Are my feet meant for walking?
No worries I walked the Camino Frances, The Ingles and had the "aching feet" without blisters for the first few days. It stopped after a week. I am sure that these are just the short muscles in the foot which are simply not trained enough and get fit over time. Buen Camino!- kerdi

3 simple questions: Lock, sleeping bag/liner, PJs
Hi I can only speak for myself I used to carry a sleeping bag liner on my first stage of the first camino. I felt it was useless dead weight in my backpack and left it after a few days in an albergue. It always slipped down in my sleeping bag. Instead of a pajama I used a pair of underpants...- kerdi
