Longest distance between alberques on CF
We’re getting ready to start on January 18, and it looks like a lot of albergues are closed, so that means much longer walks some days, right? Deja vu from when we did Norte in November 2015!- Cheri SLP

The Introverted Pilgrim
I was going to recommend this book as well! Modern Western society values the extrovert, and for most of my life i’ve felt bad about myself because I’m shy and introverted, but after reading ‘Quiet’ I finally found peace with who I am. It’s a powerful book, and a useful read before doing...- Cheri SLP

Best Women's Hiking Trouser for any Camino?
On Camino Norte, I wore Ex-Officio convertible pants, but I found that it was such a pain to constantly be zipping and unzipping the lower leggings. When you're cold and tired, getting the zipper lined up just right was less than ideal! I currently wear REI Kornati roll-up pants, and I LOVE...- Cheri SLP

Our Camino del Norte Journey
You are exactly right! Enjoy the wonderful walk, take your time. Cheri was more worried about the day to day bed issue, and I was more worried about seasonal issues, since November was looming. I wish we would have taken another 5-6 days on the Camino, for our bodies, as well as to enjoy the...- Cheri SLP

Our Camino del Norte Journey
I would think about spending an extra day in San Sebastian to enjoy the food! We never really felt unsafe, although a couple of people did raise the hairs on the back of our necks. Listen to your instincts. If you feel that something is off, do not be hesitant to separate yourself from...- Cheri SLP

Our Camino del Norte Journey
Thanks for reading! We started in October, and hardly used our bags. I just took a 40°F (5°C) quilt from enlightened equipment and I only used it a couple of times. My wife took a 20°F (-6°C) bag from feathered friends, and she ended up using my quilt way more than her bag, and way more than...- Cheri SLP

Our Camino del Norte Journey
We did the Camino del Norte starting on October 1, 2015. Before we started our hike, we were not aware of the forums, although I sure wish we would have known about it. Like many Americans, we were introduced to the Camino through the 2010 movie The Way. As soon as we saw it, we knew we had to...- Cheri SLP
