    LIVE from the Camino Current big wave at beginning of Francés

    Must have. No problems, just used my passport to scrape off the cobwebs and dust layers. Made for the communal shower in the morning. Took a look at 5 or 6 naked women in there all showering together and suddenly I no longer needed a shower. 🤣

    LIVE from the Camino Current big wave at beginning of Francés

    I slept on the floor on a dusty old mattress in a gymnasium in zubiri in September 2016. My least fave night on the Camino.

    Surprising myself!

    I have been aquiring stuff over many years and often for mountainous adventures but with awareness of weight since 2015. (Just in case i went on another camino one day) There are lighter synthetic t shirts (outdoor research, montane around 80g) but I prefer merino t shirts. I wear icebreaker...

    Michelin star restaurant between Sarria and Santiago.

    I appreciate good food too. I decided on my last Camino in May the garlic gambas I had would be my choice for my last meal on earth …… somewhere on the Meseta, forget where…. And the pane con tomate has had me inviting friends over at home to enjoy a replica of that…. I miss it…sigh

    Surprising myself!

    Brilliant! My ordinary travel is also streamlined. I get a lot of pleasure when checking in my 13kg for 7 weeks overseas. It’s a mad obsession. Really though, how good is it not to carry so much stuff with you, not to need coordinating shoes. It’s great just saying oh well I’m wearing my...

    Surprising myself!

    I love this! I’m not the only one! 👏👏👏. I also weigh it all on kitchen scales. I Google lightweight backpacking websites, checking out all the gear. I’ve already bought my camino shoes and a lighter sleeping bag and I wont be going for another 11 months. I get a buzz out of it too. 🤪

    Surprising myself!

    I’m obsessed. With the weight of every hiking purchase. I’m the only one of my friends who can tell you the exact weight in grams in each piece of hiking clothing/equipment that I own. 🤪 My favourite thing to do is explore online all the different Camino routes and then announce it’s the...

    Surprising myself!

    It's got you! I swore in 2015 I was never doing a second one, 8 years later I went again this past May and when I was in Santiago I said, well this is it, Im never coming back again. Famous last words, I'm planning one for next September now. Resistance is futile! lol.

    Halfway SJPDP & Roncesvalles

    I read somewhere that Express Bourricot will pick you up from Orisson and drive you back to Sjpp for the night then back up to Orisson the next morning. Check them out maybe.
