Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
I recently saw what they give the pilgrims at SJPP....a single piece of paper that has all the alberques, prices, distances and height elevations... pretty cool and one piece of paper.

Is the Brierley guide available in bookshops in London? You might pick it up there as well.... just a thought.
Buen Camino,
 
I wouldn't count on picking up the Brierley guide at bookshops in London - it's certainly not in Stanfords (though there are a few CSJ guides there) - I don't know what his publishers are doing about distribution this year - it's not on Amazon UK and the Findhorn Press website only operates in Euros (which is rather odd for a community whose base is in Scotland)
 
I did see the Briely guide on The Book Depository web site (UK) recently if that is any help. Cheers, Janet
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Anyone has a list of phrases in Spanish to English for the camino? I saw one yesterday when reading this forum but just can´t find it now!

Buen camino a todos!

PS. I purchased the Brierley guide book here in Stockholm. I´m going to study it before the camino and bring it with me for the camino.
