walk just to meet You. I'm leaving SJPP on Thursday morning with the great hope of catching some winter in the mountains (recently was snowing even in London). I really hope as a former US Marine You'll walk faster and after few days our paths will cross at...

I rather start earlier because I've read SJPDP-Roncesvalles strech is one of most difficult on the camino. Especially when you're not used to walking routine. See...

Will it be enough to take Lavender oil instead? Hate when something sucks my blood without authorization...
