Hello everyone,
I have scoured this board for Camino Madrid information. Thank you to everyone who provided such good details for the trip, it has helped immensely.
I do have a question about food though.
Will finding food and water be an issue on this camino? I have a weak ability to speak Spanish and have food allergies to multiple things (gluten, egg, dairy among others) and believe it will probably be best if I stick to markets where I can purchase my food so I know what is in it. I have trouble enough in the states explaining to waiters the situation, so I can't imagine doing it in another language, and poorly at that! lol.
I do plan to bring some food from home to help in a pinch- but as we know keeping the pack light is important and carrying a lot of food can get heavy quickly, so finding food along the way at markets or stores will be a must for me.
If anyone can lend me a helping hand and tell me of stages where I can stock up I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance!
