    How to get a Compostela without the crazy 100 k

    Personally I’m a big fan of the last 100k. When you see the huge numbers of genuine pilgrims experiencing the changing grace of the Camino on their lives in 5 days, just as much as anyone can do in 35 days on longer routes. The Camino is personal to each of us and we should never judge someone...

    Things I'd bring, who cares about the weight

    How do you secure your backpack from theft as checked luggage.

    Travelling in two weeks and will be definitely wrapping the pack in cling film. Simple and effective. Would prefer to take it on board myself but the airline has made new rules with added costs…short single flight from Dublin, what can go wrong 😥

    Best all purpose soap

    I too use a shampoo bar for all possible uses while on Camino. Previously discovered an organic one on scenta.ie and it’s great, long lasting and made using argon oil. Even shave with it. Travels light!

    Thinking of walking Camino Frances in summer 2021... in need of advice

    If I was an interviewer and you said you were going to do El Camino, I would be impressed. It is not exactly a holiday and says more about your commitment and you bringing positive change to your life and to your career. My very biased opinion of course...good luck with any decision you make and...
