Time of past OR future Camino
May 2024
I am staying at a 300 year old Basque farmhouse slightly outside of St. Jean Pied de Port (SJPP) before I start my Camino. The owner, Melanie, is great and will do anything for the pilgrims staying with her! She provides full concierge services; for example, drive you to restaurants and errands such as for pilgrim shopping, pharmacy, post office, grocery store, etc., and she even stages pictures of you walking out of SJPP as you begin your Camino. She gave me a history of the Basques. Also, I prearranged with her and she took me to Lourdes for the day. Here is her contact information:

3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Thank you. I guess you had to pay for the Lourdes excursion. How much was it?
When you say ‘ just outside SJPP - how many km’s?
