Great run down! I definitely plan on referencing this video (along with any follow-up vids) when I do a Camino!
🙌
This is very nice. I have been thinking doing Camino de Santiago for a while, so I am glad to come across your channel and seeing what your experience has been like. Keep up the lovely work and all the best on your journeys.
Thank you very much! I’m starting the Camino soon and will continue creating content around it 😊 I hope you choose to do it one day!
I have been on Camino 4 times, the last two with only 18-19 liter packs. I think you have way too many tops, bottoms, and socks. You can wash and dry every night on the Camino, even if it is only a sink wash. A lot of places have washers and dryers as well. Everything else seems good. I even bring that same massage ball 👍🏻
Hey thanks for your comment!! That is AWESOME that you went with an 18 liter pack. Wow. How long have your camino trips been? You think 3 shirts and 3 bottoms is too many?
@@TravelLightAdventureduo My trips range from one week to three weeks at a time, but my packing strategy stays the same. Basically, one outfit for hiking, one outfit for evenings when I am “clean”, and a couple more items that can double as pajamas or layers, like a tank top and leggings. But don’t worry too much, because there will be opportunities to ship stuff home, if needed. On my first trip I mailed home a box from Pamplona 😁
@@Lizzybeth1973 Ok, you've inspired me to take one less shirt. Haha! I'll be going with 2 hiking shirts.
I did the full Camino Frances in 2022. I took a 20 litre pack and I ended up dumping gear I didn’t need such as my water bladder and extra clothes. I don’t know what your pack weighs but if it’s more than 8kg it’s overkill. Mine weighed 6kg without water and 8kg with.
@@tadghsmith1457 wow you ditched your water bladder?? How come?
Can you take trekking pole insude the cabin?
According to TSA you cannot, however I have travelled with poles in my carry on many times and did so this time as well.
Are you checking your hiking poles? Im not sure you can get those on planes on carryon...
Not carrying on hiking poles. You are right…they have to be checked. I’m going to get a hard cardboard tube, and check them into baggage cargo that way.
I actually plan to bring my hiking poles as a carry-on. I wrap the pointy ends with paper towels and cover them in bandage tape. I have traveled with them many times in my carry-on and (knock on wood) haven’t had any issues with TSA!
@@TravelLightAdventureduo I leave tomorrow for the Camino Portugués from Porto to Santiago and adding the Spiritual Variant. So excited! Everyone I've talked to said hiking poles get confiscated, so I'm planning to buy new ones at Decathlon in Lisbon or Porto. I hope you're successful taking yours as carry on. I heard that at the Santiago airport (for departure), they make no exceptions. All are confiscated. Seems so wasteful to me. Someone could make quite a nice business collecting all the discarded gear in Santiago and carrying it back to the Camino starting points for resale. Buen Camino!
Thats an amazing business idea lol. Thanks for letting me know about Santiago Airport, this is my first time bringing my trekking poles to Spain. I will report back on what happens.
@@TravelLightAdventureduo Thanks. I'll be interested to hear how it goes. I'll get to Santiago before you arrive, so I'll tell them you're coming. Have a great adventure!
Unfortunately, the new exo 48’s are way, WAY, larger (30x14x12 s/m), than the allowed dimensions for carry-on luggage for Delta, which is 22x14x9. And the allowances for many of the smaller European carriers, may be even less. Of course, it depends on the agents…but……..!
Many of our clients bring the Osprey Eja 48 as a carry on and it fits in the overhead bin.
My partner Enzo has an Exos from 2022 and sometimes has to turn it sideways to get it to fit in the overhead bin because the frame is much taller.
Music makes it harder to hear...
I appreciate that feedback!
Have done Camino and you have way too much stuff. Best of luck though and have a fantastic time! 🙏🏽
Thanks so much for your input, what items would you remove?
Great video, I think that the comments /suggestions of having less is because of the things you buy while there and the seasonal difference. The saying goes "You pack your fears", I believe you are a hiker, which means you go places that don't have resources. Also, a camino in May is hard to predict the weather. I did the Portugues last year, beginning of September, only got rain once, and it was the day I arrived in Santiago, so no raingear until my last day, had to purchase it. I did donate several items as I went, and picked up some on the way (Bug spray, there was a bed bug outbreak last year)
I would love to see a post Camino video, and see if you changed your mind about any of your items.
I leave to Lisbon on the 14th, train there for 5 days, then Porto to start. Then a weird Leon to Santiago, so 2 camino trip.
Buen Camino❤
@@nursynikki thank you very much! Sounds like you got great weather on the Portuguese. I will make a follow up video upon my return ❤️🙏🏻
Too much gear. The Camino is Not a Trek so you can get by with a 30 l or less pack. Only need 1 change of clothes if using high tech clothing.
Thanks for your input! I’ll make another video upon my return about what I needed and didn’t need
I agree you will discard most of it before you’re done. Enjoy
@@marthajoyrichardson7727 so far I have discarded my brush and replaced it with a small comb. I also got rid of an extra iPhone charging cube and a handful of cough drops because pharmacies are readily available. Other than that I have been using everything I packed!
