    Very nice summary of what to expect. I agree with the smart wool brand of socks. I wear them with work boots, and they are truly worth the extra money.

      @Tammy- you can be alone for several days if you walk the Portugese trail from Lisbon. There aren’t many pilgrims who choose that route.

    I would love to do this journey. The only thing stopping me are the bedbugs. I don't mind people and I enjoy groups, but those bedbugs are a came changer for me. My only alternative is to book at more expensive accommodations, and I truly wanted to get the pilgrimage feel of this journey.

    • @TammyKraft

      To encourage you to do it, I’ve done the Camino Frances, Portuguese, via de la plata , and via Francigena and have never had an issue. Most places are very conscientious about bed bugs. But there is also a spray for your sleep sack called Permethrin that works excellent. I used it when I walked the Appalachian trail to keep ticks and bug away. Worked great.

      Expensive hotels can have bedbugs just as often as cheaper accomodations. I have walked 5 Caminos and have yet to see a single bedbug. Book at albergues that have bedbug proof mattresses, spray you sleeping bag and pack with Permythrin and check other mattresses and frames.

      I’ve travelled it twice and going again next week, bed bugs have never been an issue.

      I heard on another RUclips video the best was to avoid BBs is going at the start of the season when they just open up as they will have cleaned throughout, and bring your own sheet, hope this helps 😊

      @charlesashworth9850 9 дней назад

      I’ve walked two full Camino’s, including the Camino Portuguese from Lisbon and Camino Francés. None of these have experienced any bedbugs. I think this is way overhyped externally.

    Hi what shoes did you use?

    • @TammyKraft
      @TammyKraft  2 месяца назад

      I generally wear Altra hiking shoes. They are extremely comfortable with a wide toe box.

      Absolutely! But be careful because the solitude and peace are addictive. You’ll meet wonderful people from around the globe of all religions and ethnicities.

    Good travel vlog! Still, I must say…I’ve never understood the purpose of “Journals” except as an exercise in vanity. The minutia of your life is largely uninteresting to others and even less interesting to yourself since most of us would rather LIVE the experience rather than analyze it.
