We have looked at routes, and then accommodations. Now let's go to gear. What to bring with you will vary from person to person. There are, of course, some basics such as baggage and shoes.

You've decided on your route. Now let's look at the types of accommodations. The times when I've relayed my Camino experiences to people many have asked about them - particularly what options are there. So let's take a look.

I could have written about it before but, well, I didn't (sheepish look). All that aside, onto adventure! I... Continue Reading →
