    Recycling is good but it wasn't voluntary, it became law, with fines for not doing it. The same with the move to less polluting cars .. expensive clean air zones and so on, not voluntary, not choice. So there is no virtue in it. I do see a lot...

    I still think this scheme is like buying indulgences- or throwing money into a fire. Unless I can absolutely verify that my hard earned dollar is actually going to help offset emissions I will stick helping people locally with immediate needs.

    Felice replied to the thread Train schedule renfe vs trainline.
    Why not try the bus? Alsa does a direct route from Madrid to Leon numerous times a day. Their buses are comfortable and not expensive.

    Felice replied to the thread Has the Camino lost its way?.
    Superficially, maybe. We're all travelling along the same route - walk, eat, sleep, repeat. Look closer, and we do it in our unique way. So many different expectations, attitudes, methods, abilities, we're none of us the same as the next...
