  I dunno. Spain is considerably cheaper than where I come from and I can afford to go there, so I don't concern myself with bar prices too much. I order, I eat and drink and then ask what I owe. If service is good, I tip. I don't frequent posh...

  Whilst at home, I tend not to walk in to town with my underwear hanging on the outside of my bag. Tried it once . . . People can be so unkind . . . . . . A positive was getting some great recommendations for therapists in the local area 🤣

  I don’t even know where to start with this comment haha. First off, I’ve traveled the world (45 countries at this point), without a man. I never take a tour, and plan everything so that I’m completely independent. That includes time in the Middle...

- LisaWalker replied to the thread Any risk of walking without insoles?.
  
  Ive done that before on a trek when my feet swelled up. I also always take a thin pair of socks than I’d usually prefer just to give my feet heaps of room while swelling lasts. I try drink lots of water. Someone told me that helps don’t know why.
