    TassietoVP reacted to Bradypus's post in the thread The Way, My Way - the movie with Like Like.
    To hordes of US folks perhaps. The US made up a little over 7% of the total number of pilgrims last year. Adding in all the other English-speaking nations would put it a bit over 10%. On the Caminos "nearly everyone" is far wider than one...

    I just saw the trailer for the movie The Way, My Way, and it looks great. Trailer says it will be in theatres May 16. Hoping it makes it to a theatre where I live. I’d love the opportunity to see a Camino movie on the big screen. The movie also...

    you could try La Poste [national postal service of France] ... the post office at Le Puy is just down the street from the train station where you will [presumably] arrive ... but I expect they will also have a weight limit ... worth a try...

    Welcome to the forum! @rainswift is absolutely correct. Re: forgotten items: mini first aid kit. By that I mean a couple of plasters/ band aids, a couple of painkillers and any essential medications, and whatever blister prevention system...

    TassietoVP reacted to rainswift's post in the thread First Time Pilgrim - What Day Bag? with Like Like.
