    Ten days on the camino, but where to start?

    Would you elaborate by what you mean Suffering the Sarria to Santiago experience? I’m days away from Sarria🥴

    Ya’ll! I feel so grateful for the advice given. I sent my world travel bags to Ivar, I bought a 30 liter pack (I could have gone smaller and was looking for one smaller, but I had to go with what was available.), and adjusted my attitude to one of openness and am having an absolute dynamic and...

    😎 My pack only sees variations of hues of black: The international color of international travelers. If it were you would you wait until SJPP to buy a small pack or purchase it in Barcelona? I have one extra day in SJPP since I waited too long to make a reservation for the second day on the...

    Needs, wants & desires

    Arriving in Barcelona from Amman, buying a small hiking pack in the city (or waiting until I get to St. Jean?), shipping all my extras to Ivar and taking the train to France. I am so looking forward to carrying the minimum for a few weeks.

    Do you have a favorite App?

    Thank you for that Thanks for that - it's an ever present assessment for certain. I would only really be bummed out if I lost my passport, phone and credit card and, not that I want it to happen, if I were to lose all my stuff it's just not that big a deal. The extra pack I carry has a blender...

    Widespread Panic has a song that I love called Traveling Light and it's one of mottos - I mean if I could get what I need into a fanny pack I would do it! If your Lovely carries a 22L then that seems good enough for me. I really, really appreciate your advice.

    Super advice, thank you.

    Thanks to you for your advice that is exactly what I am going to do. I am seriously anti-schlepp.

    Needs, wants & desires

    I'm telling you what, thank you - all of you are singing out of the same song book and I just have to get on the right page - I am not going to hire anyone and will send my bags to Ivar. Thank you for your thoughtful response. It really is interesting for me to recognize that I'm in the realm...

    Needs, wants & desires

    I have been on the road for a little over two years and I am good about keeping my load light (but not hiking light) so I hadn't opened to the idea of buying a day pack, but that seems to be what may work best. Before I asked the questions on this thread I thought I would need a company to...

    Thank you - I appreciate you taking the time. Excellent!

    Needs, wants & desires

    Thank you so much for such a nice reply. The consensus is to dump any idea of an agency and baggage haul and just mail my bags and do the rest myself with a day pack. You say that from October 1 the route will be busy and to get set until Pamplona, which I will do ASAP-ish, but then what do...

    Needs, wants & desires

    Thank you for that. After reading the comments it seems like what I think I need may just be what I think I want and I don't know what I want because I don't understand my needs. Is that clear as mud? A guidebook may be in order. Thanks again

    Needs, wants & desires

    Thank you Robo for taking the time to answer. It seems to me that there would be no problem mailing my "World Tour" bag from Spain since I've loosely decided that I will arrive in Madrid before the Camino. This may fall into the Dumbest Question Ever Category and here goes: Where am I sending...

    Needs, wants & desires

    I don't know about you, but this is what happens to me: I stumble towards my goal only after realizing a bunch of people before me have already stumbled, braced themselves, dusted off and dashed to the same goal: Hiking the Camino from SJPP. I've watched videos (excellent ones at that), found...
