The best thing you can do to answer these questions is to read the forum. They're discussed in detail and once you've read a bit you can come back and ask specific questions.

Good luck!

I depart St. Jean September 18th or 19th. If you use the search field and search packing list, boots, back pack or any thing else you will find a ton of great information. If you need a packing list I have two from others that have done the Camino before and will be happy to forward to you. Hope to see you!

Buen Camino!
 
Hey Paddy,
I take you are 27 yrs old
If you can pass your university exams then don't worry about the camino
They don't teach this in a book.
Can you remember your first week in uni ??
This will have a bigger bearing on your life.

We have in Oz at the moment 60% of uni guys/girls taking a"" leap"" year .
That is up from 10% in 2000.

Enjoy Lass and safe travels. you will have a ball,
Buen Camino,
David

Hi there,
I'm on that flight from Dublin to Biarritz on the 17th, just beginning the packing now, cannot believe I'm off for two weeks with this tiny bag!! Maybe we could travel together to St Jean and share the cost of taxis etc?

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
I think that there a few travelling on the same flight from Dublin. I plan on getting the bus to Bayonne (via decathlon to pick up a few last minute bits if needed), then I plan on taking the train from Bayonee to St. Jean at 6:30pm.
