    Hello!

    Tia, you have great information. Dinosaur footprints...Roman ruins, Paleolithic Caves and the beauty of Spain. It all seems like gravy to this anthropologist on top of the deep spiritual experience. I have been talking to former Pilgrims in my area and most of them have done 2 or 3 Camino's...

    Hello!

    Ellen, we may overlap. I am an anthropologist by training and I want to detour up to Altamira to see the caves which may add a week to my journey. I also want to go to Muxia and Finisterre at the end. Do they have a Canadian Pilgrims of the Camino group in Alberta? They just started an American...

    Hello!

    Ellen, I am 56 and plan to walk the Camino solo too. The Camino definitely "called" to me, 3 months ago it wasn't even on my mind and then I saw "The Way" and realized I wanted to do it. It had been buried on my life list and forgotten as I raised my kids (10 years ago I read Shirley MacLaines...

    Introduction

    Kay, I am going to walk the Camino Frances starting Aug 31, 2012. You sound like you are in way better shape than I am at 56. I am starting to train and learn Spanish so hopefully I will be ready by then. I live in Vancouver, Washington and I have been contacting anyone who says they are going...

    Hello!

    Camelle, I just checked the post and saw that you are planning a Sept/Oct Camino. I live in Vancouver, Washington (not B.C.) and I plan to leave St. Jean Pied du Port on Aug 31 (it is a full moon that night and for some reason that seems a cool time to start a journey). Let me know if we might...

    Continuing to Muxia or Finisterra

    I am hoping to do the Camino Frances next September and want to go all the way from Santiago de Compostela to Muxia or Finisterra. There seems to be little information about the distance and conditions along the way. Can anyone give me info about the route and compare Muxia to Finisterra...

    I am sure it will be perfect timing for you, things always seem to work out the way they are supposed to. I haven't started getting gear yet, but will start Spanish lessons in a week! Have a wonderful Camino. Jenny
