Time of past OR future Camino
I am in good condition, though i felt on mu back few months a go but i think i still can do it
Hello, I am planning to do the camino within two weeks from now.
I coming from Gent (Belgium), getting to Paris is easy, I checked the trains from Paris to Bayonne which it could be 5-12 hours depend on which train day or night. But the problem is i couldn't find any site or time table to trains/ buses to SJPdP from bayonne.
Maybe i am not in the right path of searching . any help to find the way to there is more than welcome
Thanks,
Ali
