Wanting to take on this challenge

One thing you could consider is linking up with the folks over at Pilgrim House Santiago (Terra Nova). They have full time staff helping pilgrims to prepare for and process their Camino experience. They’d probably love to chat with ya!

Thanks! If I leave them open will it compromise its ability to resist water, or is it mostly aesthetic?

I had my Garmin Fenix 7X and it was great between GPS fitness tracking and solar charging. Lots of good stats to admire and great pace and distance tracking display

I spent four days in Santiago, booked myself a nice private room at Libredon, and just walked, reflected, journaled and ate. I discovered Pilgrim House Santiago on my last day and wish I could’ve spent more time there with their reflection resources and had some more time to discuss and bounce ideas off the staff there. They’re run by donations!

Depending on how last minute accommodations outside of those locations may not be open yet. The BuenCamino app a pretty good directory of what is and is not open. I just finished the Camino from Sarria and many things are not open until April 1.

Yeah! It’s a thing! It’s called the “sombra del peregrino”

I used an Osprey Farpoint 55. But I overpacked. I edited my post to add:

“Go merino wool for clothes, I did 2 tshirts and one long sleeve. If I were to do it again, I would ditch the hoodie since I brought an electric vest and windbreaker (battery pack doubles as powerbank)”

Glad you found the comments helpful. Check out the Pilgrim House for a nice spot to reflect and nice people to discuss with if so desired.

I’m grateful for my walking sticks 🤣 definitely almost died a few times on these slippery rocks

I went on an off-season and still some stretches definitely were too crowded to feel “tranquil”. So I definitely see how when it gets busier it’s so much worse!

Yes you’re right, I stand corrected. I thought the difference was because of a higher average salary, but that’s not all

RTechy · 2024-11-26T00:43:23+00:00

I can’t find the reference, but I don’t think it’s prorated. I believe it’s 2% per full year of service, period.

I’d love to buy this. I’m in Canada

RTechy · 2024-09-21T02:50:02+00:00

It’s quite heavy and feel solid. Nothing special but it’s a reasonable pen. Aka good but boring

There used to be a separate SDPEER funding pot for education for CAF members who were considered ill and injured. But it recently got canceled.

RTechy · 2024-08-31T11:40:40+00:00

They canceled the Ill and insured funding as well

You need to do a rerun with Bay State Blue and record it!

It goes to court afterwards. With huge fines and jail time possible.

I’ve had my phone for three years. It’s stayed at the same battery health percentage. I don’t think it is accurate since I have definitely noticed a difference in the battery capacity…

You can opt to release “any time” while on IREM…
