    Finances on Camino frances

    I think it was the part before going into burgos where I couldnt find a cash machine for a day or 4? Good to top up when you have the chance.

    Regrets of a pilgrim

    Thank you, its just the beginning. I have work to do still. And I thank all of you pilgrims for being such an inspiration. It is you that make these changes possible, not the gravel on the roads ahead.

    Regrets of a pilgrim

    I’m not sure. I tried to be nice and helped where I could. Now I have to walk again because instead of walking my camino I turned into a nurse, shrink, packing mule and conflict mediator. And I really needed some time for myself...... I made a mess somehow. Well actually no, I have no regrets ❤️

    I’m kind of starting to feel sorry about flies. Born as a magot and grown up hated by even their own reflection. ;)

    Having a hard time

    Hi guys! Thank you so much for all your support and thoughts. It gave me a lot to think about, I did and acted upon things. Most important of all, I realised thanks to you, I am still on the camino. It isnt gone the day you get home at all. Seeing that was a great feeling, like meeting friends...

    The waterbottle mystery

    I just read that somewhere else. Because many houses use natural stone that will decolor when a dog pees against it. They like the bottles so instead of hitting the wall they hit the bottle that then can be cleaned or replaced. Good you didnt drink the water pilgrim ;) Another story I read is...

    The waterbottle mystery

    Some definatly looked beyond expiration date :) I dont think cats care a lot about bottles standing arround. Then again I have a dog so I wouldnt know. My dog would love them for all the wrong reasons ;)

    The waterbottle mystery

    A trivial question maybe but all along the way there where bottles standing in front of houses and garages. Some were full, some were not. Why? :)
