Like.
From my perch at Zabaldika, I can agree with you. Early in the morning I have a spot where I sit, and can see many of the pilgrims coming from Zubiri skirting the field that leads to the area de descanso. I am not really sure why so few take the... -
Lavonne-S reacted to Ultreia et Suseia!'s post in the thread wondering where to start, and if I've trained enough with Like.
My podiatrist told me that the test of fire is to make a a three-day "pretend camino" at home: using all your gear and going home as it was your camino accommodation because it's not the same to walk 10k here and there as opposed to a few days of...

At any point in time the Camino is populated by several thousand introverts all trying to avoid each other. I’m one. It’s fine.

I'm a solo traveler, an introvert, so the idea of a Camino family doesn't appeal although re-meeting people along the way sounds great. The whole purpose of this walk is to have time finally to think and feel about a lot that's happened to me...

I have a feeling that the buses from Pamplona to St-Jean can only be reserved within a month or so. I have run into that problem before, finding that there was no bus information. Try again a bit closer to the date.

We usually live very independent separate lives, so being so together was intense & in the early stages we did have a lot of full on arguments as we navigated what worked for us. Some things that helped - when I wanted to stretch out, me walking...

I get it that she doesn't want to miss out, and wants to walk together. That is what you both set out to do so her feelings are understandable. But a blister on a pinkie toe is hardly a show stopping serious injury - many (most?) of us just...

Grousedoctor, I appreciate your post more than I think I can express at this late hour (1am in Spain!). It's a good reminder that I need to get back into therapy when I get back to the States. It's difficult to keep track of other people's...

Chicago Seeker, my first CF was done solo! Very different from walking with your life partner. Walking alone, I could be as self-centered as I wanted to be. Caminos 2, 3, 5, and 6 were with my wife. My solo Caminos weren’t better or worse than...
