    Useful item but hard to justify in your pack

    You and me both! I seriously considered this as well for hot drinks when and where I want them. :-)

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    Sadly I just took a look for the date I would be there and no room at the inn :-( I'll have to get my Hemmingway fix when I get to Pamplona ;-)

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    It is too bad you start 10 days before me! I would be very interested in how your journey goes and what you creatively discovered in the process.

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    I would love to stay there!

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    Again - can I please ask that veterans on the forum not make assumptions about where a person is at or where they are going spiritually or creatively in terms of their Camino. You don't know me or even how I am planning on doing my Camino since I have not shared any of that on this forum. This...

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    I really appreciate the info I get reading these forums about accommodations, best pack, best shoes and - of course - the never ending debate about pack weight ;-) But how I or anyone else chooses to engage in that experience is deeply personal and for all of us, a lot of thought and...

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    So.... Something I would to ask people who think taking a computer or lap top is some how going to take away from the Camino Experience (same with social media) Would you tell a painter to not take his/her sketch pad? Would you tell a writer not to take a note book and pens? I mention this...

    Is a laptop a good idea?

    Can't speak to internet on the Camino (will be doing my first in April) but I can re: taking computer because you and I seem the same "artistically". I use an iPad with keyboard when I am adventuring. Weighs a lot less than lap top and I can do photo and video edits so easily using the touch...

    Front loading backpack versus top loading

    "Wearing my wife's Natural Exhileration" - That is the start of an amazing poem ;-)

    Packing List of a first timer

    I Loved that link! Thanks so much. I am going to try all of them! I won't eat the paper cups though - not unless I am desperate for fibre ;-)

    Packing List of a first timer

    Woo hoo! Coffee is my life blood! Good to hear its easy to source and good!

    Packing List of a first timer

    I'd take a look at your phone because if you have one of the latest iPhones or androids, it can do all the things you want an iPod and and iPad to do and can work as your camera. If you are downloading Camino apps I'd not bother with the guide book. I'd bring razor or two if I knew I would be...

    Backpack recommendations

    I love the frame. Great back support and ventilation. Also the hip and shoulder straps are well designed, padded and very comfortable. Makes carrying weight so much more pleasant. Also love the design for packing gear. Great external and internal pockets. Front access to my stuff as well...

    sleeping bags

    LOL! In that case, nothing that zippers you in. No mummy bags or contoured bags!

    Backpack recommendations

    I have a Deuter as well and that pack is AMAZING. Best. Pack. Ever.
