Class of 2012
Hi Sharon, I'm another Aussie planning to walk from Le Puy in August 2012! Having walked it one and a half times, I want to challenge myself for my 40th birthday! It will take some planning again, but I'm already starting! Hope to meet you on the Camino! James (Melbourne) :D- aussiejames
