    Solo first timer from SJPDP 1st May

    Solo first timer from SJPDP 1st May

    Hi Jimmy, A fellow Tipperary solo walker here! I'll be leaving SJPDP on the 15th of May so I wish you a bien camino! From reading other people's posts, arriving early, before the albergue opens, seems to be the thing, so it may be worth while to be on the road at half 6 to get to the next...

    Thank you for all your advice and kind words Rachel! This has really helped! €35 the first night?! Are all places as expensive as SJPDP, or are the nights of €5 beds a thing of the past?

    I want to send postcards home to my parents so they can share the experience as well. I don't smoke or drink so I hope it is a manageable budget! Are bikinis okay to swim in while on the camino?

    Hi all! I booked my flights for the camino about 3 months ago, I'm from Ireland and this is my first time doing something abroad, completely alone. I'm leaving behind my boyfriend as he needs to work to pay for college. I'm arriving in SJPP on the 14th of May so I can't wait to get started...
