    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Hi to everyone, I can’t believe how this thread became so popular. Should I be happy or not? No, I don’t think so, because I saw few people writing here that stopped their Camino due to some injuries. I’m the other hand, this thread is helping a lot of people to understand or clarify that the...

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    You are totally right but unfortunately the love to continue walking was stronger than stop a few days in Burgos for recovery. Definitely, it has been another lesson!😉 Thanks

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    My dear, I’m speechless of what you said, but I can’t get upset of it because you don’t even know what does mean the word “failure “ says to a pilgrim!!!!! I really hope you will finish your journey and also the Camino will teach you something....... you need it!

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    If you read my report, I used poles every day except while I was doing the downhill towards Burgos plus I did it too fast without distribution the weight carefully. I received a lot of advice. I wrote already on my first report, THANKS TO EVERYONE for the advice. Without them I couldn’t deal...

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    My dear, the Camino is something that every single person does as he/she wishes. I could think the same of your way how to do the Camino, spending 40 days and walking always, since the first day, with people instead of enjoying the peace of silence walking alone. But I don’t like judging what...

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Oh yes..... definitely I will keep it! It is anyway a big memory of what I did and what I will complete in a short time! I’m already planning to come back next year!!!

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Unfortunately it didn’t works. I’m still injured and the doctor told me that I have phlebitis plus micro fracture, due to too much stress, on my shin splints of both legs!!! I need a long recovery 😢

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Well, it doesn’t happen always. It’s not a rule! Sorry if I say it but I have been training myself since 3 months before the Camino, walking 30 to 40kms at day. I found out that for people like me, that live in a big city as Sydney, the terrain is never or even similar of what the Camino looks...

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Not really! I was walking everyday taking anti inflammatory every morning before start and wishing the day after it would be better. By the way, many albergues has the massage service for pilgrims. I tried once in Los Arcos, but it wasn’t good enough honestly.

    The unpredictable ends of my Camino!

    Hello to everyone, Some of you already know me due to the many questions I asked trying to be ready for the Camino. I have to say thanks to everyone for helping me to prepare all the necessary to put on my backpack (at the end it was only 5.3kg) and all the others things that I needed to know...

    Credenziale

    Hi guys, I have 2 credentials sent by Spanish website here in Sydney. I will start my Camino next Monday the 29th in Pamplona and I would like to know if I need to show the credential to someone for filling up and put a stamp before I start my journey or if I can fill up by myself and ask for...

    Walking 21 days from Pamplona to Santiago. Is it ok?

    Omg guys, I’m so excited!!!! I’m 8 days I will be in Pamplona to start my Camino😍 I am looking the weather in the last couple of days and it doesn’t look like spring time.😔 A lot of rain and low temperatures........ I hope it will stop soon for everybody and me

    Walking 21 days from Pamplona to Santiago. Is it ok?

    Doesn’t matter how fast I will walk....... my dad will walk with me all my journey and he will give the strength and the joy. Looking forward to stay one more time with him again!😉

    Walking 21 days from Pamplona to Santiago. Is it ok?

    This is a golden information. I didn’t know that you need 2 stamps per day in the last 100km. 😱 So what’s about people that have a plan to stop only 3 days from Sarria to Santiago? You suggest to collect al least 3 stamps for day. How can I do it if I will sleep only in one albergue at night...

    Buying a paper map

    Buying a paper map

    Hi there, if you want I have nice files with all the stages from Sjdp to SdC. So you don’t need to carry any paper. The only think is in Italian language but the map show you the way plus all the stages, (name village and so on) that anyone doesn’t need to translate but just read it. I can send...
