Hi Terry,

We start our pilgrimage from SJPP on Aug 30th. Hoping to meet many Canadians and other nationalities along the way. Perhaps we will connect.

Buen Camino!

OK. Looks like there will be a canuk representation, but maybe outnumbered by Aussie's.
I wonder if they walk it backwards?

Hi, I am planning to walk out of SJPP on Sept 8 2013, and based on my experience on my first Camino in 2009, you will come across lots of Canadians during your walk. Just look for the Tilley hats! Have a great walk, eh?

Hi Terry,

I just got back from the camino (finished July 13), but hey! I lived in St. Thomas for about seven years during my adolescence. How funny to see someone from there on this forum!

Have a fantastic walk...I'm currently grappling with the reality of being back.

Cheers!

Hi Joan, as a former Courtenay boy I return your greetings! I am walking out of SJPP on the 8th Sept., no doubt see you on the trail.

See you there!

I like the saying that appears under your name. A variation on that theme has become a mantra for me ... even as I walk around the house thinking of those first two days especially. Joan, I keep telling myself: Step at a time ... just keep thinking a step at a time.

Safe travels.
