    What’s on your playlist?

    I listen contemporary country, I have some 500 songs in my playlist, but I don't ever reach more than 20-25 first ones and I start all over again. 🤣

    Great Places to eat on the CF

    Wonder why? We did that too. https://campacamino.blogspot.fi/2016/04/puntiksella-caminosta.html It's in Finnish, but you can use silly translation and there is a photo about our excellent meal at Burger King Leon. Perhaps not the most glorious memory of our camino.

    Great Places to eat on the CF

    Also the rabbit stew in a little hotel or pension at Calzadilla de la Cueza was excellent. I'm sorry, but I can't find the name of the restaurant, but it was so small village (about 60-100 people according to guidebook) so perhaps it was the only place to serve meals in the whole village...

    Great Places to eat on the CF

    Casa Teodora at Arzua was very nice place to eat, I found in from tripadvisor and menu del dia was the best during my camino this spring. http://www.casateodora.com/ There were bunch of people waiting the restaurant to be open and by the clothes and different kind of difficulties to walk, I...

    What did you do with your Pilgrim Passport and Compostella?

    My camino was 6 months ago and the tube is still at the living room coffee table :) It is quite difficult to get the compostela from the tube without causing damage. My credential is in some safe place I don't remember right now... New one for the next camino is on its way from Ivar's Camino Shop.

    For Sale/Wanted Wanted: Macabi Skirt XL, regular or long (not black)

    I bought XL size regular charcoal one just before my camino, did not use it at all, because the weather was so wet. It is a bit too large for me, so I'm ready to sell it. :)

    Deuter packs

    I used a Deuter backpack 45+10 (some ladies model) and was very pleased with it. One little annoying thing there was. Every day after some 5-6 kms walk the backpack started to have small squeaking noise. I could not find exactly where, but I assume it started when it got warm from my body after...

    self guided bookings - Leon to Santiago in June ?

    Correos (Spanish Postal Service) is also very good, flexible and not expensive. My sister used Correos and was very pleased with it.

    Camino Frances March 2016

    Hi! We met a couple of times, were in same albergues at least at Granon and Tosantos :D We were the two sisters from Finland. Hope your camino went well, we did not meet after that Tosantos day, I think. We saw your son few times during walking, he was so nice young man!

    Class of 2016

    My sister used this Correos service in our camino, that we finished 10 days ago. It was very reliable, flexible and did not cost much. It was easy to use, she sent emails daily about next day's delivery. Also calling was possible and necessary sometimes, if there was no internet connection in...

    Supplex Nylon or Macabi skirt available locally?

    In my brand new Macabi Skirt has a label: made in Sri Lanka. I paid that 60 dollar shipping cost, with pain. But it was very quick, I ordered it Thursday and the skirt came following Tuesday from Utah to Finland.
