    In defense of early risers

    early birds Janet, what you describe as your habit, however, is a very respectful and nice way of treating others who do not get up so early. From our experience, many people had no problem ringing an alarm at 5:30 a.m., jumping out of bed, switching on the lights in the entire dorm and...

    Weather in June

    So what's the weather like on the camino right about now? And what are the forecasts for the upcoming month? We are arriving at Roncesvalles on June 4, and will be en route for three weeks (biking). The daytime weather isn't that much of a concern, as we have decided to travel 2 hours in the...

    Sorry, but...Where do women pee on the camino...?

    ha! Yeah, the reaction my end was "What do you need that for?" Well.... um.... errr...... Let me see.... :D

    Sorry, but...Where do women pee on the camino...?

    Ha! I am seriously considering getting one of those. I have looked at all three websites and am deciding between two. Depending on how quickly they can delivery to CZ. That would actually be a really clever thing to have on any occasion. Public toilets in this country tend to be a nightmare, so...

    Cheapskate Camino

    Credenciales 2009 +

    compostella and all I am rather confused about this part. My parents walked the camino some years ago. They had their credential, which they kept as a lovely souvenir full of stamps, but I don't think they received a compostella. My father probably wouldn't be able to, as I'm sure he didn't...

    Cheapskate Camino

    Whew! I sure am glad I don't live in the UK sometimes! It is so expensive!!!! My boyfriend and I bought superlight sleeping bags (they weigh less than 1 kg) on the internet from some Italian brand, and they cost the equivalent of about 25 pounds. Our super light tent (under 2 kg) cost about 30...

    Food?

    Mmm, mouthwatering I'm not that mad about steak, so I won't be missing that much. I am, however, really keen on bread and cheese and veggies and olives... and then the seafood. Yes indeed, it will be a fantasy for my palate! :P And wine, oh my! Despite the fact that I am from the home of beer...

    Food?

    Yummy in my tummy I'm actually really looking forward to the food, or rather the fact that there will not be strict hours for meals, and the food will be different. I'm a fanatical cook, but I guess I won't be exercising that much, unless occasionally at an albergue :-) But chorizo! And ham...

    Forum Badge vote

    badge I like the blue and gold, but on the contrary, I prefer the "stylised" shell to the realistic looking one. How would you make it look realistic on a badge anyways?

    Atheism on the Camino

    Wow The several stories from the Camino that others have posted here have served to increase my excitement even more. Although we are biking, which is probably a lot easier than walking, I am still looking forward to the Camino as an essential experience. Our reasons are certainly not...

    Distances between hostels

    Wow!! Silly: godesalco.com is fantastic!!! thanks for the superb tip! The generated profile is really important to us, as we are biking and it's good to know what kind of altitudes we have to overcome on any given day. Thanks a million!

    Camping, tents, etc

    :-) Dobry den. You are probably from the Czech Republic. We are wondering about the same thing as you are: whether there is available camping on the route... I found a website with some campgrounds, and "wild" camping is also possible in certain places. When are you going? We are biking in June.

    Camping on the Camino

    Well, we are leaving for Spain in less than two months. We are biking. I must admit I haven't done much training yet, there has been little time. Anyways, from what we have heard and read, pilgrims on foot have absolute priority over pilgrims on bikes at the albergues. Because we are going in...

    Where to aquire the Credential

    Credential Then it must have been some old or incorrect information. In any case thanks, for all the replies, that has basically solved my only worry. Now I just have to plan the getting there and back (it is quite a way from Prague), and off we go!

    Where to aquire the Credential

    Hi! I have a question regarding getting credentials at Roncesvalles. I read somewhere (and I can't find it anymore) that they require a "letter of introduction" from your local parish priest or some other competent person. My boyfriend and I are not religious, so I would like to know who I...
