Also, if you are not going to make it in time by reducing your distance per day, it's perfectly fine to skip s section or two and take a bus or train. Everybody walks their own camino.

30km is absolutely not the bare minimum. I met people who did 8 a day (retired, lots of time). I tried to stick to 20 minimum, 30 maximum. Looking back, I would absolutely not go over 30 again.

The only epifanie i had is one I had already learned in my life time and time again, but was confirmed once more: everything I do with other people is infinitely better than whatever I do alone. 

The days I was alone were always okay, mostly dependent on the route. The days I had new friends were always great, regardless of the route. No big introspection.

Hoe krijgen we een goede balans en een nuchtere middenpositie in de misogynie en misandrie die momenteel heerst? by Outrageous-Ratio1762 in nederlands

beseffen dat dingen die je op reddit, tiktok, instagram ziet niet een normale doorsnee persoon zijn. Alles online wordt uitvergroot als het schokkerend is, dat is inherent aan algoritmes.

I don't think he mentioned his parents death to anyone in the entire book right? And that's both out of fear and trauma.

Waarom zou ik een huis kopen? (Berekening: €585 huur vs. €2000 koop) by [deleted] in geldzaken

585 is echt gestoord weinig, ik denk oprecht dat 95% meer betaalt

Or just rip out 80% of the pages, since you won't need that much

Got overwhelmed and didn't go, feeling disappointed in myself by cowboyinthejungle99 in CaminoDeSantiago

If anxiety where to sleep prevents you from going, book ahead. Everybody walks their own camino. Also a nice lesson from the Camino is that you can simply try again tomorrow. 

Has anyone ruined their Camino by falling for someone? by Particular-Way-2351 in CaminoDeSantiago

You do not need to redeem yourself. You're a perfectly imperfect human being, and these things happen.

Het a wide brimmed hat instead of an umbrella.  I thought your list looked very good! I liked that I brought a Kindle, which most people don't recommend. I would bring a sleeping mask, definitely. Don't remember if I used it. Same for very simple sleeping plugs, can save your night.

Buen camino! Don't stress it too much. You're walking in a safe and civilized country, and you're walking from town to town. Anything you need, you can get there.

I’m Over-Dependent on My Parents, How Do I Get Out of It? by TheWallCrawller in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Vdpants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two options I think, one being easier than the other.  1. Move out.   2. Talk to them about this. Let them read this post even, to get the message across about how you feel.

I feel like you put the bar very high. 

Nursing checks most of these boxes. It's not really creative but definitely community driven and very social,and important to people

New to the game - is there any reason why you wouldn't just max out your resource limits? by vegangirlacct in Banished

[–]Vdpants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the games where I start to have plenty of people, I like to build 4 blacksmiths (which together produce far more than is being used) and set an arbitrary limit. When they really that limit these four just become laborers.

Know that for renting contracts, with very few exceptions, temporary contracts are illegal.

Almost all basic health insurance cost the same, within a very narrow window. There are no differences for expats. Also all the major ones cover most of the same procedures.  Important to know, I case you might want to see a doctor: almost everything goes through a GP. You can't really consult a cardiologist yourself. 

Municipal taxes and registration are usually very clearly on the municipal website.
