I am considering doing the camino Frances from the start heading all the way to the Atlantic towards the end of June and I was wondering if anyone fancies a walking buddy - I'm very outgoing and im not overly used to be being on my own much in life. I am finding my biggest hurdle to commit to getting on the road is the thoughts that I'll be alone. I know at times once I get going having my own space and time to reflect will be amazing and im not looking someone to hold my hand just it would be nice to do the journey eith someone and to know I have someone around me
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Hi Rongil!
In the Camino Frances, I believe you will actually find a very good balance between "alone" and "having people around". Actually, the latter will probably be much more common, as it is a very busy route.

Being an outgoing person, you will quickly find a lot of friends along the camino. Each albergue, cafe and water fountain is a new opportunity to meet people! :D I am pretty sure you will find a walking buddy in no time, and will reach Santiago with an awesome Camino family.

Buen Camino!

Here is a pic from 2016, I love the simplicity of the sketch map and directions "1 km climb up, 5km flat, 5km down". I wonder how the prices are now?
