Hi everyone, my name is Kate and I live in Brisbane Australia. I first visited Santiago de Compostela in September 2002, but that trip along the Camino Frances from St Jean Pied de Port was done by car. I am now just starting to think about doing the real thing and walking the same route. Hopefully I will be looking at September 2009. Seems a long way off I know, but it's amazing how quickly the time passes when you are planning something like this. I have been back to Europe twice since that first trip but have not been back to Spain. I am an avid walker but when I do the trip I will be 60, however, I refuse to let that put me off. I am looking at my pilgrimage as a celebration of 60 years on the planet. I am also looking at it as a way of overcoming all my fears, because I figure that if I can successfully complete the Camino, then I can do ANYTHING! So bear with me please all you seasoned pilgrims, I'll be asking lots of questions and I only hope that my questions aren't too dumb.
