Just finished my Camino from St Jean to Finesterre. I actually watched this video for tips and used most of these. The shoe bigger than your regular size saved me! On the Camino I would refer to places you had passed through. Thanks for helping make my Camino more enjoyable

How about paq transfer service. Looks like you lightened your pack on a few days. I always use that service. It's inexpensive and allows you to walk a bit further every day.
Buen Camino

One of the best cuisines in the world is just bread and things, and in Europe's largest producer of fruits and vegetables it is difficult to find them. My God... Americans...
