I used this app for my Camino last year. I really liked it. Am going to use it this week when I start the Camino again. I downloaded the maps so I can use offline.
Buen Camino!
So just a year ago on my first Camino I met a wonderful couple from New Zealand and walked with them for much of my journey. Two weeks after our Camino ended, Danny passed away suddenly. His wife Karen, his sister Katherine and I are leaving for a Camino in his memory next week. If you see us...
Just come up with a conservative plan. Some days may be a stretch, other days may be easy. I booked ahead because it was the incentive I needed to get to where I was going, btw, I have Lupus.
Or, if you are a planner like me, and need the motivation to meet your mileage you just book ahead. I am traveling Sarria to Finesterre in June and have booked the whole thing already on booking.com. They have a great phone app. You can cancel 24hrs ahead and for me it takes the worry about...
I thought I'd share this. So, I started the Camino May 30, 2015. Met many wonderful people along the way from all over the world. There were several of us who shared most of the journey together. One couple of my Camino family was from New Zealand. Such fun people, we all finished in Santiago...
Hi Ellen, a couple of us are leaving SJPDP on the 31st to Orisson, 1st Orisson to Roncesvalle. I am 52 year old, 6ft woman with short Platinum blonde hair. Look for me and say hi!
You will be walking to Roncesvalles the same day I will be walking from Orrison to Roncesvalles. I will look for you and you can walk with me. You will be faster and catch me without a doubt. I am a 6ft platinum blonde, short, short hair. We can walk together into Roncesvalles, no worries.
So trying to reduce pack weight. Is there really a need for a pack lock? I bought a pacsaf lock to fix my backpack to my bunk so it doesn't go walkabout when I am out of the auburgue. If I lose my stuff, it will be difficult to find replacement clothes for a 6ft woman in Spain....
OK, my friends, here is the challenge. If my teenage son was going to try to meet me on my Camino, how could I get him to Leon in the simplest manner? He is 16 traveling alone from US.
Hi Josie, I am going to Santiago. I am taking my time and have split up some of the longer days, and am planning to stay every 7th or 8th night in a hotel and take a rest day. So Santiago not until July 8th. It will be such fun! I am staying overnight in Orisson on the 30th, so I will see you on...
Hi Josie, I fly into Madrid on the 29th of May and plan to start my first Camino in St. Jean on the 30th. I will be on of the 6' red heads you see out there!
