Great tips! I found a shampoo and conditioner bar that I really like, so I don't need liquid for that. Jack 59, available in Canada. They even have a travel size, but you can cut a piece off a full size bar or use it at home until it is smaller.

Have made a similar kit for travel and Camino using Dutchware's water resistant SilNylon multifold dopp kit - similar folding and zippered pockets but zipper final closure with external zipped pocket. Very similar items... A mini facial soap with Aloe is a good choice, especially if you encounter irritation/sunburn. Consider travel tube of Tylenol or Ibuprofen even as a backup (chewables are faster acting - use a Travel Tube (see Garage Grown Gear) and keep that in waist/cross-body pack); also take one of wife's disposable razors for shaving; tightly re-rolled toilet paper about 1"D (as backup to another re-roll in a zip lock in your back pocket ALWAYS); TINY sealed bottle of Visine for eye irritation; small 'stick' dispenser "Blister Defense" (like solid Vaseline); backup tube of lip balm (best if also SPF30+); a couple 2"x2" gauze pads plus a small packet or TINY tube of Tribiotic; an extra mini-pen wrapped with 2ft of Leukotape (multi-purpose medical tape, especially to protect "hot spots" or secure an impromptu bandaid of gauze section with Tribiotic); a few Wisp tiny toothbrushes with toothpaste 'bubble' and dental pick handle; small Zip Lock or Travel Tube with chewable toothpaste TABLETS (see GGG); *good* toenail clippers (especially important on Camino); dental floss without case plus 2" OD S-Hooks (imprompu clothes line, durable thread) plus medium size sewing needle; TSA small folding scissors; tiny waterproof flashlight (some bath/showers have motion sensitive lights that go off while you're still there), e.g. Olight imini or Oclip. Also consider for the dopp kit: cut to size copy of passport front page, copy of Credit Card front/back, copy of important phone numbers (home and booked accommodations), copy of any med prescriptions. Finally, consider Matador's soap bar dry-bag plus nice slice of Dr Bonner's Lavender or Peppermint soap (use for every soap/shampoo need) loose in your pack - keeps everything smelling fresh - and nice to have the soap in small mesh scrub sacks (Amazon), making it easier to hold on to the bar while lathering up.

Really enjoying your videos. You keep it real. I hate when people say, don’t bring x,y or z, there are shops in Spain. What they never tell you is that you’re walking through tiny villages and could be days away from a town where you can buy a fleece if the weather turns cold or that not all villages have pharmacies. I walked Camino Frances September/October 2020 and experienced all sorts of weather from very hot to walking up to Cruz de Ferro in snow. I was glad I had a warm layer to wear under my waterproof jacket.

Thanks Marie! It’s just really important that folks know the real deal, right? (Worts and all) - heck, “present me” would have saved “past me” a lot of pain and money on my first trip!😂 Thanks for commenting and the kind words too! (Presently I am writing you from an albergue bunk on the Norte!)
