    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Snoring is part and parcel of the experience, yes. Loud snoring doesn't need to be. If someone knows that they snore loudly to the point of keeping others awake, the considerate thing is to sleep elsewhere and not expect others to accommodate them.

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Non-snorers "give" in terms of bringing earplugs. A reasonable request. That said, one shouldn't be expected to "give" on the reasonable expectation of being well rested for the next day.

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    A decent night's sleep is a completely reasonable expectation. Suggesting is not the same as demanding. You are attempting to discredit that point by taking it to its ridiculous extreme. When someone is awoken by loud snoring, that doesn't mean they have sleep difficulties. It means that...

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    If they know they are a snorer, then they are the ones who need to upgrade their accommodation. Not the people who they are keeping awake.

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Yeah no, it's not. If you think that's aggression, you've got bigger problems which cannot be solved here. I posit that sleeping in a shared space if you know you are a snorer is aggression. One being a snorer doesn't supercede the rights of dozens of other people to get much needed rest.

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Stating (even strongly stating) that it bothers one is not aggression. Suggesting that snorers get a private room is not aggression. Expressing dismay over a poor night's sleep ahead of a full day of walking isn't aggression.

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    I draw it at suffering physically and mentally the next day from sleeplessness the night before. But that's just me.
  8. AR1965

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Loud ones are, yes.
  9. AR1965

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    Yup. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of a few.
  10. AR1965

    Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

    There's a whole lot of grey area between "luxury" and a sleepless night caused by loud snoring. You're attempting to discredit the point by taking it to its ridiculous extreme.

    Feast Day Mass

    That is helpful. Thank you!

    Feast Day Mass

    Yes July. I just edited it.

    Feast Day Mass

    I plan on arriving in SDC on July 23, and stay a day or two. How feasible is it that I will be able to get a seat for the 10:00 Mass on the Feast Day, the 25th? Am I better off attending a Pilgrim's Mass the day before?

    Pilgrimage or vacation?

    You could assume good intent. We cannot expect people who have not done this to know the correct/preferred terminology.

    First day - Route Napoléon, or Valcarlos?

    I see. Thank you. That's part of the Napolean route? And is it well marked?
  16. AR1965

    First day - Route Napoléon, or Valcarlos?

    There's an alternate path down from Roncevalles?

    How many stamps?

    Yes. I know that. My question is what people "usually do".
  18. AR1965

    How many stamps?

    I am starting the CF from SJPP on June 15. How many stamps per day do people usually get? I know that I will need 2 per day from Sarria on. But, I am wondering if people just generally get one a day before that, or two (or more?)? I am bringing two pilgrim passports with me in case I need the...

    Sharing Camino Itinerary: Need Template Suggestions

    Personal safety, mainly. I wouldn't want random strangers on the internet knowing where to find me as a woman traveling alone.

    Sharing Camino Itinerary: Need Template Suggestions

    I would be very, very careful of making your itinerary public via a blog.
