Hi all,
We have 12 days this year to devote to the Camino (Aug 25th to Sept. 5th 2013) and we are thinking of doing 9 days of walking in 3 sets of consecutive stages with 3 days for travel by bus/train/taxi between stages that we don't walk. We are not doing this as a physical challenge - for us this is a personal spiritual journey - our son passed away last year and we (his parents) want to walk in his honor, to have time for peace, contemplation and connection with each other and others on the journey. So we are really looking to walk the stages that are most conducive to that kind of experience. We have not yet booked our travel so could start at any point on the Camino. Any advice for us on where to start and which stages we should walk. Many thanks in advance to you all!
