    Leaving SJPdP Sept. 7

    Hi all, I wanted to check in and see if anyone is departing SJPdP on Sept. 7. My husband and I have each walked the Camino Frances (me in 2015 from SJPdP and husband in 2016 from Pamplona) and now we are getting the opportunity to walk it together. We can't wait to take this journey together...

    NOK Cream (Blister help)

    My husband and I are going to do our second Camino leaving Sept. 7 from St. Jean. My first Camino was in 2015 from St. Jean to SdC and my husband's was in 2016 from Pamplona to SdC. I had some issues with blisters as my feet are soft and no matter what I do, I can't seem to toughen them up. I...

    Brierly Guide

    Hey all - hope everyone is well. My husband and I have each walked the Camino Frances (me - May 2015, hubs - Sept 2016) and we are planning to do it together this fall. I've been looking for the latest Brierly Guide (or at least trying to find out when the next one will be released). Amazon has...

    Prayers requested

    Hi all, My husband is walking the camino and was in Calzadilla de los Hermanillos on the Frances route. Another pilgrim, who he's crossed paths with throughout the camino and just had a communal dinner with this past Saturday, passed away during the night. The pilgrim sharing a room with him...

    My husband starts Sunday from Pamplona

    Hi to all!! My husband, Joe, just left from Florida this evening and will begin his camino in Pamplona on Sunday. I walked from St. Jean to Santiago last May/June 2015 and now it's his time. If you see a tall (6'2") guy with a big floppy hat (I know that describes many) that answers to Joe from...

    Water question

    Is the water along the camino safe to drink or would it be better to bring my steripen (a UV light to treat water)? The steripen isn't heavy but I would need to bring a couple extra batteries and it's weight I would rather not have to have. I leave in 1 week (oh my goodness) and am so excited...

    Starting May 13 from SJPDP

    Hi everyone, I will be starting my camino on May 13 in St. Jean. I plan to walk to Orisson and stay there for my first night (more to get my legs under me). Anyone else starting on the 13th? I can't believe I'm leaving 2 weeks from today to begin this amazing journey. I look forward to meeting...

    Is September/October a good time to walk?

    I've been reading about "the best time to walk". I put that in quotes because this is different for everyone. My husband and I are planning to walk in September/October 2015. I've read some posts that say you can't get a bed in September. Others say you will have no problem getting a bed...

    What's the best way to get to St. Jean Pied de Port?

    Hi all, My husband and I are planning to walk in the fall of 2015. I've read numerous posts about getting to St. Jean Pied de Port and wanted to know your thoughts. I know there are options but would like to know how you arrived in St. Jean and what you thought of that part of your journey...

    Help with an Altus Poncho

    My husband and I are planning our first camino on the CF in September 2015. I've read many things about the Altus poncho and decided this was the poncho for me. I contacted Barrabes because all they had in stock was XS. I'm almost 5"10 and the length is too short. Barrabes said they would...
