    What is mine is not yours!

    I am also trying to contribute to the balance of experiences here so I think we agree. It is uncommon but does happen. Having said that the woman in question responded to my question as to why she was upset and did not want anything from me. Not sure why it would be necessary to suggest she may...

    Upset stomachs!

    This app has now crashed 3 times during a longer reply so will keep this short (I don't have proof of this so please feel free to censor as necessary). The restaurant owners rights? Which rights are these? I am appalled that these rights (whatever they are) are held higher that the right to...

    Upset stomachs!

    Censorship is never good imho. Proof is subjective but an opinion should be allowed to be expressed and shared with all. Anything else just holds us back and promotes distrust. We need to take responsibility for our consciousness and our actions. I almost laughed out loud when someone...

    What is mine is not yours!

    I walked last September and met a woman walking solo who had had her mobile phone and 200 euros stolen. Apparently there were quite a few people who had also been robbed in the night without noticing. They suspected someone pretending to be a Pilgrim stayed with them and did a "bulk job"...

    O Cebreiro accommodation

    By the way, I should say that I have the utmost respect for your post and the obvious love therein. I can feel your pain from here. I must say though that I feel it unfair to inflict such a tirade on a poster who could not possibly know your situation. Even if he/she did he would be entitled...

    O Cebreiro accommodation

    The receiving mobile phone in its resident country or area doesn't pay anything to receive calls. This, as far as I know is the same in all developed countries at least.

    Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port: Can I get the "credencial " there?

    I didn't even know people got one before they arrived!

    Is a guide book necessary?

    A full guide book is not necessary as such but is useful when wanting to AVOID places where the masses will stop. Most people on the camino like to plan and walk it within a framework that reminds them of home. I recommend a map with accommodation shown in case of emergency but other than that...

    LIVE from the Camino Is finding accommodation on the Camino Frances, becoming too stressful?

    Yes, your interpretation is correct. :)

    LIVE from the Camino Is finding accommodation on the Camino Frances, becoming too stressful?

    Just don't stress. If walking in summer you will probably want to start a bit early yourself and there are many options. Just avoid the main stages in the Brierley book if the stage looks busy:)

    Espirit du Chemin in SJPdP sold..

    Sjpp is not a problem in terms of accommodation. You may be sent around a bit but should be no problems worst case.

    Water along the way

    Please consider cutting out artificial sweeteners entirely as they are not beneficial to long term healthmto put it mildly!

    Did you have a plan?

    The first time you go you start by planning. Then you realise it is futile and don't do it anymore:) Imho.

    To get a bus or not to get a bus.

    The river route into Burgos is pleasant enough, it just seems to go on for an eternity. Personally I am happy that I was fortunate enough to walk every step with my pack to Fisterra:)

    Have you seen the beautiful Midpoint Marker placed right before Sahagun?

    Like this?

    SJPP to Santiago

    The only good thing about the Brierley book is that you know how and where to avoid the sheep:)
