My first was the entire Frances in 2017. The second was the Portugese from Porto in 2019. This September is the Primitivo from Villaviciosa. Each one was special and different in ways, but the constant was being able to walk it with my Dad. We decide based on history, our physical abilities...

Is a great site and easy to use. I've used it for our past two Caminos and now using for our third. They link and are organized by route.
I've seen many a pilgrim where they have a towel around them or in underwear while they clean their clothes. People walk with sticks instead of poles. So maybe Total Reacher isn't possible but you could easily with a fanny pack (or cargo pants) and a water bottle.
I found a good way to tie them to my backpack using the laces so they don't dangle and accidently hit a person or anything else for that matter. You'll find there are a lot of places on your pack with the webbing and carabiner attachments that work.
