Good day fellow pilgrims! I've managed to get five weeks off from work to start hiking the Camino Frances from mid-May to the end of June. Looking forward to reading through the adventures of those travelling before me.

Hi, this is my first Camino and I will be doing from Leon hope to see you along the wayGood day fellow pilgrims!

Buen Camino (always remember to take a day off, at least one per week, you walk with others but your energy level will be stronger from the rest day)I’m leaving from Leon on 31 May so we may cross paths as I’m planning to walk slowly and get to Santiago by 21 June.
Instead of a full day without walking I prefer to take one or two short days in a row.Buen Camino (always remember to take a day off, at least one per week, you walk with others but your energy level will be stronger from the rest day)
Great Advice, my days off are in larger towns, ie: Burgos, Leon Pamplona, etc something to do (without a full day of walking). Also when I am reaching a day with a long or higher climb (ie O'Cebreiro) I will walk farther to be closer to the climb, which saves energy from starting in a location that requires a longer walk (hope this makes sense) (max distance is no more than 38km)Instead of a full day without walking I prefer to take one or two short days in a row.
Be great to meet you. Lets keep an eye out for one anotherI’m leaving from Leon on 31 May so we may cross paths as I’m planning to walk slowly and get to Santiago by 21 June.
I am also trying for 11 May. I'm arriving on the 10th at 11pm in Biarritz and am looking in to how to get to SJPDP, leaving me a little time in the morning to explore SJPDP, and still making it to Orisson later on the 11th. It will be a busy day. Hope to see you along the way.Fantastic! I'm starting from SJPDP on May 11th. Maybe see you along the way.
I am as well Hope to see you thereI am starting in St.Jean Pied de Port on the 15th of May.Hopefully see you all along the way
Will you be going all the way to Roncesvalles on your first day or will you stop at Orisson?Fantastic! I'm starting from SJPDP on May 11th. Maybe see you along the way.
I've got a reservation at Orisson that night.Will you be going all the way to Roncesvalles on your first day or will you stop at Orisson?
Do you have your reservation at Orisson? Hope to see you there!I think I'll do the same. I get in to Biarritz late on 10 May. Just trying to decide if I should take a taxi to St. Jean Pied de Port that night or catch the morning train. I'd like to explore SJPDP a little but think I can take in what I need over a couple hours and still make it to Orisson on the afternoon of the 11th... All packed and ready to go. Been training for a while. Looking forward to the mental part...
I think I'll do the same.

You'll be ahead of me, but I'll keep my eye out for you.I'm starting in SJPdP on May 8, God willing, taking the Valcarlos route this time. This is my third camino, my second on the CF, my first solo. I have a Camino Forum badge on a dark red pack.. That is how you might spot me.
I have a gray backpack - no patches. I'll be wearing a dress and sandals.Thanks trecile
Chances are good you’ll catch up with me. I’m pretty slow.
