Hello everyone.

A guide to speaking Spanish on the Camino - enrich your pilgrim experience.
Buen Camino!

If you'd like to see who else is starting around the same time, and add your name to the list of those starting in April click here.
 
Booked up on the Camino Frances for April. Riddled with doubts over my capability for such a long & difficult challenge, but currently trying to walk my way through these. I guess such apprehensions are a normal part of the process eh 🤣
You've made the first step, believe and trust all will work out, baby steps will get you there! Take it slow and work up more miles each week. Being nervous and fearful is all part of the excitement in planning, so happy for you. Buen camino

One day, one step at a time. That’s all it takes. There is so much great information on the Forum. It helped me enormously.
Have courage. Congratulations. Buen Camino.

Thank you Liana, much appreciated.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I was apprehensive the first time as well (2015). But once I made it over the Pyrenees there was no doubt I could do the rest. The apprehension goes away and is replaced by excitement and wonder.
 
Welcome Allan. Perfectly natural to feel apprehensive but you will get there. Just take it easy and enjoy the journey.
