    10 Quick Questions from a Camino novice

    OH YEAH! Plan to continue on to Finisterre. I am so depressed that I did not go. I had time, but not to do everything, I chose to hug the apostle and attend mass instead. Wish I would have done it all. Also if your iPod is a touch there is a Camino App by Eroski Consumer, it has maps...

    10 Quick Questions from a Camino novice

    3. Do people bring walking sticks with them? Or do you pick up one along the way! :D You can do whichever. I did not carry a stick but only did from Sarria to SDC. Two of my friends used sticks and two of us didn't 4. Looking into trousers- was thinking light combats, have the added benifit...

    August

    First I want to say there should be a folder for months walking so people can connect, and if there is I would love to be pointed in the right direction :-) Is anyone thinking they will be between Leon and Santiago in August. I am looking to start walking from Leon on August 11 or 12 and have...

    full albergues

    Thank you everyone for the wonderful advice! I agree the Camino Will Provide! I have a new question for veterans, I have found several towns with campsites, any idea what the rate to sleep outside is? I am definitely taking my sleeping bag (It is only 1 lb) Thanks!

    Hola Chicos
