    Look Around You!

    Social anxiety...

    perfect answer,i too felt that pilgrims were all keen help or share along the way,,so different from "real life" where it seems to be survival of the fittest,camino feels more like a team event where everyone trys and hopes to get each other to the end..

    The Best Song To represent The Camino

    What do I need to book ahead..?

    i agree that the most exciting thing was wondering what our beds would be like each day ,and knowing that if we wanted to go a little further or stop a little sooner we could!we never had a prob finding a bed,even in pretty busy times,loved the freedom.
