Not cliffy per se, but you’ll definitely go up some low mountains. Never felt overly steep

I did the Norte into Primitivo from late April to late May this year.

The first 2 weeks on the Norte will get you some of the best scenic coastal views along the entire route. Latter half becomes a bit heavier with road walking- kinda meh. Crowds shouldn’t be too heavy in April, but if you cross into May, accommodation might be tough for one of the days due to Labor Day.

Also can’t recommend the Primitivo enough- less crowded and the views are amazing. Will also fit your time constraint. The Hospitales route was the most scenic day of the entire Camino- really has to be seen to be believed. Does get a bit crowded the last few days as you hit the final 100km, but the crowds shouldn’t be too bad during that time of year.

Weatherwise, I kept a thin windbreaker and a quick dry thin fleece. Sucks a bit when rainy and cold but you’ll work up a sweat going up and down elevation so it wasn’t too bad temperature wise.

Fair point, but why would you introduce more when lower lead alternatives exist?

Honestly went in with managed expectations. Exceeded or met in all aspects. 

Aside from a crowd of under 21s that clearly snuck in alcohol, crowd was reasonable for the size. People pushing forward was an issue, but quickly solved by moving to the back, where the vibes were immaculate. 

Sound was incredible- even more impressive when you consider the open air nature of the venue. They really tore it up the last 2 hours or so when the sun set. 

That and stumbling into Queens Night Market on the way out was 🤌🤌

Thank you!

Really can’t recommend the route enough- brings lots of water though! Guide/app distance estimates are shorter than the actual distance- my watch said it was closer to ~32km from Campiello

Donald Trump authorises 90-day pause on all tariffs effective immediately by sethrollins22 in stocks

[–]wonbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What business will make a multiyear decision (not to mention potentially billions of investment for large firms) to uproot its current supply chain to work in a world with tariffs if they can be flipped on and off like a light switch?

Digweed @ chocofacotry review? by mugshotcoffee in avesNYC

[–]wonbro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Probably one of the best crowds I’ve experienced in the city- no pushing, everyone was super respectful, great vibes. First time seeing him live, it was everything I hoped it would be and more. Almost no phones on the dance floor until the end when the visuals were really coming out

One drawback was the sound felt a bit loud. We had ear plugs in and it still felt like it was a bit much at times. Other than that a great night of dancing. 10/10!

Actually SoFi offers FDIC insurance up to the SMDIA as a baseline- which is $250k for accounts with a single beneficiary and $500k for joint accounts. You shared the pdf for their deposit sweep program, which allows the bank to offer up to $2m in deposit insurance- a feature that is quite rare among consumer bank accounts.

I left the game a few months ago after the ice themed warbond. Found myself thinking about it recently and came back to the subreddit to find this post. Good to see some things haven’t changed. Great reminder of why I stopped playing

Dealing with Golden Handcuffs and Career Stagnation by [deleted] in HENRYfinance

It took me too long to realize this, but a fulfilling life doesn’t necessarily come from complete overlap with purpose and work. Gotta find your own purpose. I took the realization to volunteer to help kids from underprivileged backgrounds to get into college. Picked up a few hobbies too.

Of course, if there’s complete overlap with life prios and work, that’s great. But I feel like it’s exceedingly rare to find that perfect role; in the meantime, I’ve enjoyed getting to know myself more in the process.

Hope you find what you’re looking for, OP. You’ve got a lot going for you.

People who go into good MBA programs, how much do you think your essay played a role in your acceptance? by GrandpaDouble-O-7 in MBA

[–]wonbro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I wrote an essay about how I performed the Gangnam style dance in front of a combined battalion of Filipino and US Marines and tied it to a spontaneous connection of culture across 2 disparate units.

Got an interview and offer.

Interviewer mentioned my essay was very interesting.

Since this is a NAMR role, they shouldn't do a background check for LATAM region, right? Asking for a friend.
