      I agree. Second place probably the descent to Zubiri. And bronze medal goes to the descent from the Alto del Perdon.

      I have agonized about this too. The extra weight is not helpful. I did the Frances from León to Santiago last month and decided to take a light puffy and use my rain jacket as a windbreaker too. It worked very well. Some mornings I had all my...

      I like to have a windproof jacket with light insulation (that i can wear most of the times) and combine it with a light fleece underneath (when it gets colder). You can look at the weather forecast about 3 days prior to setting out and decide...

      Lots of responses are offered. My US plan (Visible with Verizon) does not offer an international plan. Last month I got a Vodafone eSIM with only data. It worked very well for me to use apps and WhatsApp to call home. 12€ for 5GB for 10 days...

      I was in Santiago over the weekend and the Botafumeiro was not in the Cathedral. Not even the ropes.
