    Ciao, I am walking Camino Frances, starting SJPP 31 October 2014

    I may be walking alone, so do let me know if you are doing the walk at this time. I think my most daunting challenge at this point is being alone when walking from SJPP over the Pyrenees to Roncalles. While I am looking forward to my own company, this bit might be better with someone...

    Train from Rome to St Jean

    Thank you so much for your swift replies. Crikey I can see why everyone suggests going to Paris though...maybe I have to reconsider flying...Am I right in thinking Biarritz is the closest airport? I will also try to find info on the Italian Forum, but my Italian, I am ashamed to say, is not as...
