    What to do about booking rooms...

    For those not knowing of how Covid is affecting our travels on the Camino... The Albergues if open can only take 50% occupancy. Same with the pensiones and hotels. We have been stopping one short of the major destination and varying out day of walking based on what we can book for a good night's...

    SIM cards for non EU citizens doing Camino Frances landing in Paris

    We priced out Orange Sim cards today in Paris and it is 40 Euros for 2 weeks... not ideal. What about buying a SIMCard in Spain once you get to Pamplona??

    Question about power banks

    Your almost a pound Aukey would be great... however, that is almost 454 grams, and we all strive to carry no more than 7-10 kgs including your backpack. Your list of things should be in the twos of... and a lot of quick dry Merino. Two underwear, two shirts, two hiking pants/shorts, one rain...

    Question about power banks

    Hi, smallest and lightest weight is best, but I imagine that your Aukey is about as big as your phone, and you have to carry it... so it's your choice. Almost a pound is 454 grams.... do you really need to have a map? I'm just going to follow everyone ahead of me.... there will be lots of us...

    users of cpap machines

    Which hat looks better?

    It's gotta be a generational thing... I like your 'A' hat... very classic and classy. I'm male and 60 years old. Keep hat A.

    Osprey air mesh ventilator trampoline problem!

    Have a look at the Gregory Katmai 55l backpack... and I like the idea of talking with Osprey. But even with that said, get fitted by a pack fitter, someone that knows them and can see what they are adjusting and how it fits.

    Osprey air mesh ventilator trampoline problem!

    Hey Woody, Were you fitted to an Osprey Backpack? Although the pack brand is excellent quality, it is not a pack for everyone despite all of it's features and benefits. I used to have an old Osprey backpack, and had it fitted, but never used it. It was too large to consider bringing on the...

    CPAP machine and plug ins

    I'm reading the threads and don't see a definitive answer to my question. Do most Albergues have plug ins for a CPAP machine for me at night? What would be a reasonable length of extension cord needed to use for plugging me in at night. I can't sleep without it... and you wouldn't either with...
