Hi,
I have just joined the forum as I am in the very early stages of planning my pilgrimage. I'm from the USA. I've known of the Camino for years - several acquaintances have completed it - but only recently have I felt "the urge" to walk it myself. This will be my first pilgrimage on the Camino.
After reading several comments this morning I am inclined to walk the Via de la Plata. I will be happy to gain a Camino family as I walk, but crowded conditions are not what I'm hoping for. When I walk distances I am usually alone and do not mind the solitude.
I'm an artist, a writer, a mother, a grandmother, a wife, a walker, and also a pilgrim when I am led to be one.
Thank you for allowing me to be a member of the forum. I look forward to reading posts in the days to come.
Many blessings,
hiker mom
