I am joking of course.
It's been quite the opposite.
Such an amazing experience in fact that there is a little voice that i can hear, just a whisper, deep inside me somewhere saying "Nobody else needs to know... keep it to yourself... maintain the camino's best kept secret... tell them all...
Hi everybody,
This forum has been fundamental in our preparation for the Camino Primitivo! Julija and I both appreciate all of the help from each and every one of you, and are really thankful for the wealth of knowledge made available here to use.
