    Virtual walk on the Camino de Madrid - Detailed planning

    I agree with Laurie. We stopped off for two nights and a rest day in Valladolid and were very happy to have done so. (Someone on the Forum -- perhaps Laurie -- had mentioned it as a pleasant place to spend some time). It is not a touristy city at all which was refreshing after Segovia...

    Starting Camino Del Norte on Tuesday, 29th June 2021

    Ass Pads - A Serious Topic!

    In my long ago girl guiding days we called those “sit upons.” I was loaned one part way through my Frances walk and found it useful so purchased one for my next Caminos. Took an extremely light weight one which didn’t take up much room but proved great especially for the picnic lunches on rough...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD A year ago today

    Thank you for providing this perspective, Rebekah. It is good to hear from someone who is actually living the experience. I feel too like I can visualize your community after reading your book, A Furnace Full of God. What a beautiful piece of writing.

    FRM I think you did a very good job of making it clear. I wonder too what has happened to the people living along the Way.
