    I am "gifting" the Camino for Christmas. Need advice!

    You say you’re new to the family and still learning what everyone likes. I wouldn’t spring the “gift” of a group walking trip overseas on my new father in law — it could land like a lead balloon.

    Having painful blisters unable to walk and have 7 days left. Currently in Santiago

    If your feet are painful and you cannot walk through a town/city or through museums etc., perhaps you’d like to stay a few days at this place: The Little Fox House http://www.thelittlefoxhouse.com/ .

I've read somewhere that you should bring your own stopper, something that fits over/in different sizes of...

    Route markers on routes other than Frances?

    I walked solo from Pamplona to Burgos Oct 2022. The route was well marked all along the way, only two or three times was I concerned, briefly, about whether I was still on the right track -- and then I spotted a yellow arrow or other sign confirming that I was. Are the other routes to...

    Displaying Compostelas

    If you want to preserve and also share your certificates and documents and mementos of your caminos, a nice scrapbook album would be great.
