    How busy will Camino Frances be in June, 2023?

    FYI Plan accordingly..... There is a huge music festival in Monte de Grozo right outside of Santiago the weekend of June 15-17 called O Son do Camiño. Easily over 20,000 attend. Very limited places to stay in Santiago and surrounding areas and very expensive $$$.

So I took a deep breath, regrouped and booked a hostal in O Pedrouzo ($80 euros) 20 km out of Santiago on the Frances route. So I'll walk...

    Weight Loss

    I am in my 60's. I do not lose weight easily in general. I don't over eat on the Camino, but I do eat well. I lose about 2 to 3 lbs per week. : -) Over the 6 weeks walking, I lost 15 lbs.

    top tips for a first time walker

Sometimes I didn't need a full rest day and would walk a short day, like 10k if possible. Listen to your body. It's ok to "lean into your edge". Your "edge"...

    Traveling from Paris to St Jean by train on Weds June 8.

    With all the flooding, I am wondering if the trains are running in Paris from the train station in CDG airport? I am traveling on a SNCF train from CDG airport to Bordeaux to Bayonne to SJPDP. Anyone traveled through Paris in the last couple of days?
