Hi,
I used Nike dry fit and wool socks on top.
It worked for me. I didn’t have any blisters almost the whole way except one which popped up on the last stretch. This was due to my laziness since this one time I didn’t air my feet at the stop. My son and I were free of blisters. although I is...
I am not a very big person and although pretty athletic not doing well with carring heavy stuff. I know I managed this weight twice so will try to do it again. But at the same time have to take what is necessary,. So maybe it will be a bit heavier this time.
Thank you. I will check Decathlon and Lole. I think though I have all that is necessary. Dress and sandals were great for comfort , after a day walk on CF in July. But this Camino and time requires warmer outfits.

Thank you

Thank you. This is very helpful. I checked the sites and the weather doesn’t look too “sunny”. Mostly rain. Hopefully it will change in a month. Need to pray about it.
Hello,
I will be waking Camino Primitivo in September. I was wondering whether I need for the evening light dress and sandals or leggings/ shirt and running shoes. I would like to have different shoes for the evening after the walk. I had sandals when I walked Frances in July. But heard that on...
