Any Canadians on the camino for May 2014?

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Even if you don't connect with some Canadians prior to leaving, you certainly discover many along the trail in May – it is popular for Canadians to walk the camino.

I am a Canadian at heart and will be starting from St. Jean on or about Sunday 27 April. Last year, some of my most appreciated Camino Family members were from the better half of North America. Most were from Ontario, but there were some from British Columbia, and Quebec too.

See ya!

Hey all. I am looking at a 2014 Camino. Starting in Barcelona either end April or mid September and 60-65 days later finishing in Muxia. Not sure which date yet. Planning for solo, but know I will meet up with many, many others. I am doing this as a mental health/PTSD awareness pilgrimage for myself and all other members of the Canadian military. More info to follow.

Yes.....I can confidently say that based on the HUGE number of Canadians walking in sept/October of this year. The running joke was "are there any Canadians and Australians left in your countries?".

There'll be a Toronto Camino group meeting on March 1 -details just posted on the regional board - and it's likely that you will be able to meet a number of people leaving at around your time.
greetings will try to make this meeting. I will be doing a Camino at some point but have decide to do volunteering at an albergue in Galicia for a month or more, so don't know exactly when will start a walk..Hopefully will see you at meeting...niel from St. Catharines.

Hi Jannie,

Coming from Ottawa, Ontario and arriving in SJPP on the 28th. I may stay a day just to check out the city, get last minute things if needed; ie poles, recover from jetlag and head out on the 30th? When do you guys get in? Let's connect if we can :)
