    Finding SIM card in Barcelona airport Part 2

    I found the Fly and Tech store in the airport. I did not speak to anyone but saw them advertise a SIM card for 45 euros with just a few gigs of data and limited calling. I figured that may be their best plan. I said forget it. The next morning I went to Vodafone and got a far better deal. Here...

    Walking in early November

    I will be walking on the CP and should reach the Variante the first few days of November. Just wondering if anyone has walked that time of year. Are albergues open?

    My Experience on the Aragones Camino: Quiet and Memorable

    I walked the Aragones/Frances and started about October 21st or so and finished about December 5 or 6. I had thought about posting during this camino but I changed my mind the first night.

    Getting FROM St. Jean to Roncesvillas.

    A little twist. I have friends walking from Le Puy. They were going to meet me in Somport but were held up and cannot meet me. They will arrive in St. Jean on or about October 27th. We checked on Rome to Rio and there was nothing that would work. The only bus they have listed is from Valcarlos...

    My packing list

    I always like to read what other people pack because everyone is different and things that are important to one person are completely irrelevant to another. I marvel at how much some people spend and I also I enjoy reading about how much some people know about the latest Camino gear. So here is...
