Very interested to hear how it goes, I hope to start on a similar date next year arriving in to Santiago on the 27th which will be my 30th birthday :-)
I was going to go at the end of September to avoid the heat and crowds (even though they're not as bad on the primivito) but I can no longer go then, what's the latest I can go this side of the summer to get the same effect? Late May? Or would it have to be earlier?
Hi D, I've been completely inspired by your post and have downloaded both apps tonight in the hope that I'll get to grips with them before I go in my camino in Sept.
How did you decide which app to use for each picture? And tips?
Give me a DSLR any day, give me a fancy app and I get all...
I'm in the UK and am planning on walking the primivito in Sept, is there somewhere easy to get a pilgrim passport there or should I get one before I set off?
I've been reading and researching online a lot but I prefer actual paper books. I know there are many for the Frances route, are there any for the primivito and if so where can I buy it from? Thank you x
Wow, thank you Laurap, that's so helpful and exactly the type of info I needed. I'm very grateful to you for taking the time to write all that our for me! x
Anyone used barefoot hiking wear? I only ever read good things about barefoot shoes and buy them for my kids so wondered if using them for the camino might be an idea!
Hi, I am hoping to walk the camino primivito in sept but I have a very restricted diet. Will this be possible?
I have natural yogurt, oats and fruit for breakfast, protein (eggs/cheese/meat) cooked vegetables and salad for lunch and dinner.
Obviously I won't want to carry much with me so...
Thank you all for the input, I shall get searching and reading!
Olivares I love Paulo Coelho, especially the alchemist and the pilgrimage...his experience of walking the camino. :)
I think from what I've read I will go for September which is just over 6 months away, very exciting!
Hi, I've decided I want/need to walk the camino.
I've only had a brief look through this forum and seen so much good info and am enjoying reading throughit all.
Are there any good books that people would recommend? I want to go with little planned and prepped but I will need maps surely...
