    The July experience of Camino Portuges, Coastal

    I'm very intrigued by this thread. It's been mentioned that this route is quieter, but since one aspect of the Camino that I love is the community, are there still many people walking? Should one expect to be on their own for several days? Am planning to start my next Camino in about a month...

    Hi all, I'm Shawna and very excited to join the class of 2012, as I just bought my flight today to start on August 23! This is my second camino (did Astroga to Santiago) and haven't decided where I'll start this time, but am thrilled to be headed back and start planning again.

    How do you manage to get out of work for 5 weeks?

    I second the advice to ask your boss and see what they say. As a reference point-I am in the U.S. and my company has a generous paid-time off policy by U.S. standards (I get 30 days, including sick and vacation time, not counting whatever I carry over from the previous year). I didn't walk...

    Hi Lisa, I used to live in Norfolk-we were practically neighbors! (I'm in DC now) Are you arriving on October 6th? Or Sept 6th? If it's October-that's my birthday as well! I'm not sure when I'llbe finishing exactly, but it'll be right around that time. Regards, Shawna

    Class of 2011

    Our plan says that we should be in Rabanal del Camino on that day. If later on the journey you see two backpackers with Costa Rica labels, say hello! Ultreya! I will definately say hello! Not sure what identifiers I'll have yet but I hope to run into you.

    Class of 2011

    I've been lurking on these boards, getting loads of answers to my questions (this place is an amazing resource!) so I thought I'd say hello. I'm coming from Washington, DC USA and am planning to go from Astorga to Santiago starting September 26th. I'm beyond excited! I actually just decided to...
