Camino Frances October 23
Hi Everyone,
I made a decision in early January this year to walk the CF in September and then found this forum online.
Thank you to Ivar for the forum and to everyone who contributes be it questions or answers. It has been an incredible source of great information to work my way through. I also have a laugh at times too.

I'll be starting out from SJPP on Sept 16th, staying at Orisson the first night. My plan is to take my time the first week to see how I travel. I've held this desire to walk the Camino for many years and I'm excited that it is now becoming a reality. I'm looking forward to the people, the sights, the food, just everything.
Buen Camino
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

I agree totally with your sentiments. I am leaving Auckland New Zealand now to start my Camino next Saturday. Excitement would be an understatement!

I too was planning to start from SJPP on Sept 16 and stay at Orisson the first night. However, not one but two health issues have surfaced unexpectedly and my doctor advised me to cancel the trip, which I did. So I will be thinking of you on the 16th and the others who will start with you, and wishing you all a happy, safe and eventful journey. It's very emotional for me to write this!! (I am also grateful to Ivar and all the people who have added to the discussions. I have been glued to this forum.) I send you a very big Buen Camino.
 
My plan is to take my time the first week to see how I travel.

Probably the wisest approach for a new pilgrim. That first week is all about working out the kinks, getting into a routine, reorganizing your pack, etc. Too many folks blast right out of the gate, underestimating the climb over the mountain, their body, or feeling the need to "keep up with everyone".
 
Orisson is a good idea, the place is welcoming and always jam packed! Make a reservation from the website or see you in Roncevalles!
