First camino Sept-Oct 2018

[Luc007]

Hello fellow pilgrims and pilgrimettes. My name is Luc. I am from Ottawa, Canada and am planning my first camino for mid September. Looking forward to being a member on this forum and enjoy your many posts and pictures. I do have questions and will post them in time. If you click my picture you will see me and my dog Maya. Maya sadly passed away last week. She had been my constant companion for 12 years. Buen Camino!

Hello! I'm sorry about your dog.
Which Camino will you walk? If all goes well, I will be on the Frances around mid september. Have a great time preparing and this forum is awesome for that!
Buen camino!

Buen Camino! I walked at that time in 2015. It’s a fabulous time to walk. Harvest time in the wine making regions is marvelous.

Buen camino! Perhaps we meet on the way. I'm planning to walk from SJPdP around 15 September .. Almost cannot wait.

My friend Kathy and I will look for you. We leave SJPP on Sept 13th. Also from Canada.

Maya looks like such a fine dog and sounds like she was lucky to have you too. Have a great Camino

Thank you for the replies. I will be leaving Ottawa on September 17 so will probably start at SJPP on the 18th. But nothing is confirmed yet. Right now I am training on 5-7km walks on most days. I will gradually increase that so to prove to myself I can do 25-30km/day before I leave . I have an artificial hip and some arthritis but my doctor gave me the green light.

Buen camino,
Luc
