    July-Aug 2011; is a sleeping mat required?

    I had a mat of the oldfashioned and cheap (3 €) foam type, that I had cut to be 1000 mm x 400 mm (Almost haff of it was cut off). Big enough to sleep on if necessary. I used it frequently to sit on (thistles!) or to lay and rest on my siesta. It was still a bit big albeit almost zero weight, and...

    The Camino seems busy ...

    It's an article from an old version of santiago.today.com, I think? I found it by googling for "Camino de Santiago" + statistics. I've been googling so much for camino-info the last days, so I look like this :shock: Anywy, I've not decided on which way to go yet, but it seems that as I...

    The Camino seems busy ...

    What I was looking for... Saludos a todos! Finally! I've been looking for information on the jacobeo... problem is there are soooo many webpages about it that it's hard to find specific info. What I needed was some statistics, and in the old version of your page I found this...
