    how to prepare backpack for flight?

    Hola! What I use is a transit bag. Your rucksack fits inside the transit bag, which protects it from damage. It depends on what transit bag you get. Some are cheapy and some are wonderfully strong. I've used this transit bag many times and it never lets me down. Here's the one I use...

    That's great! Personally for me i've never used walking sticks when walking long distances, so never really had thought about using them. Although this will be the longest walk i've done.

    I've never used walking sticks to walk. What's the benefit of using them?

    Early May?

    Hi :) I'm new to this forum, thought I'd join considering I'm going to be walking the Camino. I'm wondering are there places to sleep overnight and to grab some food? What happens if you don't have a place to stay? This is the main reason I'm bringing a tent. Has anyone had trouble finding a...
