    Where are all the forum members?

    I met 2 forum members at the beginning of my last Camino---one was a hospitalera at L'Espirit du Chemin, the other was a young woman from the Netherlands who walked with me for a few days. In the middle of my trip, I met up with a couple of Canadian guys, one of whom referred to me as "one of...

    Class of 2012

    Ok, I'm in. I think. :) I'm wanting to head back to the Camino & walk certain parts of the Frances again. Preferably sometime when it's cool, like March. Kelly

    Accommodation and stamping of passport - hostel/hotel??

    Even if you stay in a place that does not have a sello, chances are some place in town, or along your way that particular day, does---a bar, a church, a store. Kelly

    Buen Camino, Johnny Walker! Oh how I wish I was going with you! I'm so homesick for the Camino right now..... Kelly

    Recomend 2 wk walk in area AS pwrful on subconscious?

    There is "energy" all along the Camino. The way I look at it, there have been so many people walking it for such a long period of time, contributing some of their own energy to it, the Camino has become a "ley line" in & of itself. Beyond that, all I can say is that whenever I asked (prayed)...

    2011, the year when plans come to fruition

    Thanks for the info, Andy. I figured the old pilgrim roads would now be paved-over highways. :) Kelly

    2011, the year when plans come to fruition

    Buen Camino!!! Sounds like you're having a great time. :) BTW, I've been interested in doing a Canterbury Pilgrimage. Is there a good guide out there, or do you just follow the highway? :) Kelly

    Planning to walk from JPP Apr.20. Need to do this

    You can do it. Take your time & don't get caught up in the "OMG, you have to walk 50k a day" mentality. If you have to take a bus, train, or taxi, do it. If you have to stop after 10k-15k, do it. :) There's lots of very good information & advice on this board, so take your time & research it...

    Hi, I am from Florida in USA.

    Consider getting an "open jaw" ticket from the US. It's not that much more expensive than a regular round trip. This way you can fly into Paris & take EasyJet to Biarritz, then the metro bus to Bayonne & the regular train to SJP. Or if you want to fly into San Sebastian (from where?), you can...

    From Texas, starting May, 2011

    If you only have 10 days (does that include travel days as well?), you might want to consider starting at Sarria & taking your time to get to Santiago. Any days left over, you can use to sight-see in Santiago, as well as Madrid, without feeling rushed and by walking from Sarria, you can get...

    Starting Sept. 2011, from Texas

    If you decide to take Easy Jet, book as soon as you can. The price does go up the closer you get to the flight date. :) I've flown Easy Jet several times & while they aren't kidding about being a "no frills" airline, the planes have been clean, the service great, & the flights have left on...

    Starting Sept. 2011, from Texas

    Heather, I flew to Biarritz on Easy Jet, a one-way ticket from Paris. I did this because my flight from the US wasn't getting to Paris until 4 (via London & BA) & I knew from past experience that I'd be hit hard by jet lag. Since the Easy Jet flight was the next day at 7 a.m., I scouted out...

    Starting Sept. 2011, from Texas

    Hi Heather! You will be starting your camino exactly 2 years after I started mine. I'm also from Texas. :) You may want to consider flying into Biarritz--Easy Jet has early flights from CDG, where you will land in Paris. What I did last time was spend the night at an airport hotel at CDG to get...

    From Texas, starting May, 2011

    Hello Fellow Texan! :D I first walked the Camino in May 2007 & there were plenty of folks on the route at that time! The only thing you have to keep an eye out for is the weather, especially when you're going over the mountains to Roncesvalles. If you have any questions, or want to talk to a...

    Out of the Texas Heat to the Camino Frances in September

    Howdy neighbor! I'm from Texas too! :) Buen Camino & good luck planning your trip! If you want, check out my blog for info from Sarria-Santiago. Not sure about this, but you may be able to take a train or bus from Leon & make a connection to O'C. When I took the train from Leon to Sarria...

    My granddaughter and I want to do this!

    Well, you came to the right place! :D As for advice on the best route, this year is a Holy Year, meaning the Camino Frances will be packed with walkers. However, if you want to be brave & attempt it anyway, you may want to consider starting at Astorga or Leon. Plan accordingly, & plan to spend...
