Flying from Los Angeles to Madrid May 25th 2019 on my first Camino. Planning to walk the
Camino Frances and as of today with plans on ending in Finisterre. Giving myself just 44 days for this life altering experience that I have until now only read and viewed on YouTube. Member of the American Pilgrim Association with six iPhone apps under my belt for quick reference.
My equipment is everything left over from an attempted 2011 thru hike of the infamous Pacific Crest Trail. My physical training started just last week. My spiritual training is on going.
Hablo muy bien el Espanol. Fortunately or unfortunately I find myself being rather a bit chatty on the trail if given a chance.
Retired at 55 and at sixty the camino is now calling due to life, family, friends passing on to the great adventure.
My family roots according to my DNA are of the Iberian Peninsula and with a Spanish surname of Perez by way of Cuba and then Miami.
Looking forward to some motivation or online words while waiting my departure flight in less than two months.
