First timer to the Camino. My trip is now booked!

[sharion]

So I’m a little nervous as well as excited. I’ve just booked my first Camino. I’m travelling on the 7th October and will start walking on the 8th from O Cebrerio. I’m doing it alone so would love to make friends along the way!

Welcome to the forum!

October is a very nice time of year to walk - although of course you need to come prepared for any weather condition. You might want to add a post to this thread, and moderators will add your name to the October calendar. You can also see who is starting "upstream" before you and might be passing by when you are walking.

You have chosen a great time of the year to walk. O Cebrerio is one of my favorite stops on my Camino's. This is probably because of the relief after the steep climb to get there. It is easy to say don't be nervous, but you will find that you had no reason to be. Buen Camino!

Thank you, from everything I’ve seen on YouTube and forums it’s super friendly.

You might try the CAMIGAS group on Facebook. It's a place where women find female walking partners on the Camino.
