    What I Learned from Walking Alone

    It all depends. On the CF you can walk alone but you feel seldom alone or lonely, therefore it is an excellent Camino.

    Dogs and treats

    I have no bad feelings towards dogs but I became really scared since I was seriously bitten by a german shepherd dog in Spain. The local doctor gave me the advice to return home as quicly as possible for care in a hospital. Since then walking alone in isolated countryside is rather demanding...

    Weather?

    Epiphany. I had mine what was yours.
