    Descents into Hornillos and Hontanas?

    Refrigerated Med Solution?

    I purchased one of these for my eye drops that needed to be kept cool for 50 days while I was on the Camino and I was there Sept to Oct 2022 so it was hot the first few weeks. Felt the containers of eye drops were cool when I touched them. I have no actual proof that the temp was stable, but...

    eSim purchase in Spain

    Hi has anyone purchased an eSim for your phone (in Spain) and used this separately to your home country sim? Providing your phone is eSim compatible, you won’t have to remove your home numbers physical sim. Just wondering if anyone has done this and the benefits/problems. Thanks

    My impressions after three weeks

    I was very interested to read you met Australians on your pilgrimage. Surely they are Australians living overseas, we haven’t been able to travel internationally for 18 months. Hopefully more cafes and accommodations can survive and reopen soon. Great to read, thank you.

    Starting CF from SJPP on 1 October

    Coming from Melbourne Australia, there is light now, out international borders should open soon. I’m planning September 2022, to walk from SJPP to Santiago, surely that will work. Only two years after my first booking was cancelled.
