    learn to speak spanish or...

    This past camino, I had walked 3 full days with a Spanish who spoke not a word of English. And I know probably no more than 20 Spanish words. But those were not silent days. Conversation flowed continuously and somehow we understood each other. Whist it was an interesting experience, and I...

    Is there a Catholic Priest on the forum?

    Annie, perhaps you could PM Amando ? He is the Catholic Priest who walked barefoot on the camino this year. Best regards, Rebecca

    Hair

    Love the question ! I am quite particular about the condition of my hair. I carried with me my shampoo and conditioner. I took with me sachets which I would empty into two small bottles, for every day use. I had short hair at the time of the camino. This was intentional as I tended to wash...

    Namaste

    Namaste Caminando Welcome to my part of the world (well, sort of) Trust you are having a great time. India and the camino cannot be more different, in so many ways ! The cultures in Asia are very diverse and yet in some ways, similar. I would be interested to know your thoughts on how...

    Googel StreetView along the Camino Frances

    I think this is really cool ! I can now stroll along the streets of Santiago, especially around the cathedral, and reminisce. I can also see images of the albergues and churches I had passed, visited or stayed in. This is especially helpful as I try to sort through my photos and notes, and...

    Bed Bugs/Clinches?

    I apologise if this sound like a dumb question but is there anything one can do to prevent from being bitten ? Is there a spray of sorts that I can use on myself, and/or on my clothes ? Sorry about your troubles, LostProtographer (dont know ur name). I can appreciate how you feel as I once...

    Any bedbug news this season?

    I will be starting my walk in Oct. Would mosquitoes be much of a problem in October or would this really be just a summer problem ?
