    Class of 2014

    Today is my day. I leave Minneapolis, fly to Dallas, then to Madrid, then to Pamplona. I will spend the night there, and bus to SJPP on Saturday. On Sunday I will begin my walk to Orisson, and then onward to SDC. I have learned so much from all of you here on the forum and hope to meet many...

    19 Years and want to walk the Camino

    There are MANY people who are over 60 and walking the route. There are people with chronic health issues walking the Camino. There is no predetermined distance that you must walk each day. Especially on the Frances route there are numerous albergues all along the way, so you can stop when...

    Leave London Saturday 17th May to St Jean pied de port

    I do believe that you can just show up. I'm coming overseas and wanted to try to plan for a bit of jetlag. Spain is 7 hours ahead, so it's going to take a little adjustment, and I might not be functioning cognitively as well as usual. lol I do have a reservation in St Jean because I was...

    Leave London Saturday 17th May to St Jean pied de port

    I understand and respect your choice not to do any planning. Planning is both fun and a necessity for me. Yes, I'm one of those personalities. lol A lot of people who feel like the first day might be too much for them physically, try to break up the day and stay at Orisson. I'm not in great...

    Just add an event. There will be subject line and a text box. Put in the boxes Jann or itsjann leaving sjpp. Below the text box is a date for the "event." Be sure that that date is the date you leave. If you have troubles just let me know and I'll put it on the calendar for you. Some of...

    Class of 2014

    I think you should have as many songs as possible on your i-Pod. I also think you need playlists for different purposes. You need one playlist of VERY upbeat songs to get you down the road another couple of miles at the end of the day. You need a playlist of relaxing music. You need a...

    nervous but excited

    Denise, I'm starting in SJPP because it felt like that was the right thing for me. If that's what you want then go for it. The Frances route is the busiest of all the routes and people are going to be around if you want them to be. You will meet up with people for breaks, for meals and when...

    nervous but excited

    Hi Denise, I'm originally from Calgary but now live in Minnesota. I'm walking in May-June on my own. By walking alone I thnk I have a greater opportunity of meeting others who are also walking. I like the ideas of the freedom and adventure of doing it alone, but I also love the thought of...

    Wynne, a lot of people have suggested this place http://www.corazonpuro.es They will pick you up in Pamplona, let you stay at their place and then even drive you to SJPP. I wish I had made reservations with them, but had already made non-refundable reservations elsewhere. Buen Camino

    I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you looking for a place to stay in Pamplona or a place in SJPP? Or something else altogether?

    I'm a couple of days behind you xin lol, starting on May 18 from SJPP but if you take a rest day somewhere along The Way, perhaps we'll get to meet. Buen Camino. Pennie

    I'm in Apple Valley, Minnesota. We're well represented on the Camino this year by the sounds of it. :) I'm starting in SJPP on May 18. Too bad we're unlikely to all meet up on The Way. Maybe in the fall we'll have a state side get together. Buen Camino. Pennie

    May 2014

    Larry and Des, you're a little ahead of me, but I'm hoping as I become more fit later in the walk, and if you two stop for a couple of rest days, I might catch up to you. I hope I get to meet you. Buen Camino. Pennie
