For those who might want to transport a bag, here are the envelopes of two companies. The envelopes can be found at most places to stay along the Camino. Fill out the info and slip the money in. You must notify the company by phone call or... -
I will add to your fear with a short story. During the early 1980's while doing my OE I stayed in a Youth Hostel north of Vancouver somewhere. The rooms had bunks and a concrete floor. I was allocated a bottom bunk. Above me was a young German...

JoeBoston reacted to hikingcat's post in the thread Last minute decisons - fleece or puffer? with
Like.
I'm on the CF right now (also from Aus). I walked Pamplona to Puente La Reina today and it was very cold, about 8-10C max. I was very comfortable wearing a long sleeve merino, lightweight fleece (for comparison, RAB Nexus jacket) and my rain... -

JoeBoston reacted to alexwalker's post in the thread The new Rule 3 - no more tourist vs. pilgrim debates with Like.

JoeBoston reacted to Vacajoe's post in the thread Do you need to stay at an albergue to access their luggage transfer service? with Like.
Really, this is true for any advice from someone who has not walked the route in question in over five years. I did the CF in 2018 and it’s truly changed since then per other forum participants and my friends who have since walked it. In the...
