So true So true! Almost wish I didn't read this thread but now I'm glad I read some of it.
I'm doing my first Camino and only part of it, at that. I'm so freaking excited! I'm excited to do something, I've never done before, go to places I've never seen, meet people I've never met. Most...
Yes, these are great suggestions! And since we are on gear effecting women, I'm now lucky to say I'm knocking off the mooncup! Yay!
We've chopped the Dr. Bronner's up and it is working great for us with washing ourselves, brushing teeth, and clothing. I believe, since in our everyday lives...
Thank you all for your input!

Howdy all! My partner and I will be walking SJPP to Logrono last week of July/first week of August. I'm so excited. We are going to go as lightweight as possible 25l backpack. No need for extras! Buen Camino Everyone!
