I take it my post wasn't about luxury.So much for trying to be social.This is the luxury item thread. Kinda hard to find in the Equipment forum.
Smart Packing and Unexpected Backpack Items
There are so many pack stores along the way and the prices are great. You may carry as much or as little as you care to. Some people do it with nothing, some carry more, some carry less. After we arrived last year I realized I could have come with nothing and just purchased what I needed, starting in Ste Jean. That being said, I brought a jet boil with a coffee press. Very light weight and we saved a bundle not buying coffee at every little café. We did however miss some of the camaraderie that goes along with frequent stops, so even that is a trade off. Make your call and then if you need something it will be available and if you don't need it you may either leave it or post it forward to Ivar.As we get ready for our first Camino (note I said "first" - don't tell my husband that!) I'm wondering if any of you pack what I would call luxury items. You could live without it, but it would be oh so comforting to bring it despite the weight. Or another thought would be, what did you miss most or wish you had brought? I'm thinking my electric toothbrush. Mary (and Charlie)
Not what I would bring, but who am I to judge? I brought a fifth of bourbon!4 pairs of shoes ! I figured my feet are most important to keep happy during the Camino. It paid off. Not one blister
I'm wondering if any of you pack what I would call luxury items.
And good mousturizer for my face
