Good Morning,
For the first time my Camino plans include someone from start to finish. My daughter has asked to join me this year to walk the Portuguese from June 3 to 17 Porto to SdC. As a bonus we will spend 3 nights in Porto prior to walking to Vila do Conde on the coast June 3rd. We will...
Simply the Latin name (real name James) on my first compostella in 2008. The others have Jacobum but I signed on to the forum prior to my second Camino...I'm in crisis! Jacobus vs Jacobum, forus vs forum????
Starting the Portuguese from Porto Aug 5, 2015, followed by the SdC Finisterre Muxia SdC route followed by the Ingles having bussed from Santiago to Ferrol.
I admire the determination :)
On Feb 3 2014 I suffered my second heart attack. I had previously walked the Camino 3 times and used those Camino experiences to inspire myself to rehab and regain my health. On AUG 8 2014 I started my fourth and completed it in Sept on the very day that the bike...
Buenas Dias,
I will be undertaking my 4th Camino leaving home Aug. 4th and starting el camino frances from Pamplona on 6 Aug. I have walked the frances in 08 and 09 and did the del Norte in 2011. This year I will seek to make the frances a new experience by taking "alternativo's" where possible...
Hi Again...
Just reviewed the forum again and noticed a theme of angst surrounding the Pyrenees.
In 08 when I first did the camino I too experienced the anxiety of doubt about my abilities. A pilgrim (should be a saint in my view) convinced me that to miss that part of the journey would be...
I have started the planning for my third Camino. This time the Via de la Plata from Seville to Astorga and then Camino Frances from Astorga to Santiago. I walked the CF in 08 and 09 both times starting in mid Aug ending in late Sept.
Looking forward to hearing from anyone with Camino...
When I completed my first Camino my first name, which is James, was entered on my compostella as Jacobus. No way says I, is this name going to be available on the forum based on the fact that Sant Iago was also Jacobus. I'm glad I decided to try as it worked out.
I will start my second Camino Frances at SJPP. Departing Ottawa Canada Aug. 8, 2009, arriving Paris then Bayonne then SJPP Aug9. Walking commences Aug 10th in the wee hours.
Buen camino
Jim
Thanks to the very clear instructions...here I am! I think everyone will recognize that this is taken overlooking the route at the top of alto del perdon. August 2008.
Regards
Jacobus (James)
Just tripped over this forum. Looks like a very useful tool for planning but more importantly for venting some of the positive energy associated with the Camino.
I walked the Camino in 2008 from SJPP to Santiago and was hooked prior to my arrival in SJPP. I'll do the same Camino starting in...
