I would like to respond to your post - I talked with a few people, and started following this forum, once I decided to walk the Camino Frances. My friend and I trained, and prepared well. By day 3 of the actually walking, I was frustrated - why did people NOT tell me how physically...
The one thing that caught me off guard (didn't upset me, though) was when people would say "Have fun!" Now that I'm back, people will say "Did you have fun?" I wouldn't call the pilgrimage fun, necessarily - physically challenging, yes (limping into allergies at the end of the day)- amazing...
My friend and I just completed the Camino de Santiago, Frances, on October 25, 2016. About half way through the Camino we spent two days in Leon, and got scalloped shells tattoos - the tattoo artist used my actual Camino shell and some on-line pictures to create our shells. We love them!!!!
