Safe
I assume since you are still dependent on your parents, since you used the word brakes. Brakes indicates to me that it is their car and they are driving. It's just a metaphor.
In any event I have done the Camino and I am 60 years old and planning to do it again August 29. If my daughter...

Went to your website
I think I understand now that I went to your website. Hopefully, you will learn the Camino is not commercial. If the Camino is to remain true to itself you will report it as such. Somethings need to be different to exist. They should not be exploited.
If you read about...
Whatchathinking?
I don't understand what you are trying to do? You are a writer, you can write. You are an employee of a newspaper, are you reporting? Why do the Camino, I'm curious.
Lent

Despathio
I met a Spaniard my third day on the Camino and he told me to "Despathio". Take my time on the path. I couldn't get better advice as I really had not left my busy life behind, I took it with me. Several days later I came to a city and while walking "despathio" thru the city I realized...
8 days
It sounds like you will be in Europe more than 8 days, that the Camino is part of something longer. If this is true then where will you be and what is your interest in the Camino? Then I can be more specific in my recommendations.

Hello Again:
I am starting my second Camino August 28 from Philadelphia. I will be landing in Biarritz, August 29. Last year I did the Camino Frances. I probably will be doing the same Camino, however I see Camino Norte starts @ Irun. How would I get to Irun? Walking is ok.
