Lightweight Packing List straight from the Camino de Santiago - second time advice!

- Unpack with me at the end of my Camino Portuguese!
I filmed this straight away when I arrived in Santiago so I can give you guys information about every single detail that is in my very light backpack.
Since I had a back surgery beginning of last year, I had to make sure I pack as light as I can, whilst still being comfortable and having everything I need. This is now my second camino (after the camino frances last year), with very small changes to my packing.
Hope this helps you get ready for your camino!

Drop me any question in the comment section and I am happy to help if I can! Buen Camino!
Thank you for the review. It is very helpful for my camino. But in order not to pick up / spread bedbugs I wouldn't put my backpack on the bed or spread all my things on it.
You're welcome! I'm glad it helped! Good point, put your sleeping bag first and then any items on top if you need to. Unless you do a UA-cam Video :) @@anjabaumgart4606
Thank you so much for this video Jessie. I live in South Australia. I will be doing the Camino next June. You information has helped me to reasses my backpack size and minimise what I will take.
I get very cold so that is a down side. I will have to be choozy on what I will take to keep warm. ❤
I’m so glad I could help and you will leave some things at home! I haven’t ever regretted not having something but I did regret carrying too much! I get cold easily as well, a fleece jacket and a medium sleeping bag will definitely do the job in June! Remember it’s summer by then in Europe :) Buen Camino to Australia!
Super helpful tips, thank Jess! I love to travel light and functionally and seems you got the essentials down packed :) You also look so great and so fresh after finishing the Camino :)
Thank you!! The camino really gives you a whole new glow! I wish it stayed :)
Thanks for your great experience!👏 Minimalism is not only the best principle while traveling, but also for the whole life🙏
So true! That’s something I learned on the camino as well. The focus on the essential to see what’s really important in life and let go of the clutter in your life and in your mind x
whats the obnoxious clapping
I’m going on next August 29 Thank you so much
love that bai active set, where did you get it?
Did you mention getting bed bugs? Any advice?
What is the name of the albergue? I will be finishing in May and would love a recommendation. Also, what would you suggest doing in Santiago? So many people must rush off to their "regular" lives, but I'd like to have some reflection time to consider what I have accomplished.
This is such a good point, I'll make sure to do a video on what to do once you arrive in Santiago! The albergue is called: Albergue Seminario Menor. It is a short max 10 minute walk to the Plaza de Santiago, but a bit on a hill (which provides great views). A bed in the dorm is around 20 Euros, I booked a single room for 25 Euros because I was dying for some good sleep and leaving my stuff everywhere :) So if you usually stay in albuergues on the camino, you will love this one. If you are used to something a tiny bit more luxurious, you might also book an air bnb and enjoy your accomplishment! I still wanted the pilgrim vibes, so loved the Seminario. It does close at midnight. I always made sure I have a couple of days in Santiago. To make sure I don't have to rush in on a specific day and also to take it all in once I get there. Some pilgrims rest and keep walking to Finisterre. Some leave right away. I made sure I have time for a Michelin star restaurant, sit on the plaza for 2 days straight and see friends and strangers walk in, enjoy the last days with my Camino family and reflect on the camino. Your body still wants to keep moving, so I walked around alot! :) Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions! Buen Camino! x
Do they accept this bag in cabin baggage
In wich month did you go?:) want to Go in Nov and Sep but unsure if its too cold?
I did the French Camino in October/November and the Portuguese one in August/September. I think all these times were great. I have a packing video for my October November Camino as well to show what I packed there. Hope this helps! 🎒
#301th. =D
Are you planning more Caminos in the future??
For sure! Ideally I would want to go every year but probably not feasible until I retire :)
from wheere do you have short leggins which you wear on video please? they look awesome
Was it really all playback? I have the impression they sang partly theirself.
Are we talking about the obnoxious clapping or Milli Vanilli here? I’m a big fan. Of both.
Nice video! I went there last summer with a 16kg backpack (for a lot of reason actually) aha my foot was completely destroyed aha take a look at my documentary if you want :) Keep going!
Thank you! Yes it puts so much pressure on your body, I think we tend to forget that. Walking alone can be straining enough :)
