Hi, my name's Brenda and I'm from Australia. I'm doing my very first Camino starting mid-October this year, all by myself. I must admit, I'm a tad nervous, and feel as though there are a million things I should know. At the same time, I'm happy to discover them along the way. My main problem is getting the weight of the pack down! I'm 56 and want to start at St Jean DP. Seems like stopping at Orisson 1st day would be the way to go. Someone, anyone, give me some tips!
