    Facebook Page for Authors of Camino Related Books

    My sister and I co-wrote "The Way of The Piney Sisters" and self-published this May. The book is an account of our pilgrimage on the Camino Frances last May (2013). Does this entitle us to join this Facebook group?

    Camino Frances books and reassurance, especially for the over-60's

    I have read on the Forum how some would-be pilgrims are scared before setting out on the Camino Way and I can sincerely empathise with them as I felt huge anxiety before setting out with my sister in a very cold May 2013. We were both in our sixties and retired. We were not especially fit and we...

    Jane and Charlotte amaze friends and family when, in retirement, they decide to walk the Camino Frances.
