Dear All,
I am fairly new to this forum and am still getting to grips with how things work. I suppose the questions I am about to ask have been asked many times before, but I do appreciate everyone's patience in taking the time to answer my question where they have insight to offer.
• First off! I will be arriving in SJPP on the 28th of March so most of the pilgrimage will take place during April, how is the weather during this period and would I require special clothes, jackets/pants etc., to deal with the climate? I wish to take on the pilgrimage in the most basic of ways, that is, I want to keep things as simple as possible - I would rather leave some things at home then taking excess weight which will burden me during the walk. Things such as a sleeping bag, camera, towels, soap, medicinals and first aid kit and the lot…
• Secondly, since I have been infected by the incurable desire to travel and have dropped out of school with the sole intention to so, I am not bound by a return ticket, nor am I running against time and so I really do wish to give things the time they need. In so doing I wish to spend some time as a hospitalero. I'd like to share the camino experience with as many people as possible and I'd love to help them in their walk. I think this would enrich my experience by many folds. Other than that I believe that this option can save me some money. Can anyone please clarify this point please, and give me some tips on how to act as a hospitalero.
• Finally, Id like to ask whether anyone is planning to go on the camino next april. I think it would be cool to start sharing the experience even as early as today, with regards to how preparation is going, training, what you're taking with you etc.
Anyways, hope to hear from anyone soon.
much love,
Karl
