Dear Pilgrim Friends.
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this here, so (moderator) feel free to move or redirect if this is the case.
I have recently written a preparation guide to the Camino. It is a complete beginners guide which is to be used to complement your Brierley guide (or book of choice).
I have walked many miles on the Camino and plan to walk many more. My love for it has grown and grown with every Camino and I've been spreading the joy amongst UK friends and family ever since I took that first step. In fact, if anyone starts me off talking about it, I can't stop. I thought I may as well write down all my advice and tips and see if it would be any use to anyone. I really wanted to write something that wasn't patronising and gave a real insight into a typical day of a pilgrim. It is not intended to be used in isolation, but I hope it may at least help settle the nerves of a new pilgrim. If you know anyone who is thinking of setting off on their first Camino, this might be the book for them. It is mainly geared towards the Camino Francés and staying in albergues but covers other routes too. The link is below.
