      I'm a bit embarrassed that I often get tagged in threads like this as if I'm the forum authority on walking with kids - but it is true I have walked the Camino with eight of them from six to 18 years years (and hiked at home with all of them from...

      When I walked with my teenage son in 2016 there was a Korean family who were walking with a 5 year old daughter and a 7 year old son. They were walking the same distances we were, and the kids had more energy than us at the end of the day. I...

      The foot care debate....CamiYes, what you haven't said is what happened to you in 2019, and what were you doing at the time? If your feet normally sweat a lot (like me), then using more lubrication on them probably won't work well. You'll...

      Toughening up your skin really won't help you prevent blisters. People can and do get blisters under calluses or other tough skin, and they can be much harder to treat. What does work is properly fitted footwear and attending to "hot spots" on...

      So I walked into work as a Sr. Digital Marketing Director for a major company in the USA one Monday in October 2019 and got axed after 20 years. Since then all I've done is hike like 16 caminos and write songs. I'm currently 2000+ km into the PCT...

      K_Lynn replied to the thread Merino Wool Shirt Sheep Smell.
      Weird. I have a lot of merino clothing and have never noticed a sheep smell on any of them. I would wash the articles with laundry soap to try and cut the lanolin in the wool.

      I've been wearing Smartwool and Icebreaker tops since 2014, and have never had an issue with unpleasant odor. During the earlier years, I also wore wool blended with synthetics but replaced them due to the odor. Fortunately, it was a simple fix...

      I know you want a taxi - but a two hour bus ride will get you to Pamplona for about €10 from where a taxi could take you the rest of the way

      K_Lynn reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread Taxis with Like Like.
      I'm assuming that the quotes are based on the distance including the journey both ways. Most unlikely that the driver could find a passenger for the return journey to Bilbao. That's about 400km. A fee around 1€ per km does not sound so excessive...
