    Warmth of sleeping bag needed?

    I will be walking the Camino towards the end of September and through October. How warm of a sleeping bag is needed for this time of year? I know that not all of the pilgrim refuges are heated, yet I still want to try to carry a lightweight sleeping bag. Thank you!! :)

    OFF works on bed bugs, not just mosquitoes? Also, do you spray everything with permethrin once before you leave, every day, or every few days?

I REALLY don't like how hot they make me (as they are waterproof). As a runner, I...

    Too cold to walk in October? Too deserted for a woman alone?

    Do plenty of people walk the Camino through the end of October? I am unsure as to whether or not the beginning of October is considered the "winter" people avoid walking during. I fly into Paris on September 17th and plan to make my way down to Saint Jean Pied De Port no later than September...
