Hi Niall! I'm Jackie, and I'm a 20 year old American taking a year off from school to travel around. Are you still planning on doing the Camino this month? I'm in Valencia right now and planning to do some 200km or so of the Camino before flying out of Santiago on Nov 21. Right now, though, I'm doing it alone, so if anyone else is out there hiking and wants some company...I'm game!
