Camino in August and September 2015

[hcarlen]

Hi all,
I am planning to do the Camino Francis in the August / September timeframe 2015.

I will probably be flying in to Paris, France from Melbourne, Australia and out again via Lisbon in Portugal after some post Camino R&R with an old friend living in the south of Portugal.

I was born in Sweden, have dual Swedish / Australian citizenship and been living in Oz for some 26 years now. I plan to do the Camino by myself as I am sure that I will hardly be alone and it is a much better way to meet new people anyway in my view.

Buen Camino
PS isn't the movie "The Way" just a ripper? You just want to drop everything and get onto it after watching that movie.

Buen Camino HCarlen. I am sure that you will enjoy your solo hike in Aug/Sept. When you want or need companionship, you will have it...
Yes, that movie sure did cost me loads of money. You know, for airfare, new equipment. etc etc etc....

Yes. I wish I had spring in my step on day one and on day thirty-three! Instead, my muscles ached and my feet hurt.

Good luck your preparations - you'll have a great time. The Way is a good film, but I've always found my relationship with my Camino 'family' to be a bit less 'intense' than the four characters in that. Also much more fluid with people joining and leaving along the Way. And good pilgrims don't get arrested, walk through farmers' crops or light fires.

True, very true. That last comment made me burst out laughing. I will try to avoid all that
