    Le Puy and Frances compared

    I walked Le Puy to Muxia (had to take a taxi to Finisterre because I got food poisoning in Muxia) September to late November this past fall. It was my very first camino, and as a first timer on Le Puy I absolutely adored it. I think we have tendencies to be colored by our first experiences. I...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    I absolutely loved it! I had a wonderful experience. Everyone was so kind and patient and friendly. I knew enough French that I could communicate reasonably well. Kind of. I had a few nights like you describe, but most of the time at least one person knew some English. I did get much...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Thanks for your posts. I will make sure to pack food, and I'm hoping to get demi-pension as much as I can.

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Thank you for that insight. I don't really know what to expect, but I think I'll be ok. I do know a very little French, but it certainly won't be any help around a dinner table. I'm looking forward to walking and being alone in my thoughts, so I think the Le Puy will be a good beginning for...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Thanks for your input. I've decided that I shouldn't worry so much about not going as far as I might be able to. I've given myself plenty of extra time, so I should just relax and not worry about it. I will follow what others have said and try to reserve ahead, but it is nice to have your...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    @JohnSD Thank you so much for your wonderfully specific answer! What type of accommodation did you get? Did you ever do DP, or did that not work with your style of walking and not reserving ahead? I am a bit nervous of planning exactly how far I'm going to go in a certain day ahead of time...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Thanks! This is all so helpful. I know things will work out, but knowing a bit more of what to expect sure helps. I'm definitely planning on attending the morning mass. I didn't know about the evening meeting. I will be arriving into Le Puy late on the 1st, and planning on spending the...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Thanks, I appreciate the replies. I have some basic French. I took 4 years in high school, which doesn't mean much, but I know basic grammar and enough vocabulary that it will probably help. I'm nowhere near conversational, but I won't be totally lost, only mostly lost. :) As long as they're...

    Typical day on the Le Puy route?

    Hi, Everyone! First time camino and I'm starting in Le Puy on Sept. 3 and going all the way. Since I've never done it before, I don't really know what to expect, and I'd like to be somewhat prepared. I will also be going by myself. I found a thread that talks about what to expect on the CF...
