    Spanish Bible

    First of all religion is by no means a taboo topic on the Camino. The Camino is first and foremost a Catholic pilgrimage but no exclusive to just Catholics or Christians. I found reading the Bible in Spainish a great way to learn.

    Security crackdown on taking walking poles with cabin backpacks

    I have always checked in the walking poles. Or you can post ahead and collect. Airport security won’t let you take them airside in the airport.
