We found the Coastal route much more pleasant to walk but neither route super populated with pilgrims. We did tend to meet them in towns or when we stopped to eat and about halfway formed a small pod which was nice. Did have to benefit of walking with my spouse so I wasn't alone. Hope you find a...
My husband had screws and also a titanium rod from ankle to knee. It hurt him on descents. We used compression leggings at night and it was a game changer for recovery
Use WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger or FaceTime (voice only) for calls. Add your country code to your phone# and any others you want to have calls with while traveling. Start a text group at home so everyone is on same thread.
Then turn off your normal esim on your flight over.
On cellular when...
I googled saris Spain baby shops and found several. You could try to contact them. This one had photos of items inside the shop and also outside. I’m not sure you’ll find a sport stroller but it looks like there maybe be a stroller of some sort in the window far left.

This is a really interesting comment, and it resonates with me. I can imaging even people having walked the same Camino in different families would share this experience. Each group binds for a reason.
I think meeting you in Santiago is a decent compromise. I will say that you’ll possibly want to spend some time (several hours) in the square and possibly some time the next day welcoming other people you’ve met along your walk. It’s not really something you can anticipate or plan how you’ll...
That’s how it works with single sim phones for sure. Now with the dual sims you can actually have two at once!! The rain isn’t a physical sim, so it leaves a slot open for whatever one you buy. It’s awesome for travel or if you only want to carry one phone for personal and business but have it...
Use the recommendation above regarding E-sim for the US. We specifically got dual sim for exactly the reason of traveling. E sim is just a sim that your phone company will scan and set up for your phone, nothing will be obvious to you. You would only lose data you saved to your SIM card. Then...
This for some isn’t any different than going to xyz National parks, or traveling to every continent. For some it’s a bucket list, for others this “Way” may be the only way they would accomplish walking 100km. Let’s not disparage those that can accomplish this journey.
We walked with two people who part camped and part stayed in albuergues. They usually found down by a river spots or other little places that were available. There are super lightweight tents you could take. I would suggest not cooking, rather eating at bars and places along they way and having...
I love the suggestion to remember to wash your hands, it was also part of protocol suggested for COVID, and equally important. I will still wear my mask in indoor situation in crowded places. But understand and respect that it’s people’s choice. Since I am vaccinated, my mental mantra is “trust...
