Time of past OR future Camino
(2018)
Hi! I'm Kyösti from Finland, starting my first Camino in the beginning of April, with my husband Tomi. I´ve been thinking about Camino for maybe about 20 yrs, and now, having leave from work, I'm going to try. Let it be one, ten or 100 days. I wish to walk and meditate and just be in peace all the way until Santiago de Compostela. However, I´m not young anymore, and I have many diseases. But my husband, with a long history of sports, is reasonable, and keeps on saying that we´ll walk as long as it it is worth it and it is safe, and gives us what we need. Looking forward to see...you all there :)
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

I wish you both well. Have you considered the Ingles route? It takes 5/6days and is a full route - that is a start and finish rather than joining, say, the Frances ar Sarria.

Best advice I've seen on this forum recently ... "listen to your body, and love your feet."
