Hej Henrik,
A few things:
Make sure to reserve lodging for your first couple of days (including St. Jean)
The Camino Ninja app is worth a look.
FYI, I have a website with lots of info that might be helpful: LINKY

Greetings Everyone,
I just created a small website called “Camino BootCamp,” a new (FREE) resource designed to help you prepare for your incredible journey along the Camino de Santiago!
Having completed the Camino (The French Way) three times myself, I've gained a little bit of knowledge and...

How is the ventilation on your G4??? I sweat like pig :-) so ventilation is important to me. My Osprey does a great job of keeping my back dry. This new Rab has some ventilation, but not nearly as good as the Osprey.

The side pockets have an opening on the side (might be hard to see in the photos) and are very easy to access and the material is very stretchy.

Balancing weight vs comfort vs size vs cost vs...
