    It's unbelievably hot here!

    Yes you can cope with very hot when the humidity is low. Over here on the East Coast of Aus it’s been raining for weeks with the humidity up in the 80-90 percent and everyone’s winging about the hot summer. However our summer temps have been relatively mild only mid 30’s- very low 30’s Celsius...

    The “new normal” isn’t necessarily bad

    Such a good perspective. Thank you

    What's a Slow Walker?

    I walk at 5.5 k/hr my friend walked at 3k/hr which meant a 30k walk would take me about 6 hrs with a little rest here n there and take her 10 hrs with no rest. Eventually she got poles and that increased her speed to about 4.5k/hr.

    How do you count your caminos?

    When you come from along way off - each time you board that 27 hour flight to Spain you’re going on a Camino. What part who cares? It would be entirely different coming from Spain.

    What does the 'spirit of the camino' mean to you?

    Why? Unless something is causing you harm why the need to let go. The Camino spirit lives on in me. I miss the physical journey but won’t let go of the memories or messages. Hence why I and many of us visit this forum. Maybe I’m missing something in yr post?

    What does the 'spirit of the camino' mean to you?

    So true “the grip is only as tight as you grip it!” I have met people who didn’t get it at all and it was just a walk and I felt so sad for them. I guess they weren’t ready yet to either grip or to be gripped!

    Windows shut

    Hhhhmmmm mosquitoes - without screens. now that’s worthy of another window story thread 😀

    Windows shut

    I think it has more to do with body temperature and how cold people are vs nationality. If you don’t have enough blankets, body fat you want windows closed to be warm, if you don’t have enough oxygen you want windows open to have more air. Don’t think it matters what flag you sleep under.

    Vegetarian and Vegan Camino

    Walking a Camino with extra weight for flyers, 🤔 I think not.

    Is this a sign?

    @Telboyo Here are your clues. "The Camino will Provide" I think " Life always provides, what is so special" .... I have met many people who swear that the Camino changed their life, I don't have that feeling yet... I walked the Camino with real intent, (intent to finish) perhaps too much, but it...

    What to do about a proud tagger (a person who scrawls graffiti)

    Traa perception is an interesting thing.. I have read and re read @Rum comments and can see no scolding there. apart from your harsh words and reaction

    What to do about a proud tagger (a person who scrawls graffiti)

    Thank you for not glorifying this unsociable behaviour. I agree that nearly everyone who graffitis knows its wrong, advising them again does not educate them but reinforces the negative behaviour by drawing others attention to it. This was their aim in the first place - notice me I left my mark/...
