Margaret / KiwiNomad and I have had a number of telephone conversations re starting a confraternity type organisation here in Aust. (and there in NZ!). I would love to see us, at some point, get to the stage where we can have our very own credenciale, and have copies of a number of constitutions from other confraternities with that end in mind.
Obviously with this great land of ours being so huge it will be very difficult to come up with something that everyone can get to and so I am placing this thread as a tentative one to see what sort of arrangements we can come to, and to see if anyone has any ideas on what to do.
As a starter, for SA at least, I would like to see if we could organise a function to have an informal chat. If you are interested in this please PM me with your contact details and I will get back to you. I already have a significantly long least of people who are interested in doing something - if you want to be on that list just let me have you details. I see that the south coasters in NSW are talking something similar.
My camino background is that I have walked three Chemins / Caminos, which are:-
2005 - Via Tolosana from Toulouse, onto the Camino Aragon and from there onto Punete le Reina where I followed the Camino Frances to Santiago.
2007 - Via Podiensis from Le Puy en Velay to St Jean Pied de Port - Roncevalles where I continued on the Camino Frances to Santiago de Compostela.
2009 - GR 65 beginning from Troyes down to Bar-sur-Seine and along to Vezelay, Via Lemovicencis to St Jean Pied de Port, Camino del Norte from Bayonne to Oviedo and then the Camino Primitivo from there to where it joins the Camino Frances at Melide and then onto SdC.
In 2011 it is my intention to walk the Camino Mozarabe to Merida, then the Via de la Plata to where it turns off to Orense and then follow the Sanbres to SdC.
Regards, Janet
