    Is Whatsapp enough on the Primitivo?

    I also use WhatsApp but when landing in Madrid I just stop in to the phone store at the airport and get a sim which they set up for me, simple and inexpensive. I’ve used esim in the past and simply prefer a physical sim. Either way enjoy your Camino!!

    Ready for the Primitivo!

    Please do not worry about the forecast, it will be whatever it is. I walked the Primitivo last year and even in the rain it was an awesome experience. Your pack weight seems to be just fine. I picked up an Orange SIM card at The airport in Madrid and it worked just fine for posting my...
