Hello From California!

Time of past OR future Camino

Hello All - I’m JR from California and am planning my trek this fall, 2021. If all goes well, I should arrive in SJPP on 16/09. Like many others, I hope to find out why I’m drawn to this experience during the experience, although for now, I’m using a ‘0’ birthday as the rationale. Looking forward to meeting other pilgrims and sharing the adventure. Buen Camino!

Hello from Los Angeles.

Buen camino.
 
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.
Welcome JR. Love Cambria! Formerly from Coronado! Now in Maine...Brrr! I can assure you there will be lessons learned, perspectives gleaned, friendships kindled, and memories that will whet your appetite for more excursions. Enjoy the anticipation of it all...that’s half the fun! Buen Camino!

Walking Northern Spain will remind you geographically of California - you’ll really appreciate why the Spanish settlers saw our home as the New Spain way back when. If you walk the hills and valleys of our state, you’ll be well-prepared for the path you’ll follow there (both mentally and physically!)

If you make it up towards Sacramento, give us a shout out and we’d be happy to meet up.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Another welcome from the Great Commonwealth of PA where "it's always sunny ☀️" (well at least a suburb of 😉)
Good luck with your plans and Buen Camino 👋

In California too, I used a "0" birthday as my rational in 2015, my first Camino CF, and I haven't stopped. I too booked my flight for Sep. My flight is to Lisbon, with a layover in Madrid, I will decide later where to get off, when I find out where I will be walking. I have my fingers crossed....

Hello JR! There’s a couple of APOC (American Pilgrims in the Camino) chapters in Northern California that got many of of us inspired and all set to walk the Camino. Such great fellowship with lots of group walks and forums and presentations of Camino experiences. Perhaps see if there is a chapter nearby where you live. You may need it upon your return for Camino withdrawal....Buen Camino! 👣

Hi, I live in Fresno. PM me with your phone number and we can talk. It might help.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Hi JR. and welcome to the forum. I am from Perth in Western Australia.....won't be walking any Camino routes this year, but, thinking maybe sometime next year if our borders re-open for International travel. Hoping to get my first CoVid Vaccination next week. :)
 
Welcome !!

Projected date looks good, as you should be avoiding the later 2021-2022 respiratory diseases season.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
