Hello Camino Friends!
I fly out on Tuesday, and I think I have it all just about settled.
I'm just a hair under 20 pounds (9kg). I weight 200 pounds (90.7kg), so I meet the 10% recommendation. However, I am still wanting to lighten my load. Any sugestions?
Also, these are the things in my bag and does not consider the things that I will have on my body.
Things I am debating about getting rid of or swapping out:
Here is my packing list on Google Sheets, with my own commentary.

Things I am debating about getting rid of or swapping out:
- Cabela mini messenger bag (since I'll have an altus packable back pack).
- Rain Jacket becuase I didn't use it last time even in the rain. I feel like I could buy an Altus backpacking one over in Spain if I decide I need one.
- Sleeping Sheet becuase I only used it once, maybe twice, last time. I mostly slept in either my clothes if it was cool, requested a blanket or just in my undies. Do I really need this thing?
- Teva Trekking Sandals to a pair of minimalist outdoor sandals that weight about 3-4 times less. I want to take the Teva hiking sandals with me only becuase I used pair of these last time for about half the Camino and mailed my shoes to SdC. I could also just buy something while over in Spain if need be. I keep going back and fourth on this one.
- Drop my food weight (I have 2 lbs planned, but will probably only cary at most one pound).
