At 62 thinking of getting my first tattoo, A Tau Cross?
I never had any interest in getting a tattoo... but that changed after a recent run in with cancer made me realise how temporary life can be. I am 65 now and have had it for about 4 months.

What Unexpected item did you find in your pack when you got home?
New Zealand has pretty strict entry policies so we were very careful about checking our bags coming home.. so nothing unexpected there.

Has anyone used DuoLingo to learn Spanish?

Weight loss
On each of my 3 caminos I have lost about 10 kilos.. about a kilo a week... always wondered what would have happened if I had kept on walking! It takes me about 18 months to two years to put it back on again.- kaylfrazer

Recent Bedbug Experiences from O Cebreiro till Santiago?
I have just washed my silk liner with lavender oil in the hopes of repelling bed bugs.. but was disappointed as the smell seemed to completely vanish as it dried and I wished I had tried permethrin instead. I am treating my pack with oil based permethrin so it will be interesting to see if...- kaylfrazer

Just between us girls
Strangely, after a month on the road, with only a little soap and oil of olay and tiny bit of a shampoo bar, my skin and hair were better than usual. I also found that my hair didn't grow as fast.. Usually it needs cutting every 5 - 6 weeks but this time I was able to wait a little longer. I did...- kaylfrazer
