That answers my question on another thread. Understandably, many walkers' reference is the Camino Frances, but then they sometimes forget to put that context in their advice. I'm still far from my Camino, but at this point I intent to avoid the Frances if I can (sounds too crowded for my taste)...
We've been thinking of doing that too, as we really enjoy our coffee in the morning. Added to that that some parts that we're planning on walking are a little remote. Glad to hear it's worth carrying!
I hadn't noticed the distinction. I didn't spend a lot of time in bars, as our hosts always had places to bring us (we got to go to Ons!). Also, I'm told that Galicia is very different from the rest of Spain, perhaps things are different there... I will certainly have to observe others doing it...
