    Camino and economics

    Thanks for your insight and observations. I do realize that spending one's Camino being concerned about the economy is not likely the best use of time and energy. I recognize that I am among the privileged to be able to save enough money and use my holidays and interchange enough shifts to...

    Camino and economics

    Has the current economic situation in Europe affected the Camino? If yes, in what ways? Perhaps those of you who are veterans or those who have walked some years ago and recently would like to comment.

    Trail Mantra

    I,too, sing when the going gets tough on the trail. You Lift Me Up, Seize The Day, Servant Song and little songs I make up to keep my feet going. I suspect I will employ these when I walk the Camino in Sept.

    Member's Forum names

    My name is Maggie, well actually Margaret. I have no second name but a dear English war bride we called Auntie Margaret, suggested I could borrow her second name Jane. And so I have. Perhaps when I am out there doing my solo Camino I can think of a more interesting Forum Name.

    Insect repellant
