    Lost & Found (Found) Lost my credit card between Larrasoaña and Pamplona

    Late update! But the magic of the Camino showed itself. I started walking back to see if I could find it. Bumped into a woman pilgrim who asked if anything was wrong and I explained the situation. She told me that a man had found it and picked it up and was going to leave it in Pamplona for...

    Lost & Found (Found) Lost my credit card between Larrasoaña and Pamplona

    So as the title says I've lost a credit card, but apparently it was picked up by some other pilgrims and they plan to leave it for me somewhere in Pamplona. If this is you, please get in touch and let me know where to collect it. Thanks!

    Travel insurance for a UK citizen walking Camino Frances: Necessary/worth it?

    Because that's the coolest way 😎

    Travel insurance for a UK citizen walking Camino Frances: Necessary/worth it?

    It covers 34 days. It was actually only £25. Maybe it's low because I have no underlying health conditions and my age, but I've checked the policy documents and it definitely seems to cover everything and for the correct duration. I even paid a bit extra to be covered for hiking up to 2000m.

    Travel insurance for a UK citizen walking Camino Frances: Necessary/worth it?

    Thanks for all the replies. I think I've been convinced that for £30 it's probably worth having. You never know what's going to happen and everyone says "it won't happen to me", but it always happens to someone. I can afford it so I may as well have it.

    Travel insurance for a UK citizen walking Camino Frances: Necessary/worth it?

    As a UK citizen I can access healthcare in any EU country for free (or at least very little) using my EHIC/GHIC card. My flight to France was only around £50. I don't have my return flight booked yet. My luggage is probably worth no more than £200. My smartphone is insured separately. I'm 29...

    Pilgrimage, another series on BBC2

    I've only just heard of this series. Does anyone have a link to somewhere I can watch the first series about the Camino? Can't find it anywhere and it's not available on BBC iPlayer

    How many people are starting from SJPDP each day

    I thought August was the busiest period of the year? I heard May was relatively quiet... I will look at staying in the intermediate Albergues. Thanks!

    How many people are starting from SJPDP each day

    Will this be necessary during May? I'm starting 1st May from SJPdP and I've only booked Roncesvalles. The rest I was going to play it by ear and not book ahead. I'm young and fit so I don't think I'll mind much having to walk an extra hour or so to find the next albergue if the one I want is full.

    Buen camino! Wish I was there too instead of working from home.

    Travel Pre paid debit cards

    Very little. As I mentioned above, a 100 euro withdrawal would only cost 5 cents per day. If you pay it back the same day, it'll cost you 5 cents total for the withdrawal.

    Travel Pre paid debit cards

    Hi. I have to completely disagree with this. Your normal debit card is very likely to charge a fee for withdrawing cash (around £3 usually), and perhaps some conversion fees on top. I don't see how travel money cards could make the banks more money as they're usually free and don't charge...

    The first official camino in Ukraine welcomes!

    I've just stumbled across this post. I really hope that you are alive and well @normaliser. I can't imagine how difficult this time must be for you and your countrymen. Slava Ukraini. 💙💛

    Poll Do you listen to anything while walking?

    I'm going on my Camino hoping that I will feel bored and learn to become tolerant of it.

    Poll Do you listen to anything while walking?

    I meant specifically artificial stimulation, i.e. that from an electronic device/headphones.
