    Portable Charger

    I might’ve missed it on the website-do you need a converter or just an adapter for this charger when traveling in Europe?

    Boots or Hokas for the Central Route

    I live in Hoka Bondis after learning about them here on the forum. I’ve been trying out some Hoka Stinson 6 ATRs for a Portugues Coastal this fall. Walked Central two years ago. I love the Stinson for trekking. The cushiest hiking shoe ever! I feel pretty stable in it. My only complaint, and...

    Trekking poles

    I have another related question. We’re walking the Camino Portugues in September. Flying into Madrid with a long layover to Porto. I planned on getting our sim at the airport. Does that sim work in Spain and Portugal? Are there additional charges to call Portugal while in Spain and vice versa?
