I have received some repeated questions this last couple of days so there you have a general answer:
About internet:
Yes, you will be able to access internet. I am not sure how many but in most of the places where we will sleep you might have access to internet in some form. I see quite a few of you very eager to keep working while here and you might have a chance to do so on a daily basis. But can’t tell you when or where as now.
About “Compostela credential”:
Someone has asked about this. You can definitely get a booklet and stamp it at every place we visit if you want to try and get a Compostela credential, which is the certificate pilgrims get at the end of the journey. I don’t really suggest it or recommend it unless you feel you are going to be making an effort of some sort that equals the effort that walking pilgrims go through, we’ll discuss that on our first meeting.
About suitcases and luggage size:
What do I mean by small size? Something that you feel you can carry up and down everyday without wandering why that piece of luggage is so heavy. So it’s up to you. You are going to be carrying it up and down. The way of the pilgrim is detachment and lightness, so really consider what is necessary and what not. It’s part of the journey.

About weather and clothing:
Consider changing Spring weather. The evening nights will be cool up in the mountains. Then warmer in the plains but bring a bit of everything. Don't forget a warm fleece or something similar.
