Perfectly said Terry! I'm going to actually slow down and enjoy my time there. I'm going to listen to my body completely. I have no expectations as to whether I finish or not....I just want to really enjoy everything I experience without rushing through life for a change!

I'm flying to madrid on June 11th and acclimating myself there (also sightseeing). On June 13 I'll take a train to Ponferrada and start the Camino on the 14th. Train arrives in Ponferrada in about 4 1/2 hours (at 3pm). I've never taken a train before.

Ok so it does get that crowded. If there's a chance I may not have a bed I'd rather reserve ahead of time then. I just don't know if I'll make the distance I planned for daily. My body can be unpredictable.
Hi there!
I hope someone with experience in walking the Camino Frances in June can help me. I'm going to start in Ponferrada on June 14 and was wondering if I need to make reservations now at albergues? Or can I just be a walk in? What should I do? I really want to listen to my body. I'm...
Well I still hope to see you! I'm just going to listen to my body and not rush though any of it. I rush everyday and I'm so tired of it. I want to actually SEE everything and appreciate. Smell the roses so to say or even the wonderful aroma of hardworking sweaty pilgrims lol...we will all...

I will be connected to the forum and taking a phone as well. I'm getting a Spanish SIM card at the airport when I get there so that I can call ahead and reserve albergues at times. I would so like to keep in touch! I also frequent Facebook under Belinda Laura Cantu in San Antonio...
I'm doing this for my first time and ALONE. I'm already practicing and have backpacked with my full backpack for 6 miles without feeling too tired. I just haven't had time to hike longer. I'm only planning on 10 miles a day more if I can but I'm not pushing myself. I'm so excited about...
I tried to post when you commented on another post but I don't think it replied to your post so here it goes again......I'm starting at Ponferrada on June 14 and I'll only be doing about 10 miles a day so hopefully our paths will cross! I too am going to Barcelona afterwards. I'm not rushing...
I'm starting on June 14th at Ponferrada and I don't have any urges to speed through it. I'm thinking 10 miles a day so I can really enjoy everything. Hopefully our paths will cross!
I'm so excited! I'm starting in Ponferrada June 14! I'm going alone and hope to join anyone who is willing to have great conversations! I'm not stressing about how much I walk. I want to enjoy each and every moment! I hope to make many friends along the way!
