I think for your first Camino, the Frances will give you the best experience. Although you might see more people, it’s surprising how walkers spread out during the walking day, especially at the speed you’ll be walking. There’s also the Meseta... -

Agree with the 1st answer that it seems that CF "speaks to you ". For many (and yes in no small way- thanks be to The Movie), myself included, it's almost a natural way to start a Camino...no complete explanation...it just IS. I humbly suggest to...

I have walked several Caminos but not the CdN. VdlP is a very nice Camino, but not the "the" for me. The CF is the closest to me, for several reasons. I second the arguments of @good_old_shoes .

I've been searching/reading for a while, and it's been incredibly helpful. However, I am still torn between several route options, and would appreciate opinions, suggestions, advice :) I'll lay out my situation in some detail...

braindancer reacted to Anthony Rocco's post in the thread The Way: how do you feel about THE movie? with Like.
On our first camino, and many after that, we always seem to meet people of all ages with stories that can only be described as life imitating art. The characters in The Way came to life for us. One lady whom we kept walking with and bumping into...

I think in fairness, being told your son had just died and having to set off the retrieve the body at short notice, he may be excused for not learning or being in any fit state to do so. Now if he was coming over for any other reason... sure...
