    Is the Camino too crowded now?

    Excellent comment! Thank you. Makes sense...

    Is the Camino too crowded now?

    Not sure you got the essence of my message, but that's fine. I am not judging, as I mentioned and will not judge your comment... But it is not just what I read on the Internet, it is a fact that the Camino today is way busier than 10 years ago.

    Is the Camino too crowded now?

    I walked the Frances in 2013. This week is my 10th anniversary of starting what remains one of the most special event in my life. I was reflecting on this, as I remain informed and attached to Forums like this one,... and as well, I am planning on going back and exploring the Podiensis, before...

    Finding this a bit lonely

    For sure, staying at albergues and having dinner with other pilgrims is the way to meet people. Also, doing this means you start walking in the morning with others…

    Le Puy, here we come!

    OK, I see! For me, from Ottawa, Paris is about the same, actually about $25 more... So Lyon it should be... except when I think about it, never saw Paris, so could be cool. On the other hand, I don't have that much time on my hands on this trip is not so urban oriented... Paris will be another...

    Le Puy, here we come!

    I am curious... I am also planning a start in LePuy July 1st this summer. I come from Canada was planning to fly to Lyon and bus/train to LePuy (seems like about a 2-hour bus). Why Paris? A couple of people on this thread said Paris - agreeing it is probably more attractive option than Lyon, but...

    My Camino on LePuy in July 2018

    Salut tout le monde, After my first experience doing Camino Frances in November/December 2013, I am now planing my second experience and will leave from LePuy July 1st weekend 2018. If anyone is leaving on or around this date, please connect and we can discuss. If any have advice or info about...

    Hi!! When are you planning to go?

    Hi!! When are you planning to go?

    Very dissilusioned. Can't wait to finish

    That's sad - sorry about that. But I wouldn't throw away everything for one experience. Generalizing is never good. You may have just been unlucky. I bet you do you Camino France next year and it will be lot different. My two cents anyway. :)

    Terrorist threats in France

    Heu... thanks, but that's not what I wanted to hear!!

    Terrorist threats in France

    You are all right, and that is the way I was thinking... when you have children still at home, and look at them at night, you then run all sorts of things in your head... Leaving tomorrow and this is really bugging, which usually it shouldn't... I know it is because of my son's presence in my...

    Terrorist threats in France

    I was nervous about leaving, but now with the extended high security warning by France government, and all I read on this today and yesterday, I am wondering if it is a good idea?? I am coming from Canada, landing in Lyon on Thursday. I am not worried about the road itself, but Lyon Airport and...

    Shouldn't it be two different types of credenciales (pilgrims' passports)?

    Who cares, really!! :) In fact, behind the majority of "walkers/finishers", there's a spiritual/Christian sense... even if they deny it. The Camino changes you in some way and can start an interior road to something special, spiritual, christian...

    First Camino - Le Puy in September: A couple of Questions.

    Hey Mike!! Great stuff, great info above... the only thing that raised a flag to me in your initial message is the 22lb of your backpack. One of the best advice I had received before leaving for my first Camino in 2013 was to bring minimum gear and keep weight as low as possible. Opinion...
