    What about “té con leche”?😀

    Take your own tea bags (they don't weigh much). You can ask for hot water - but do offer payment

    One Day Walk out of Santiago ?

    You could take the train to Padrón (it only takes a few minutes) and walk in on the last 20+km of the Portugués.

    Drinking water @hotels

    Spain is a civilised country. Water is safe unless specified otherwise.

    Crinkly Plastic Bags

    Earplugs just don’t cut it for some

    Padron Peppers

    The peregrina who sent the seed bought the original seed in the market in Santiago. Bradypus was therefore growing the sixth or seventh generation of original seeds from Galicia. Not difficult to grow at all. In the UK (East Anglia) I start them off indoors and then grow some out of doors, and...

    Rebekah Scott interview in Church Times

    Alas - one encounters the paywall

    "Working from home" along The Way(s)?

    How wonderful! But you are aware of the Schengen 90 days in every 180 restriction, aren't you?
  8. Harington

    Atonement? Is that what it’s about?

    You're not alone - not by a long way

    UK Camineers

    It's not a question of "may" - alas - but will.

    On the Camino, on this date in May...

    Larrasoaña. 2011. Met people with whom I am still in touch.

    There is truth to the maxim “Be careful what you wish for”

    And an answer to those who pray for the health of the environment

    Snoring

    I have never found earplugs really effective against the mighty snorers. Snores tend to resonate, and bunks shake. There is no solution.

    Phone phobia and speaking foreign languages

    Indeed, join the club! I prepare in the relevant language : "Excuse me but I don't speak Spanish/Italian/whatever well, please be patient." if face to face, eye contact and a self-deprecatory smile.

    Pondering the experiences of refugees

    I so applaud your post. When I set out from Canterbury for Rome I was so very conscious of my expensive new boots and rucksack etc, walking south when so many were struggling to come north through Europe. All I could do was set up a JustGiving page for Refugee Action. I also since felt I must do...

    The White Whisper

    spellcheck, perhaps?
  17. Harington

    Don’t Feed The Dogs

    Just St James in another of his disguises, perhaps?
  18. Harington

    Sign for pilgrims

    British English would not use the word "canteen". But I endorse the word "use", because [a] we use too much plastic, and if you don't use plastic you won't drop it anyway.
  19. Harington

    Free house-sitting

    Thank you! I didn't know you could do that!
