    Picking grapes from vineyards along the way

    Taking property without the owner's consent is theft, any way we want to dice it. Some farmers may not have a problem with it, others would. Do the math: approx 500,000 pilgrims per year. Say 1 in 10 picks a bunch of grapes, that is 50,000 bunches (at least, it could be much more). The loss does...

    RETHINK walking the Frances

    I love this, best post I have seen in a while. We really do still have Chicken Littles around alarming people over their short sightedness and lack of planning 😂

    Average daily expenses?

    I think you nailed the response! Straight, to the point and very accurate.

    US ATM cards not working

    Never had an issue. Sounds to me more like an issue with not giving your bank a "travel advisory"

    Safety for pre-dawn starts on the Camino Frances

    Hahaha, for sure you may not make it to the door 😂😂😂

    Not what I expected!

    A few things stand out, but I will only mention two. First, the friendliness of not only our hosts, the Spanish people along the countryside, but I guess more importantly our fellow perigrinos. The Camino does draw people together, the magic of the Camino. Even the most reserved introvert "opens...

    Lost & Found Lost Apple Watch Alto Perdon

    You are taking it in good speed my Camino friend. I hope it works out for you and you are reunited, long shot, but miracles do happen on the Camino. Am looking forward to that post! Buen Camino!

    SJPP to Santiago in 30 days?

    Welcome to the forum Tommycamino. Anything is possible on the camino. A resourceful tool could be found here https://godesalco.com/plan/frances. You can "play" around with daily schedules and distances, bearing in mind that each day is different and your "plan" may not actually work the way you...

    Ride Share Offer from Pamplona to SJPP on May 1, 2022

    I did my CF Sep 2017 with wife and son; we did exactly the same arriving in SJPDP from Pamplona via shared taxi (a 12 seater mini van) early enough (late afternoon) to "tour" the town, get our Credenciales at pilgrims' office and in time for our first perergrino dinner that night at our...

    New member - leaving in late March 2022

    Welcome to the "club". I know you have heard this phrase too often before but I will repeat that "it will be a life changing experience". It thought me patience and humiliy; how to appreciate the simple things in life and that less is really more. Work has prevented you and many of us from...

    Introduction

    Welcome to the forum Pam. I was 63yrs old when I did the first Camino (Frances). I have not done any others and had planned to do Frances again last year, but Covid dashed those plans. I had rescheduled for 2021, but this seems unlikely. So it will now be 2022 at 68 yrs. Whatever you choose...

    6 Years Already!

    Creeping up on four years myself. Hard to believe indeed. Was planning on "taking a walk" this year. Perhaps I will in 2022, will see. Quien sabe?

    The things I have grown to appreciate about this forum

    I have noticed that as well. Quite a number of the "regulars" are not posting anymore and I was wondering if something happened to them. I hope that we are still very much here.

    Poll Where do you come from?

    Belize, was mother nature's best kept secret until it was "rediscovered" by tourists :cool:

    Bedbugs

    I did the Camino Frances in September 2017 from St Jean to Santiago and have/had plans for 2021 again. During that month I stayed at all the different types of albergues (private, municipal, religious/monasteries, donativos etc. including one night in a hotel room) to get the full experience. I...
