    The Camino does NOT start in StJpdP - discuss

    This is prolly the best answer I've read so far...

    My first camino with (a) kid(s)--> need help!

    Hey moss7, Vultures lurk around even if your intentions are good. This forum is like the Lion's den, only a fortitude of a Daniel can withstand it... LOL... kidding aside this is a place of good resources about the Camino... Ultreia!

    My first camino with (a) kid(s)--> need help!

    Last 2017, I saw a family of 4 i think on the way to Zubiri, kids were probably 2 & 5 yrs old. The 2-yr old was on a stroller but the 5-yr old was on a small bike. Dont know how far they went but it was quite interesting. But I agree with @Marbe2 this might not be the of times to walk with kids...

    rejected US Cellphone for Booking Pamplona Taxi on Line

    technically, it does matter. When your calls are routed to a different PLMN, carriers might charge each other tolls especially when they use gateway exchanges. Even newer protocols like SIP or VoIP which uses less resources can still charge cheaper rates but if there are roaming agreements...

    rejected US Cellphone for Booking Pamplona Taxi on Line

    Hi, pls check with verizon if data roaming is allowed for your phone and if it is, if its capped already meaning you reached your data limit for the month. if clearly you have internet right now, then clear history and cache of your browser or reset the settings for default for your browser. if...

    Relics Geek's Lament

    hehehe... i like the sarcasm... i see that you are a very good man who respect other person's religious faith.... I can also see that your mother is very proud on how you grown up to the man that you are...... anyway the older the relic is, the chances of it being authentic is higher. Throughout...

    Relics Geek's Lament

    I like the Relics topic, it was one of the primary reasons why I walked the Camino in 2017. As a Roman Catholic, I would go and pray and venerate the relics of the Saints. Speaking of which, Is there any confirmation that St. Andrew's bones and a piece of a fragment of the True Cross are in...

    Tips for couple of youngters doing the camino Frances in March/April

    We met a Dutch kid in 2017 who walked with another young lady who has a pet donkey. They would actually politely ask private land owners if they could camp in their properties with their donkey. Sometimes they would stay in donativos albergues where we met him. We would chip-in a little bit more...

    Walking the Camino Frances multiple times - why?

    simply put - because we love the camino. this might sound very cheesy but when asked why do I love my wife, I dont have a response. If I say it's her eyes or her nose or the way she walks then it's just a part of it. Even the answer - I love everything about her would not probably be enough. The...

    Camino Snobs

    what whole 800km lol? My friend lives in Leon so I guess she only did the the Cami and no "no" because it has to be 800km? I believe it's not the distance, it's the heart and the spirit.

    Is anyone doing the Camino without any specific purpose

    i'm gonna go on a totally different route here. Anybody who asks me about doing the Camino, I told them that the first thing to do is to ask themselves "why are you doing the camino?" you must have a reason. Whether you are searching for a reason when you get to the Camino or to honor someone...

    the desire to do it could be the reason..

    The Camino does NOT start in StJpdP - discuss

    i may get some flack on this... but only the people who really knows the essence of why the medieval people walked the camino will realize that there is no traditional starting point per se... as cheesy as it is (but i believe there is some truth to it), The Camino starts the moment you stepped...

    SJPP is Packed with Pilgrims.

    starting in Oct in SJdPP i think is the best if you dont mind the occassional 32F in Galicia w/ frost on the ground but i would rather walk in the cold than heat of the summer.

    Quick “The Way” synopses (and tribute)

    I believe it was labeled as "Hollywood" because the script is worthy of hollywood label, it was very entertaining, there's some sort of exaggeration, some of the stuff are not real or uncamino-like, Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez are top-tier Hollywood stars but other than that, you are right...

    Quick “The Way” synopses (and tribute)

    I watch "Footprints: The path of your Life" probably at least twice a month. However, it's only in Netflix. There's prolly a chance most have not heard of this documentary. For me it's the "Real Pilgrimage Camino movie".

    Footprints: The Path of Your Life movie

    Overwrought - in a state of excitement or anxiety?
