    Multipurpose shoes for shower and town?

    I took my hiking boots and a pair of crocs and I found that was all I needed. I hope you have a great Camino. Don’t forget your pebble from your hometown to place at the foot of the Cruz de Ferro. Buen Camino.

    Headlamp or tiny flashlight?

    I took a headlight and masked it with my palm in when I was indoors. Unfortunately some people didn't seem to care, it's not pleasant being woke by a light shining directly into your face as happened a few times with me. Please be considerate. Enjoy your Camino.
