With just under 100 days until my next trip to the Camino, I thought it would be a good time to break down what's in my pack for May 2022.
A Packing List For A 2022 Camino
Camino de Santiago Android Phone Apps
When it comes to phones on the Camino de Santiago, you have different types of pilgrim. There is the pilgrim who leaves his or her phone off as much as possible so they are not distracted by the constant notifications. There is the tech joy pilgrim who embraces technology.

It’s Christmas, but not as we know it!

The year has been very challenging for many people but because of Covid-19, it means many people are unable to meet like they normally do each year.

Something new?
I'm a little excited. Actually, I'm not quite sure how I feel. This could be the beginning of something new or, then again, it may not be. I will know in a few weeks when I take my first steps. It's no secret that it has become more of a challenge to keep your audience,... Continue Reading →
Purchases for a 2021 Camino

With many of my favourite walking routes within reach from Monday, I have gone all out with a new day-pack, recommended by L over on Somewhereslowly.com. I had... Continue Reading →
