    Starting Lisbon in June, in a bit of a loss.

    Thank you, Leigh :) When I walked the Frances, I was very spontaneous. I read so much in advance I knew my options at all time and just decided as I walked. I thought that in the Portuguese it is not possible because it seems that there are 2 main routes with 2 variants (?), and because this...

    Starting Lisbon in June, in a bit of a loss.

    We are, aren't we? :) Are you as concerned about the heat and the crowds as I am? I did the CF in March April, so it will be very different for me this time around. Bom Caminho!

    Starting Lisbon in June, in a bit of a loss.

    Thank you, peregrino_tom! I have more than enough time, but less funds :) I prefer to spend as little as I can on the way, but if I find that I have to pay 45 euro for a B&B because there's no other option, then of course I will do it. Maybe I will just make sure to only go to municipal...

    Starting Lisbon in June, in a bit of a loss.

    I can say that I absolutely loved the Frances. I did do it in March April and not in high season, I do not like crowds so much. From others I know that the Norte is not as well equipped, but if you have your heart set on it, I am sure with the help of those who did the Norte you can see how it...

    Starting Lisbon in June, in a bit of a loss.

    Hi everyone, On June 23rd I am starting to walk from Lisbon. This is my second Camino, as I've done the Frances in 2014. I find myself in a completely different state of mind this time around. In 2014 I loved reading about the route, looking at recommended albergues and writing notes for...

    Class of 2018

    I am starting the Camino Portuguese from Lisbon on June 23rd 2018. It will be my second Camino, as I've done the French way in 2014. My first Camino was life changing and I do hope this one will prove to be the same. Funnily enough, I searched for a Camino forum without remembering I was active...

    Last minute packing questions

    Metropolly and Thomas1962, thank you :) Anniesantiago,gerardcarey, and Cissa69 - your last minute input is great and I will take it into account. I didn't mention poles because I plan on picking them up at SJPP. Also, I might consider a rain jacket instead of the poncho. It's difficult for me...

    Actual snow situation on the CF 2014

    The snow situation doesn't sound good at all for someone arriving in a few days... Where did you hear about the sexual assault? It's terrible to hear :(

    Last minute packing questions

    So this is how it is, My pack is 8 kg. It includes the pack weight, and excludes what I am wearing (thermal suit, thermal socks, underwear, sports bra, long sleeve marino wool shirt, hat, gloves, neck-warmer). I put the fleece and altus inside the pack for the weighing. 1. I decided to take...

    Last minute packing questions

    I'll start by saying that you are all amazing. I don't think I've ever seen a forum that provides such fast, comprehensive, and professional help. I'm taking your recommendations to heart and re-packing, I'll update soon with the new weight :) I am conflicted between my pack and my friend's...

    Last minute packing questions

    I must say, your replies scared the hell out of me :) My last minute packing is due to being sick in bed the last 9 days. I wasn't sure I will be able to go until my doctor approved it yesterday. I really wanted to trial pack sooner and now I wish I had. You will notice I have a lot of meds...

    Last minute packing questions

    Hey everyone, I am leaving for my camino in two days! I have a few dilemmas I'd appreciate help with. 1. My pack weighs 9.5 kg without food and water, it's a 60L pack (I didn't fill it up, but it's my trusty old pack! and I didn't want to purchase a new one). I am 163 cm and weigh 58 kg. Do you...
