Is their an alternative to wild camping for those that have to wild camp out of necessity? Do certain albergue allow a person to pitch a tent outside rather than sleep inside.
My current plans are to carry a light swag, and were to cook in advance once a day, over a lightweight stove, all my meals. I am intending to walk all day, with an aim at 15-20 miles per day, depending on terrain.
Good news is that meds are super inexpensive in Spain, and often sold OTC, even if they really should require a prescription. This being said, olives are a common apetiser, bar food. Be forewarned. Pred is readily available, no questions asked, if that helps. FYI, not knowing anything about allergies, in May, on the Primitivo, I could smell the honey from the plants where it is harvested.I am not the sort of person who causes stirs. I prefer to just get on with my own thing and not bother other people.
Thanks for the picnic area suggestion. Thats kind of what im after. Im not against stealthing the camps, but a swag is even less noticeable than a tent, but stands out in other ways. Im sure some aussies will spot it along the way.
@Viranani, I was hoping that their would be less of them running across the Primitivo, and with the Norte being very coastal, that the same would hold true to some extent there. I was advised to avoid autumn, summer is probably a bad idea too, and now spring. So many things conspiring against me.
I will still walk in April. I will avoid as best i can, if not a mask maybe could be worn in bad areas, maybe a full face one, it would certainly open up points of conversation.
But seriously im damned if i will not go. I will probably pack double the medication now. I have options from that side that would make it do-able, but i would need to complete in 25 days or so (the max i like to take corticosteroids for). Thats the worst case scenario, but if taking 8 little tablets (on a step down regime) allowed me to complete then so be it.
my budget for the walking part of the trip is unlikely to be much beyond 1000 euro
..., accept that you may need to beg, ...
I agree, just staying away from the cafe con leche will help.I don't think he will need to beg. 1000 Euro divided by 40 days for example results in 25 Euro per day. Not luxury, but completely doable. Buen Camino, SY
