    I'm Worried about Walking with my Wife !

    Lots of great perspectives. Here is mine: if my husband and I went together we both jokingly say there would be a crime scene!!! I just got back from 6 weeks on the Camino Frances and agree with previous comments that for me the experience could only be done solo. I saw many couples together -...

    It doesn't seem real

    Your post is timely for myself as I am experiencing the exact same emotions! And yes I am normally quite confident. Our paths may cross as I am on a similar timeline and giving myself all the time I need and having just crossed the "55" year line my body will need the time. Cheers

    Apprehensive now with a tinge of "uh oh"

    I just read your post and swear it could have been written by myself as you have exactly captured my thoughts and fears as I get ready to push the button on my flight arrangements from Canada for first week in sept from SJP. 55 in one month, excited and know I simply must do this yet sometimes...

    Safety on the Le Puy

    A very reasonable and fair enquiry in light of events. I cannot help as I simply do not know but I like to hope that throughout this fantastic forum questions can be taken at face value without trying to second guess intent. Thanks!

    Yikes. Reading this makes me nervous - I did not realize I had to book locations along the el camino in advance. I just planned to stop in Orission and stay somewhere. I clearly need to read up a bit more on this!!!
