- (2019) Camino Frances by wheelchair
Hi there, I'm Dan, 41 and from Yorkshire in the UK. I'm currently excited and starting planning for travelling the Camino Frances next year. I work in IT support in the NHS.
I first heard about the Camino de Santiago only a year or so ago and wanted to do it but didn't think it would be possible for me (I'm a full-time wheelchair user), however I've done a lot of reading since then and realised it should be do-able with a bit of planning.
My main motivation for this is as a challenge to myself, to see if I can make it but also to take some time out for reflection - recently I've become quite cynical and seem to be turning into someone I don't like very much but have no idea what is going on. If I could manage to turn that around and return to being the person I used to be that would be great.
I look forward to planning, travelling and maybe even assisting alongside you all.
