    Charging phones/watch/earbuds

    I would like to take it along. Unfortunately I have some legal cases going on (I’m a lawyer - unfortunate for this trip) and I would rather be able to simply look at the watch instead of pulling out my phone to check if an email is important. Although I hope my assistant will contact me via...

    Charging phones/watch/earbuds

    I think that is what I am going to do. Thanks for your input. The watch is a bit of a pain only using the magnetic charging.

    Charging phones/watch/earbuds

    I know what you mean. I was going to return (purchased through Amazon), but think I will keep for travel in general. I’m going out of town for work next week and am going to see if it is worth keeping. Definitely thinking it would be hard to watch over all three devices at once and of course...

    Pack weight question

    I will be walking my first Camino from Porto in October. Your point about the 10% rule is spot on from what I understand. I’m a woman that is 5’2” and 115 pounds and in good shape. If I was the same height and 300 pounds, it is doubtful in that type of shape, 30 pounds would be doable.

    Help with shoes!

    I have purchased the Carbon Z which are so light weight and foldable (but expensive). The only downside is they can’t be carried on a plane as they could be a weapon. I plan on putting my pack in a suitcase and leaving it at a luggage locker in Porto.
