All these messages are getting me so excited to start my Camino! Having made the decision to walk the Camino in August 2013, the past year has gone so quickly. Just over a month to go now, starting from SJPDP on 4th August.

Or it could be the longest 11 months of my life!! However long it takes to get there though, it will be worth it in the end.

Hi everyone, I'm in the early stage of planning my Camino and I will probably be starting from SJPDP in August 2014. It's a long way off but I'm already excited! Neil Edinburgh, Scotland Buen Camino!
