    Walking without gadgets.

    My two cents worth... I think Camino is deeply personal experience... If lack of gadgets makes you enjoy it more than more power to you. My personal Camino experience was greatly enhanced because I carried a smartphone. I wish I took even more photos and videos and wrote even lengthier blog...

    A reason to walk the Camino
