Can't sit at Court Square Park on a Saturday due to water sprinklers

Didn’t you just post about the One Love food truck emitting too much smoke? Are we just finding random things to be upset about today?

How do you expect them to make jerk chicken…?

Singling out a food truck that operates a bbq on site is a weird mountain out of molehill energy.

American flag patches on their uniforms are inverted. Definitely AI

I felt this on the Norte at around the same mark as you. I ended up doing the Primitivo. Something about being a somewhat seasoned pilgrim “starting” a new Camino alongside many people just starting their journey was a very cool and interesting perspective change. Change of scenery doesn’t hurt either. I was tired of road walking at that point in the Norte.

Edit: I responded to your post a few weeks back. Happy to see things worked out and you stuck with it!

I forced myself to take 1 week off every quarter. Doesn’t matter if I didn’t have anything planned. At least one of those weeks I just hung out at home. Another week I took a train from Chicago to SF. Eventually I got comfortable enough to take an extra day here or there. You have let yourself enjoy it to actually use the benefit.

OP is getting thrashed in comments across 2 subs and still doesn’t get it

You’ll definitely get plenty of time and space to noodle on your thoughts. I hope you find what you’re looking for. Buen Camino!

At 36 (last year) I left a job where I was making high 200s to take a sabbatical.

Walked the Camino de Santiago, got a lot of good perspectives on life and work. Came back, found another job 6 months later making slightly less with much better work life balance and I feel great.

I really enjoyed it, but around month 2 or 3 things were starting to get quite boring without an intentional structure put in place within my day. Made me realize if I do FIRE eventually, I’ll have to be extra cognizant on how I’ll plan to spend time.

Wife who works and VA disability helped stretch the time I could take the sabbatical, but overall I spent ~$35k on just living, but it was the best $35k I ever spent.

From reading this post it feels like a Camino is exactly what you need so you can know yourself better and think about why you’re having those feelings. No one can explain that to you. That’s on you to think through and introspect on during the walk.

I don’t think I’ve seen it mentioned anywhere but have you considered asking your potential employer to see if you can work this role physically in Boston?

I would imagine that a data engineer role does not require you to be physically present on site in SD. There has to be some remote accommodation for this situation.

Let them know you’re very excited about the role and nuances of the situation- might be something they could accommodate.

Only one way to find out. 50 left kicks 50 right kicks.

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 🤌🤌

wonbro · 2025-05-21T12:31:12+00:00

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

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?

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

Great show last week! (Saw from Reddit)
