Hi there, fellow pilgrims!
My name is Ryan and I begin the Camino Francés in just a few days. I've just finished my baccalaureate degree in philosophy here in Montréal, Canada and I'm looking forward to spending time away from school.
I hope to keep a video blog on YouTube which will document my progress along the Camino, and I'll try to link to it here in this thread (when I get it going).
I'm doing the Camino to challenge myself, build self-confidence/esteem, and find direction in my life. I'm afraid of bedbugs, being perceived as rude or boring, and how I'll adapt as a vegetarian in ham & tuna-loving rural northern Spain.
I had planned on a more hedonistic Euro-Trip after graduation but I think this will be more lastingly valuable.
My first language is English and my French is pretty good, but I'm just starting to learn (Castilian) Spanish through Duolingo.com. I'm a proud new member of l'Association québécoise des pèlerins et amis du Chemin de Saint-Jacques, so that's the badge that I'll be sporting on my backpack.
Please introduce yourself if you see me along the way.
Buen camino!
