- Camino Frances October 2013 - December 2013
When I really started thinking about doing the camino at the start of July I had planned to do it alone, but the more I have spoke about it with my boyfriend the more we are speaking about doing it together.
There is a few problems with this, he doesn't have the same 'want' to do the Camino as me, he is worried about having enough money to do the full Camino Frances.
To get from where I am in Scotland to St Jean Pied de Port the start out cost for each of us is just under 300 pounds.
We both have the end of October, whole of November and December free and I really dont want to miss this chance before I/we go back into full time employment. I am currently on a Gap year round mainland Europe and my boyfriend has just finished his Masters Degree. I think that this is too good a chance to pass up on.
I understand I cant force him to do this, that would only end in arguments along the way, I would be worried he didn't want to go as far one day, or money became too much of a worry for him therefore not enjoying the full experience. But I worry about the guilt I would feel if I go ahead and book this on my own.
I know we could plan for him to fly out and do the last 100km together? So this may be something to look into rather than him doing the full Camino with me.
Any one else been in this situation? Or can offer adcice?
Thanks
