    Item left behind in Paris - advice?

    Hello all, I need a bit of advice on how to retrieve an item (my husbands e-reader) that got left behind in Paris. The hotel is being less than helpful so I need to figure how to get it from the hotel to Santiago. Normally, I’d send pre-paid envelope but because it’s Spain and France - I’m at a...

    Plantar Fasciitis

    Dealing with PF on the Camino Francés now. A lovely, bespectacled man named Hermon (a kinesiologist who was working in the SJPDP pilgrims office) taped my arch up in Orisson and cut a hole in the heel of my insole (for heel pain from a spur most likely). He may have single handedly saved my...

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    Are you Linda from Toronto? If so, we’re both at Orisson! If not, then there’s at least one other Linda on the trail with you 😉

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    So far (Orisson), no crowds. Really happy we decided to split the first stage into two days. The refuge here is nice.

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    This week has been and will continue to be HOT! It’s in the neighborhood of 30 Celsius. We’re delaying a little bit this morning to mail some of our heavier clothing back home. So far, really grateful we brought silk bag liners and small camp blankets. Wish I had a pillowcase though. Glad...

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    We’re on the train to SJPDP now. Start the Camino tomorrow- hoping to hear back from Orisson that we have beds, but not holding out much hope of that. It is what it is. No reservations at SJPDP either, we’ll see how much that bites us in the arse LOL. You’ll know it’s us on the path by our...

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    We're arriving in SJPDP on the 23rd and starting on the 24th. I desperately tried to avoid starting on a Monday...darnit. Alas.

    Who else is walking late June through July?

    Hello! My husband and I will start from SJPDP the last week of June, is anyone else planning on that time frame? Any tips or advice for walking in July?

    Sexism in outdoor clothing

    Yes, but don't you miss having pockets?!

    We always pick the wrong line...Frances in July.

    Thank you for the advice! And I'm heartened to hear that it may not be as crowded as we feared.

    Class of 2019

    My husband and I are planning our first Camino (CF) for the July time frame (celebrating his birthday and our anniversary on the Camino!) Not looking forward to the crowds, but you work with what you've got. We're doing this as part of a major life and career transition as a way to release what...

    We always pick the wrong line...Frances in July.

    Hi there! I'm Jennifer. My husband and I are doing the Frances (our first of hopefully, many future caminos) in July (or possibly in very late June) because we always seem to pick the worst time to do things LOL. We'll be headed out from San Diego, California and probably flying into Paris...
