Past: Camino Frances, walked from 6-Feb to 3-Mar-17.
Future: Camino Frances for summer 2019
Hi all I'm James,

I finished the Camino Frances on foot in March 2017, and will be returning soon. It would be great to meet some of you walking the Camino this year, and chat/cover at different stages of your pilgrimage. In second year I filmed, interviewed for and reported a variety of local stories ( jj-now.wixsite.com/news ). For my third and final year of study, I will produce a 15-20 minute documentary movie, showing some of the Camino's sights, history and the interesting people taking on the famous pilgrimage.

It would be fantastic for any of you walking this summer to meet up at different stages throughout the path, to show what the Camino means to you.

Please do get in touch and Buon Camino!

3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Hi Jamie
We are planning a very short Camino to introduce a friend to the joys of a pilgrimage and plan to start from Tricastella next year. How did you get there to start?

I have walked the Camino Francis 7 times, twice in 2017 and 2018. (2019)
Hi James, I start my 8th Camino Francis may 29. I am bringing my two granddaughters ages 14 and 21. The 21 year old walked it with me two years ago and is anxious to go back. We reach Santiago on June 27. Feel free to contact me if interested.

Hi James,

will do the Camino Francès from 01. July until 30. July this summer.
Flying from Germany on the 30. June via Paris to Bayonne, taking the train to SJPdP. Leaving SJPdP on the 1. July.
Maybe we can meet on the walk, if you do your work in the same timeframe.

Buen Camino!
Roland

Hi Abby,

I leave St-Jean-Pied-de-Port on May 30th, so could probably meet you in Pamplona or somewhere if all's good for you!

Many thanks

Wow, I will be in St Jean on May 29 too. Staying at Beilari which I highly recommend for a great Camino family experience. We will be in Pamplona on June 1. Hope to see you
