Agree, and it is relevant as many UKer's come to the EU to walk Caminos. Although our phones are invaluable and often provide ease of use for us when traveling, I am one who always prefer to print each and every item I may be required to prove... -
Harland2019 replied to the thread Proof of income, accommodation and return travel.."in most cases a relatively prosperous looking Brit" - You've not seen me going to start a Camino, especially if I have decided to look like a pilgrim and have grown my hair (thankfully I still have some!) and I've not shaved for a week or so!

Well, then wait until she is fit to walk ... or, if you do not want to wait several days trapped in one place: Do very short days walking. No one forces you to stick to the most common stages. The tiny places in between can be lovely and you...

Harland2019 replied to the thread LIVE from the Camino Ethics Question -- to walk or not to walk?.Whilst not wishing to restate a lot of what has been said above, my view is that a blister on a toe is not an issue that should stop someone walking unless there are other reasons for not enjoying the walk.

I think this is not so much about a blister as it is lack of shared vision for this experience. As the person who has experienced the Camino before, please give your wife a bit of space to process feelings of vulnerability on starting something...

I get it that she doesn't want to miss out, and wants to walk together. That is what you both set out to do so her feelings are understandable. But a blister on a pinkie toe is hardly a show stopping serious injury - many (most?) of us just...

It's an interesting thought and thank you for raising it as I had not given this consideration till now. What do I do? Well I am often the over taker and I excuse myself and pass and do try and put a little distance between us by moving quickly...
