Hi all!
In two days time, I leave the UK for my very first Camino! I'm excited, nervous and expectant for everything the Camino holds! Being my first Camino, is there anything you would suggest to a newbie like me? Things I mustn't forget to take, important things I should know in advance etc.? I've trawled the forums and guide books but I thought it may be helpful to see if there's anything people might suggest that I've not thought about already!
Thanks all,
God bless, Chris
Hi Pauline,I don't have it .
Probably the best advice and nice that you got it in first!Travel light and start slowly. It isn't a race and Santiago isn't going anywhere.
Buen camino
Leave the Marmite at home...you probably won't use it.
Marmite is the brewing industry's 2nd greatest gift to the world...after beer of course! I love Marmite, but the squeezy jar of the stuff I took with me in 2015 remained unopened until I got home from my week's walk to Viana!What's Marmite. I've heard that maybe cows produce it and I don't mean milk!
There's a lovely old woman who runs a family run hostel in cezor menor. (Possibly end of your 3rd day next town after pamplona). She is an angel and X nurse. I suppose you could say she has her own ministry as she looked after my boys blisters. Pure magic and my most memorable stay here. Sore feet 3rd day stay here.
Bon camino
