[QUOTE="murraydv, post: 861315, member: 25221"] Hi Frogman 7777 I am sure that you will get some really great practical advice here, but I would be asking myself some fundamental questions first before planning the journey. Are you doing this alone and are you mentally up for the challenge of being on your own much of the time, especially when you have not been well? At times, when it is hot, or where camino markings might not be as clear as you would want, or when you are just alone, are you likely to get so anxious that it totally takes away from the enjoyment of the Camino? I would also observe that you might be rushing into this with little planning, as an absolute beginner. Your questions would suggest to me that you are a long way off making plans that will keep you safe and well and minimise stress and anxiety. I am not suggesting not going, but the more detailed plans you have, the less stress and anxiety you will experience. And don't underestimate the heat at this time of year. Looking at your concerns above and the fact that you have not been well, please make sure that you are doing this at the right time and with the appropriate level of planning. And ensure that you are mentally up for the challenge at this time. A friend going with you would make a big difference. Buen Camino Frogman and stay healthy and safe. Dave [/QUOTE]
