This may be a strange question, but I wanted to hear others experiences and thoughts on the matter. I came to the camino alone but I met and have been walking with the same group of pilgrims for the last week or so. They are amazing people but I feel like I may be missing out on meeting others...
SJPP to Roncesvalles is completely doable and the sense of accomplishment is amazing when you finish. Though a word of caution: I highly recommend trekking poles and having practiced a long distance hike in a fully loaded pack before attempting it. I'm 21 years old in good health and have never...
Thank you everyone for all of the help. Things are getting better after a day of rest. I'll be taking one more day just to make sure I'm good to go then it's off to the camino once more.

I'm a first time pilgrim traveling solo and am due to arrive in SJPP on May 12 and am planning to start the camino on May 13. Where should I stay in SJPP? I'd like to stay as budget friendly as possible but I'm not arriving till late afternoon so I don't know if some of the less expensive places...
