KiwiBrownz reacted to jmaher's post in the thread How to choose a Camino Prep Fitness Program? with
Like.
I'll give you my training program for this years camino and why I'm using it. I walked the camino last year as well and I over emphasized cardio type exercises; rowing, cycling, walking, running etc. I had it in my head that if I was able to do... -
KiwiBrownz reacted to J Willhaus's post in the thread How to choose a Camino Prep Fitness Program? with Like.
It may be good to get your Camino gear together (packed pack, shoes, socks, etc.) and do a few hikes in that to see how your shoes and socks do and whether your pack is comfortable on a couple of longer hikes. Other than that, perhaps just...

KiwiBrownz reacted to Tincatinker's post in the thread Most Dangerous stage on Camino Frances.? with Like.
Can I turn this? I’ll turn this. The most dangerous place on the Camino Frances, or any other Camino, is the gap between expectation and reality. Many have fallen there. Yes there are places where the footing is a bit challenging and there are...

When i was taking classes in Spain around 20 years ago, the fellows at the language school told me to order a Caña for the main reason that i will be cheaper than a Cerveza. No idea if it was true, but the idea kind of stuck and i kept ordering...

KiwiBrownz reacted to MesaWalker's post in the thread What do you wish you had worried less about? with Like.
I worried too much about the ability to communicate in Spanish. That's not about wishing that I had studied less - I wish I had studied more. But once in Spain, you find a way to communicate, regardless of your level of Spanish fluency (or lack...

KiwiBrownz reacted to Peterexpatkiwi's post in the thread The booking ahead problem: Is it a problem? with Like.
It really doesn’t matter if you are phoning or using an app, you’re still booking ahead, even if just for the night. Nothing wrong with either. If the local Albergue wants to increase their market share, they can easily release more beds to the...
