My #1 tip for first time pilgrims is to slow down and embrace what the experience has to give.
Everyday you will walk around people from all over the world. Taking the chance to meet these
people is something I highly recommend. From a packing perspective, my main tip is to use poles.
Using poles correctly can take off a percentage of your weight onto the poles with every step
you take. That weight that the poles take from you adds up in the long run.
