Thank you a lot for the long answers! I really appreciate it
I have shoes that served me well for a long time they still good for walking but they are
not water proof, you say I don't need water proof but if it rains and I think it will they will get wet and will not dry fast and then my foot will suffer - can I get shoes on the trail if I see it's not possible?
walking polls - I remember buying cheap one's for 20 euro each - I usually walk with 2 because it feels like magic
after seeing too many shin splits happaned to other people I think it's a must!
I'll defiently get my stove back - thank you for the advice, I will not make fire. Do they sell gas for traveling stove along the trail?
For the camping Issue, I do care about the feeling of te locals and I appreciate the hospitallity, I don't know how it will be but I'm sure you can find a peacfull spot that will interrupt to no one to pitch your tent - Am I right? or it seems like no one is camping through the
Camino de santiago?!
I even hope to meet people with the same camping spirit...
I'm a memeber of couchsurfing and I've been hosted a lot and also hosted myself, I really in doubt about finding people along the trail but I'll check it out
Food - Is " pasta/rice/ couscous/sardines/soup,lentils ,odd vegetables thrown in" available on the road atleast once a week? are Peanut butter or Halva or Tahini and simple sliced/not sliced bread available along the trail?
writing about walking the camino for free was just imply on my point not litteraly, I understand that farmers and not corporations holding those buisnesses but how much a shower should cost - 1 Euro or 2, basin on my experience I can make a shower with 4.5 litters of water filled in bottles, so the question is - is water so accessible and there is planty of deserted places to make a shower outside?
The other path sounds great but he is little deserted, Ill think about the option though I really want to walk from Le puy.
It's not just Hiking for me, It's a journey which end one year and a half traveling which started with walking the israel national trail, the last stage before I'm going home, I hope to meet people, enjoy and really clear my mind.
the Israel national trail is not so walked as the camino the santiago and the generousity of people who are living near the trail or the people that I encountered is priceless so I'm looking forward for Walking the
Camino De Santiago.
Even now while traveling beutiful Vietnam, the only thing that I'm thinking about is how I will walk the Camino!
Again, sorry for the long massage and thank you very much
