I am concerned about staying in the hostels with the chemical cleaners and fellow pilgrims spraying random aerosols for bed bugs, deodorant, etc. I have thought of bringing a tent, but that many posts advise against this for one reason or another. I know the long-distance walk would do wonders for me and it is a lifelong dream to walk the Camino, but I don't know if it is worth it given the reactions I have to things like perfumes, laundry chemicals, fabric softners, etc. I also follow a pretty strict diet that keeps me feeling semi-normal that includes all organic, non-gmo, corn, casein, soy and gluten-free, as well as mostly dairy-free. As long as I can cook for myself or eat high quality eggs, fish, chicken, rice, fruit, veggies and other simple foods along the way, I think I will do fine with that topic. It is mostly the random chemical episodes that I am trying to figure out how to avoid. An annual Camino or other long-distance walking trip sounds like a wonderful way to rejuvenate my spirit as well as chelate chemicals (along with low EMF infrared sauna throughout the year, which has proven very helpful). Your thoughts are very much appreciated!
