    FICS Forum: Why Change the 100 km. rule to 300 km.?

    Albergue Burgos March 22 2016

    I got them in Orisson last year coming all the way from Le Puy en Velay. After washing everything 3x I gave up..bit I'd already walked 500 miles. Just keep washing and leave your pack outside so you don't leave critters at the other alberques. Be responsible. .that's the ethical thing to do...

    FICS Forum: Why Change the 100 km. rule to 300 km.?

    I cried when I entered Santiago from SJPP. I walked from Le Puy en Velay to SJPP last year and will finish in Santiago the end of May. It truely is a emotional journey that changes your being. I'm sure I will cry again.

    Good Things That Happen On the Camino

    I lost my passport in Le Puy en Velay on the way/camino to Santiago de Compostela on Sunday and didn't realize it until Tuesday. The donativo gite hospitalero at Relais du Pelerin St Jacques drove and met me in Monistrol-d'Allier to return it to me. Awesome gite when I was there..very...

    Finishing the Le Puy route in SJPP -- logistics/options? extra days?

    I took Ryanair to Marrakech for a couple of days...souks fun. (Happiest people I've ever seen on the planet). If coming from the states get on Eurorail or cheap airline and visit Budapest, Prague or any of the other places we studied in history. It helps to reimmerse and see other cultures.

    Comment by 'compliance51' in media '"Beyond The Way" Trailer'

    Thank you Ivar...beautiful and peaceful. Reminds me to stay positive. Loved the early morning walks stopping for cafe con leche and gently waking up as I walked. Felt like a United Nations meeting so many from everywhere. Will begin Le Puy 6-15 to SDC.

    Yes I think all of the pilgrims in May-13 got caught off guard with the weather..but we survived and had the time of our lives.

    What causes people to stop their caminos?

    I was one of those who watched The Way but planned to arrive after the snow melted. Not a lot of physical prep but this forum gave me immense prep. I started and finished 500 miles and sang "I would walk 500 miles" the whole way. It changed my life and next year Le Puy. At 58 it has been the...

    Taxi or bus bypass around Leon

    The walk out of Leon is actually quite nice..several cafes for a cafe con leche and pan. I think Leon is quite nice..stayed there for several days waiting for my son to meet me there from the States. The bus outside of the city is across from the Mcdonalds coming from The Parador Hostal San...

    Life after the Camino..
