- Time of past OR future Camino
- Completed the Camino Frances in 2012 starting from SJPdP and loved it so much I want to do another. Planning to do the Via de la Plata in April 2014.
Hello,
I am intending to walk the VdlP from Early April 2014 starting from Seville. I completed the Camino Frances in 2012 with a long time friend. It was a wonderful experience. I feel pretty confident about my fitness but believe it is bit tricky in the first stage and feel a bit anxious about that. I will probably need to use Ivar's postal service as I am staying on in Spain afterwards. this will be my first solo walk and so I am also wondering what technology to take this time. We took a phone and small camera last time and I kept a traditional diary-no charging necessary! How regular is wi-fi along the way? I was thinking I would take an IPad this time but I am in two minds; weight versus convenience. Also a phone is handy for gps, apps with routes and spanish dictionary etc. what do others think?
