    Nancy and Jan from Alaska

    Indeed it did! The heather was abundant and so the hills were purple and glorious. I live in Manchester so am spoiled by being an hour or two away from the lake district, the pennines and snowdonia!

    Guitars on the Camino

    Hello! I'm suddenly wishing I could take a small guitar along with me for my 6 week camino. But I realise this is impractical. I think 6 weeks without being able to play will cripple me. I'm a songwriter, and wish to write whilst walking. I love the idea of evenings spent strumming away whilst...

    Roncesvalles worrying

    Thank you people of the forum. I have to say, I feel incredibly reassured after reading your posts. I think I just need something to be nervous about. I know that once I am there, I will be so stuck into doing the camino and talking to people that all of these worries will fall away. Thank you.
