    Trail shoes for a New Balance 880 lover?

    I will be walking again next year. I walked in my Hoka One Ones. While I love them for home they were not a good shoe for the Camino. My arches fell and now I have some damage. I certainly dont want to scare you but pick a shoe with good support. My Hokas feel amazing even to this day but not...

    Show me your tattoo

    I think that my tattoo was what kept me going some days. I was not going to get one unless I completed all 500 miles. I DID and I love my tattoo.

    There is always Long Tall Sally. Its been a while since I ordered from them. I also like Title Nine and Jill, their shirts run on the long side.

    Doors on the Camino Frances

    I loved taking pictures of the Camino way markers. Every morning I would pick a flower and put on the markers and send a picture for the day to my granddaughter Sophie. Looking at the photos now, I can remember where they were. I finished last month.

    Municipal albergues allowing large group to reserve 😡

    I’m a slow walker on the Camino. I arrive late in the day and at this point in my walk, there are no rooms. I can either book a pension or hotel or taxi to the next villa. This is not how I imagined my Camino. It’s getting very difficult. I agree that times are changing in the Camino. I wished I...

    Can we do some Pillow talk?

    Half way through my Camino and I use my blow up Summit pillow every night. Wouldn’t want to be without it. Amazing.

    Can we talk TOWELS please?

    I lost my towel in Burgos. I bought a scarf and I have used it as my towel, my neck warmer and shawl. It’s probably 100% poly. It doesn’t say what the material may be. I would not take a towel as such but I would take a scarf. I’m half way through my Camino!
